Hibs picked up a welcome three points away to Queen of the South on Saturday, eventually running out 3-0 winners at Palmerston Park in Dumfries. The ambitious side will need to win on a regular basis if they are to gain promotion to the Premiership at the second time of asking. Head Coach Alan Stubbs was pleased to see the side win by a comfortable margin, but admitted that he has high standards for his team to reach.
Stubbs said: "I wanted us to grab the game by the scruff of the neck and it wasn’t until we got that third goal that the game was won and it was more comfortable. But it says a lot when you’ve got a few negatives when you’ve come away from home and you’ve won 3-0, but we’re trying to set standards that are so high that players have got to really excel to achieve them. It’s another clean sheet which is fantastic and we’ve come to a place where it’s not easy to come – so we’re delighted."
