Hibernian sack David Gray after six-game winless run
Hibernian have sacked head coach David Gray following a 1-0 defeat to Kilmarnock that left the club ninth in the Scottish Premiership.
Assistant coaches also depart
Executive chairman Ian Gordon stated the board made this decision due to a recent downturn in results and performances. Assistants Liam Craig and Craig Samson are leaving Easter Road alongside Gray. John Potter has been placed in charge for Saturday's home game with Aberdeen.
Home losses reach historic mark
The defeat to Kilmarnock marks Hibs' sixth successive home loss, a streak stretching back to last season. This run equates to a club record for consecutive league games lost at home not seen since 1920.
Gray's tenure and history
David Gray led the team to a Scottish Cup victory in 2016 before retiring in 2021 after 177 appearances. He returned as head coach in May 2024 but won only one of his first 15 league games.
