Sorry if been posted already but i just noticed this article with reaction from Ben to yesterdays loss, pretty harsh words but nothing that everyone else is not saying. Good on Ben.

So refreshing seeing an interview from a footballer that is actually interesting. The interview pretty much echoes what the majority of us have been saying about the game - it's beautifully honest compared to the normal generic **** we usually hear from our players.

IMO, Ben is the only real 'leader' that we have in our side at the moment.

Sign him up on an extension - he's not perfect but he's solid and it's rare we say he's at fault for any goals - compare that to previous Hibs keepers.

Can he not sign a pre-contract elsewhere come January ??

Maybe the Butcher factor may play a part in keeping (pun) Ben? He'll be old enough to hold Butcher as a hero like many an Englishman, no doubt?

I know it was probably a throwaway comment, but his point about "we are all playing for our futures" suggests to me that he is playing for an extension and not resting on his laurels that a bigger move is on the horizon

He said: “In all honesty, I think a few of the boys were playing with that in mind instead of going out and expressing themselves and doing what they are good at doing.

The bit in bold is a worry because they did exactly what they are good at, hiding, playing poorly, creating little and getting beat at home again !
