Jonny Gray skippered Warriors into the Champions Cup quarter-finals
Jonny Gray says the Warriors came up with something "very, very special" after reaching the Champions Cup quarter-finals for the first time.

Glasgow progressed to the last eight after overpowering twice-European champions Leicester 43-0 at Welford Road on Saturday.

"That was something very, very special," said the Glasgow skipper.

"Reaching the quarter-finals is something the guys have been working hard to achieve. It has been a long-time goal.

"Qualifying is not just for the guys who played but for the guys who played in the years before - people like Al Kellock - and all the fans that came down.

"It was a special feeling and I am proud to make history. It was a team performance - everybody did their job really well. All credit to our guys, who stuck to our game-plan and did their job.

"For it to come together is special. We are proud to have qualified for everybody involved with the club and in the past."
