Former Hibs’ striker Jason Cummings has won the Sky Bet League One Player of the Month award following a number of impressive performances for Peterborough United.

Cummings has made an immediate impact at London Road following a loan-deal from Nottingham Forest, with six goals and three assists to help propel Posh to the top of Sky Bet League One.

The Scottish Cup winner spent much of last season on loan at Ibrox but moved to Peterborough in the summer.

Cummings said: “Any of the boys could have won this, so I will dedicate this to the boys as well. We have been unbelievable so far, and it is early doors so we don’t want to get too carried away, but hopefully it continues. It is the best start I have had so far and I am just enjoying my football at the moment.

“I am playing in my favourite formation, my favourite position, which is two up front and it is just like playing with your best mates. The boys are all down to earth, they are good lads and got good banter. We have just started so well and I hope it continues.

“For a striker I am getting chances every game. Fair play to all the boys who have been different class, I couldn’t have won this without them. They set it up for me, they’ve won me a few penalties, and made my life easy. I just tap it in at the end of the day and get all the headlines!”
