The on loan striker from Preston scored his first goal for the Millers with a header from Delroy Faceys cross early in the game against Northampton, but ended up on the losing side.

Hibbert told the clubs official website www.themillers.co.uk "It was great to score the goal thanks to a good cross from Delroy, it was straight on to my head, the kind of cross I relish. But all the lads were devastated that we didn't take three points as the game was there for the taking. At half time we were looking to score more goals but we seemed to take our foot off the gas slightly, we were disappointed as we felt we could have taken three points."

Speaking about the turning point of the game, Keanes penalty miss, Hibbert said: "The penalty miss was crucial and at 2-0 it would have been three points to us but it wasn't to be. It lifted Town. We all know we would have wiped out the points deficit with a win but hopefully it won't be long before we are back in the positive."

Looking at his time at Millmoor "I am enjoying my time here although perhaps I should have scored a few more goals but I am pleased that I am getting in the positions to score, the goals will come."
