Awards hat-trick for Hibs boss Gray

Hibs boss David Gray has completed a Scottish Premiership manager of the month hat-trick by winning the award for March.

Gray takes the prize for the second successive month having also won it in December.

The 36-year-old steered Hibs to a 2-1 derby win over Hearts and 3-0 victory against St Johnstone either side of a 1-1 draw at Kilmarnock in March to extend his side's unbeaten league run to 15 games and lift them to third place.

"I'm delighted - this award is a reflection of the run we've been on and all the effort that has gone into that," Gray told Sky Sports News.

"We've been through difficult times at the start of the season, but the staff, the players and everyone at the club has gone through real adversity and stuck together through that.

"When you think back to the start of December when we were bottom of the league, to get to where we are now is a fantastic achievement and we need to keep pushing forward."
