Hibs centre-back Siobhan Hunter said it was a great honour to represent her childhood club following her 300th appearance for Hibernian during our 5-1 win against Montrose.
On the milestone appearance, Hunter stated it remained a privilege to play for the club - especially on occasions such as this.
“I'm over the moon. To represent this club is a huge honour for me and my family," Hunter started before continuing. "So, to do it 300 times is really nice.
"It was also nice to get the result in the end. But it was a really nice milestone and I’ll take that away.”
On the game itself, in which Hibs were pegged back early in the second half to level terms before a rush of goals ensured the Hibees walked away with all three points, Hunter was pleased with Hibs' patience.
“Montrose did well. They dug in and frustrated us a little bit.
"For us, it was about being calm and being patient on the ball. These thinngs will come. You saw that in the second half.”
“We waited and waited, but eventually we got the goals in the end.”
Hunter was also pleased to see the long-awaited returns of both Club captain Rachael Boyle and forward Rosie Livingstone.
The pair made second-half cameos after being sidelined for 19 months and six months, respectively.
“It's fantastic. Just those two individuals in particular – their quality and the people that they are means it’s great to have them back. They’re two fantastic additions to the squad.
“They’ve both worked very hard over the time they’ve been out and it’s so pleasing to see them back out on the pitch.”
Looking forward to her side's upcoming match against Spartans next Sunday, Hunter believes the squad can keep the momentum going as long as they keep their effort levels high.
“It’s all about working hard. We’ve got a new week and a new game to come.
"We’ll all be working hard to get into the starting XI next time.”
