Hibs board 'Supports' boss Gray Despite Winless run

0


Hibernian's board has issued a statement saying it continues to "support" head coach David Gray despite a seven-game run without a victory.

The Leith side sit bottom of the Scottish Premiership, a point adrift of Edinburgh rivals Heart of Midlothian after both lost narrowly at the weekend.

Some supporters have called for a change of management after Saturday's 2-1 home defeat by St Mirren.

"We are disappointed with the poor start to our current season, like all Hibernian FC supporters," the board says on the club website.

"Following the weekend's result, we have held discussions as a group addressing how we move forward. We continue to work tirelessly in our quest to improve our performance and achieve the results we need on the pitch."

Gray took over on a formal basis during the close season after four spells in interim charge, including a brief stint late last term following Nick Montgomery's departure.

The 36-year-old former club captain has won five of his 17 games in charge so far this season, the last of those coming against St Johnstone on 14 September.

Bournemouth owner Bill Foley previously made it known his Black Knights group did not approve the appointment after taking a 25% stake in the club.
