Straight after the match is without doubt the best time to catch the true feelings of a football manager- especially if they lose.

Rather than prepare thoughts about how the lads are obviously disappointed and ready to take the positives from the defeat the true emotions can be captured.

In the second half we absolutely pumped Rangers,” Neil Lennon told BBC Scotland.

It was a tough defeat for the Hibs boss to take with Lewis Stevenson’s early goal cancelled out by two strikes from the visitors just before half-time.

Hibs should have had a late penalty but for reasons that only Kevin Clancy and his assistant can explain David Bates got away with a clear hand-ball as Hibs pressed for an equaliser.

The result leaves Hibs trailing Aberdeen and Sevco by six points in fourth place, on Saturday Lennon’s side complete a demanding week when they take on Aberdeen at Pittodrie.
