At least Uncle Wattie being honest, and praising the mighty Hibees, as if the result wasn't enough!

Walter Smith's post match interview
Very gracious in defeat and showed a bit of class, unlike the whinging Neil Lennon. He stated we deserved our win and made a point of not making any excuses, unlike quite a few managers I can think of.....
I think our new manager is also in that vein and is quite composed and coherent in his interviews. His was a good one tonight too, not too overstated but clearly very happy...like the rest of us!!

I texted a Rangers mate, to be told that the fact that Edu and Papac weren't playing was a decisive factor in the result????

To be fair, I've nearly always found Uncle Wattie to be gracious in defeat.
Thought he talked a lot of sense and despite Chick Young trotting out the usual excuse, he refused to take anything away from Hibs.
Cheers Walter.They've only gone and done it! They've only gone and won the Scottish Cup! What kept you, Hibs?!

I've never found Walter Smith to be anything other than gracious in defeat. I know Rangers don't lose very often but any time they do, he always comes across as very fair.
Contrast that with Neil Lennon...

Yup, gotta give him credit, praised our performance and gave us the plaudits.
He does usually give credit where its deserved though, unlike his idiot counterpart from Darkheid! What a complete bawbag Lennon is, can he not just accept this anti-Celtic conspiracy???

Another reason why if pushed for a choice between those 2, they just sneak it. Anything unpleasant from them is out in the open instead of "feel sorry for the opressed underlings" Just my opinion right enough!

Ive always liked Smith, other than the fact hes the Rangers manager, hes usually pretty open and honest in his interviews.
As people have said, its the complete opposite of Lennon going nuts, screaming and shouting in his interviews, and blatingly making things up.

Apart fae leaving Scotland in the **** and managing Satan's 11, I'm sure he's a standup guy.
His most endearing feature is, he's NOT Lennon...
But, he's a hun...so he can GET IT RIGHT UP HIM anaw
ENDOF

Yip, full credit to Walter. He just accepted that it was one of these days, that Hibs played well, and made no excuses. It would be a bit easier to accept the Old Firm if everybody connected with these clubs behaved like that.

TBH I'd still take Walter back as Scotland manager in a flash. I know he wasn't manager for long, but considering how Vogts before him and Burley and Levein after him have done, he did fantastically well for us.

Probably the same virus that cost Hearts the flag at Dens all these years ago.

Just listened to it now and credit to the guy. I remember him wishing Hibs all the best after we beat them in the Skol Cup Semi-final in 1991 when he had just (I think) taken over. His predecessor wouldn't have. He has a bit of dignity, unlike Lennon and Strachan before him.

Uncle Wattie plays the Scottish media like an old fiddle (or should that be flute ) but he was indeed gracious in his praise of Hibs performance while getting his own wee "things are tough right now" dig in to remind the hun fans that they are, relatively for them, skint.
Lennon is a soor faced wee git.

Almost certainly he would have.
Smith is wise enough to know that whining after a defeat simply makes you look ridiculous. He may be Rangers through and through, but he does have the gift of courtesy.
Tomorrow I will try to be as gracious to my neighbours in the Caldera....
.... but I suspect that they'll be seeing the widest Doddie grin for a long time spread across my chops....
