Hibernian William Hill Premiership

Nick Montgomery sacked as Hibernian head coach

The 42-year-old departs after Sunday's 4-0 loss to Aberdeen

Hibernian have sacked head coach Nick Montgomery after eight months in charge.

The 42-year-old joined the Easter Road club from Central Coast Mariners in Australia but departs following Sunday's 4-0 defeat to Aberdeen.

David Gray will take charge of the team's final two cinch Premiership fixtures, starting with Wednesday's home match against Motherwell.

Hibernian sit in ninth place in the table with 42 points from their 36 matches. Coaches Sergio Raimundo and Miguel Miranda will also leave the club alongside Montgomery.

In a statement, the Gordon Family said: “As a Board this was not a decision we made lightly, but felt it a necessary one to move the team forward. Although Nick and his coaching team worked tirelessly, their efforts didn’t deliver the results we had hoped for.

“We’d like to thank Nick, Sergio, and Miguel for all of their hard work and dedication, and wish them all the best for the future.”
