Excellent today. Won his Arial duels and put his head in the way of a rocket shot. Put Brown on his arse with a great tackle. Get this new contract done and dusted please. No coincidence that a new manager comes in and the defence look more stable and players return to form.

Showed Lennon how much of a ridiculous mistake he was making by keeping him on the bench.

Build the statue - what a leader and legend

Never gave Hayes or Sinclair or Forrest a minutes peace. Snarling into them every time and a marvellous leader. His Berwick is sacred and I hope he had plenty sun cream on it 2nd half.

Literally everything, every stand, the stadium, every staff member, suite, toilet, manager and player should be renamed david gray. Only thing that should remain is the name of our club.

Amazing player who has nothing to prove to Hibs fans - yet week after week he gives performances like that. If Hibs don't build that statue, we might as well switch the lights out.

An absolute colossus today. You could see he was knackered and bruised but continued to give his absolute all until the 95th minute. Total man crush!

Thing is, Sir David is well harder than any statue of him will be

SDG was immense today. That tackle on Broony wis a thing of beauty.

Anyone got the video of the tackle?

Right in front of the East Stand - standing ovation.

Will be a moment I won’t forget.

He was street wise around 80 mins going down (to get physio on) to take the sting out the game.

Outstanding. Warrior of a man. My motm but can totally see why Rocky got it. Hope the ball is okay after getting skelped by SDG’s coupon

Off to B and Q for a trowel in the morning.

I'll build the statue myself and I've never laid a brick in my life.

He's made of teak. Or titanium. Or something. Almost getting better with age as well.

Great performance.

Get the statue built and the new contract signed. :aok:

Second best game I have seen him playing for us 😂 Fantastic as was the whole back four and goalie of course 🇳🇬

The ultimate professional. I am just enjoying watching him play for Hibs as long as I can. He will be a player that a lot of people talk to their children, grandchildren and great grandchildren about in years to come.

I’ll never forget his performance on 21/05/16.
The statue should be built and named
“The colossus of Easter Road”. It should stand as tall as the stadium, made of solid gold, apart from his head, that should be made of diamond, the hardest substance known to man. What a guy.

Leaves everything on the park week in, week out. A true captain.

I'm a bit concerned that lately, he seems to be involved in a concussion incident almost every game. That won't be good for the longevity of his playing career or overall health.

He seems to require medical treatment every game, but that is mostly down to him being an absolute warrior but I agree hopefully it isn't affecting him.

It's why we love him, but it may shorten how long we can appreciate him in a playing capacity for.

David Gray is proper Hibs - will miss him when he’s gone, but hopefully still a few more years of him to enjoy. Hoping Sportscene feature his tackle on Brown in their highlights.

A colossal captain who embodies everything I would want a Hibernian Captain to embody. Legend gets banded about a lot these days, but he absolutely is.

Nah, he needs to score the winner versus Hertz before the status goes up.

Who do we play next?

Was going to suggest we should name a stand after him but let’s rename the whole city. E-David-Gray-inburgh.

Was immense again today.

What i I like him is his professionalism - he never feigns injury, never tries to get a fellow professional booked through rolling around, doesn’t get involved in nonsense, gives 110% every game; he is a proper honest player who does his talking on the pitch and is low profile off it. A great Captain.

To be fair to Scott Brown today he got straight up after the DG cruncher and made nothing of it.

Seems awfully coincidental that our form was good at the start of the season when he was in the team and then improved massively since he returned to the team.

Give him whatever he wants to sign on imo.

I just can’t get over how amazing he was today. What is it about him? He’s not that skilful, he’s not that fast or mobile, he’s not that tall ... but he’s just immense..especially on days like today. He was marking players far more mobile and speedy than him but he managed them to the point that they just lost heart.

Id probs give him a 3 year playing contract now but you know he’s got a job for life at Hibs.

Horgan is looking like he’s glad he is not in that one.
