Match Thread [FT] Hibernian 1 - 4 Rangers (Tavernier 12pen; Colak 34, 58; Sakala 53)

After a poor start Tav had his best game this season.

Watching the highlights - not sure the FK hivs scored from should have been awarded a free kick.

 

Why did the Ref initially miss then need VAR assistance to award our penalty? Is he blind, stupid or something else.

If he can prove his fitness between now and May, Jack should be given a new contract, no doubt about it but we need to have more strength in depth there.

 

I think Gilmour would be the ideal signing to compete for that role alongside Jack.

I think I'm right in saying Ryan Jack now has 20 starts and 31 appearances this season, including 1 of each at international level, comparable with much of our first team squad and suggesting his injury problems are a tad overstated. He has definitely had his injury problems but still seems to be making enough contribution to warrant another contract, especially when you consider what he does when he is on the park.

One good game every couple of months doesn't warrant a contract renewal for Jack.  

I wish we could get rid of the vast majority of this squad.  

He's had a lot more than one good game.

Outside pressure has them terrified so best for them to leave it for VAR to decide.

In the past couple of months?

Yes, where have you been

[Gonzo79 13,609]

Been busy checking our recent injury record.

Jack is one of our most consistent performers, in a good way. If we think he is fit enough to keep playing to this level then I think we should be trying to keep him on.

How many appearances has Jack made during these two months you mentioned?
