Damon Gray (born 11 July 1988 in Newcastle upon Tyne) is an English footballer currently playing for Scottish Premier League club Hibernian.

Gray started his professional career with Newcastle after impressing scouts with his play for Kenton School and Wallsend Boys Club. Gray was signed by Hibernian after failing to gain a senior contract with Newcastle.

He made his Hibernian debut as a late substitute in the 2007 Scottish Cup semi-final against Dunfermline in April 2007^[1]. Later that month, he netted his first goal in a 2-2 draw with Aberdeen^[2].

Gray was loaned to Scottish First Division club Partick Thistle in early 2008. He made his debut appearance as a substitute against Queen of the South. He then scored two goals for Thistle against rivals Clyde, and scored a notable goal in the Scottish Cup quarter-final against Rangers at Ibrox Stadium, helping Thistle to a 1-1 draw. Gray's loan spell was then extended until the end of the season.
