Heads gone stuff from Ross after the match today. I actually quite like him but sometimes I do think he maybe believes his own hype a wee bit too much. 

Somebody connected with Hibs who believes their own hype ?

Noooooooooo. I refuse to believe that.

I’m not sure Jason Kerr is an international quality defender.

But then I hear Ryan Porteous being included in Scotland squads, and I think Kerr compares favourably.

I’ve put together a simple infographic which rates their respective qualities for anyone interested.  

It’s fairly basic, but I think it’s quite clear who comes out on top.

I'am very much looking forward to the inevitable Kerr and Porteous partnership at Hibs and for Scotland.

I could defend Ross after the first half but our efforts in the second 45 were atrocious. He’s then followed our pumping in another semi final with picking a bizarre fight with a BBC journalist because he asked wee Lenny a couple of difficult questions during the week. Odd behaviour.

Getting to the stage where I couldn’t care if the manager was punted (again).

Ross talking about mentality but he effectively ordered his team to stop playing football with his subs. The second goal was obviously a huge blow but Hibs had been so clearly the better team that he should have had faith that if they kept playing, they'd have a chance. Certainly more of a chance than just resorting to balls forward and hoping for a break. Poor management. He went into last 5 minutes mode with 40 minutes left.

Watched the Sunderland series this week on Netflix and there seemed to be a theme during Ross's time there that they would start big games well but absolutely blow it in the second half.

Same seemed to happen yesterday. Had that been a pattern at Hibs as well?

Also not really seeing him make players better. Merely just tries to sign a new player if Player X isnt really working out. Would that be fair?

Jack ross was great for us at championship level. The two seasons of the "great escape" and our championship winning season were fantastic.

However, there were indications at times, that if plan A didn't work, there wasn't really a plan B.

Martin Boyle looking like the player we had at Dundee again. What's happened?!

Same issue we have with MOH.

Hes predictable now on the wing, and isn't good enough to play up front.

Hibs should try him on the left to mix things up for him, IMO.

Big Brian is a poundshop Scott Brown.

Makes funny faces sometimes and is shite at football always.

Porteous is this generations Zander Diamond. Bursts on to the scene and throws himself in to everything. A real breath of fresh air.

A couple of years later and he's still throwing himself in to everything when he should be learning that there's a time and place. 

I haven't seen much progression. I think he's lucky to be a nailed on starter at a team as good as Hibs. I think this will be as good as it gets for him but hopefully I'm wrong

Hope Celtic are stupid enough to chase him. He'd be off in a flash and we can pick up some compo and not face the "careful what you wish for" brigade.
