Gray Pleased with Players' Reaction

David Gray was delighted with his side’s 4-0 victory over Peterhead in the Premier Sports Cup and believes it was the perfect reaction following last week’s defeat.

A brace from Lewis Miller and well taken goals from Rudi Molotnikov and Nathan Moriah-Welsh ensured our place at the top of Group C.

Our Head Coach was happy with the dominant display and believes his players reacted well to last week’s defeat away at Kelty Hearts.

Speaking to HibsTV after the match, Gray showcased his enthusiasm as we approach the start of our Premiership campaign.

“Job done and we topped the group, which is what we had to do today, and it was a good reaction from the disappointing result at Kelty Hearts last week.

“We could have been a couple of more goals in front, and we mentioned that at half-time. We can’t have 6 or 7 chances to convert but it was really positive, and I’m delighted with the win and we’re in the next round of the cup.”

We face St. Mirren next Sunday as we begin our Premiership campaign, a fixture that Gray and his squad are fully prepared for.

“Full focus now changes to the first league game of the season away to St. Mirren.

“It’s a completely different challenge to what we faced in the Group Stages of the cup so far and we’ll make sure everyone is aware of that.

"We’re looking forward to it.”
