PATIENCE STILL REQUIRED WITH KLIDJE

DAVID GRAY will continue to be "patient" with Thibault Klidje after Hibs' record signing marked a bright first start for the club with the opening goal in yesterday's 2-0 win away to Livingston in the second round of the Premier Sports Cup.

The 24-year-old Togo forward, left, was pitched in after being restricted to four substitute appearances since his seven-figure transfer from Swiss side Luzern earlier this summer.

Klidje capped what Gray described as an "excellent" performance by glancing home a 43rd-minute header before substitute Josh Mulligan's stunning late strike secured victory and set up a quarter-final trip to Rangers next month.
