Porteous needed dropped anyway. He was becoming a liability.

He’s made mistakes but I think liability is a bit of an exaggeration.

I think if a defender starts to cause loss if goals or even close to losing goals then liability is a description that would come to mind. I wouldnt say he was at fault for the goal at St Mirren but he did have a chance to recover the situation. In the most recent three games we havent conceded one goal with Daz on the pitch. Sadly Porto has been making costly mistakes for a while. I hope this period focuses him on how to concentrate on not making daft rash decisions.

Just because we win doesn’t mean we won’t make changes. We realised that mistake come the Livi and Ross county games at Xmas where we had run the players into the ground. Team needs freshened up most weeks, tweaks of the system/players to suit who we are playing against. I’d expect at least one back in next week.

Ross seldom changes a team if they are winning and all fit ....

It will be interesting as I’m sure the club will want them in the team and doing well so their value doesn’t drop and they earn us decent money.

But if the teams winning then our hands are tied.

Theyll need to up their game from the levels they were at before dropped.

I’m sure he’ll have realised his mistake from Xmas time though when it was clear it needed rotated and the players hit a brick wall. Lots of players on the sidelines to make tweaks here and there to keep it fresh.

Think Nisbet should have a look at English championship table. Birmingham beaten again yesterday. Two points above second bottom but they have a game in hand. Lucky escape for him. Play well at Hibs, possibly in Scotland squad for the Euros and then big money move in 2023.

That makes sense and I'm sure that was the plan agreed to by all parties. Sign a 4 year contract and after two years all going well we won't stand in the way of a big money move.....

Do you consider his last minute goal against Celtic a while ago?

I’m a big Nisbet and Porteous fan and delighted that Hibs have kept a hold of them.
Obviously Jack has kept them both out of the starting 11.
You reckon it’s because we are winning so don’t change or is Nisbets head still spinning? It’s interesting to see how the man management of him and Porto goes. I’m hoping they come back hungry and with a point to prove.

I think it's just down to not changing a winning formation. Doidge and McGregor have both stepped up to the mark in our last couple of games - both looking good in that 3-4-3 formation. If the team had under-performed against St. Mirren we may have seen a change of line-up against Aberdeen - they didn't and I think Ross was proven correct to stick with the winning line up. I'm sure we'll see both Porteous and Nisbet back starting before long though - they are quality players and will push their way through.

It was allegedly £2.4 million. Probably no chance add ons taking it to £3m e.g. if promoted.
If it had been £3 million straight. Hibs would have taken their hand off.

The £2.4 million was probably full of conditions as well

£2.4 million was in installments.
