Connor Goldson opened up a can of worms during his post-match interview with Premier Sports at Hampden.
Last season’s Balon D’or contender had a nightmare performance on the park as Hibs won 3-1 to deny the SPFL’s newest club the chance to win their first cup competition since formation in 2012.
His howlers during 96 minutes were nothing in comparison to the after-match interview which confirmed every suspicion and rumour going around about the Ibrox squad.
Accusing team-mates of not having the hunger to win is a cardinal sin in any dressing room, especially one that Jimmy Bell works in.
Claiming that the match was over at 3-1 with 50 minutes left to play is a complete no-no in any professional environment.
The pundits on Premier Sport realised instantly the severity of what Goldson had said, so too did the team at Radio Scotland as they got second hand word of the after match comments.
At lunchtime today Giovanni van Bronckhorst had a big job on his hands, after losing to Hibs and hearing the words of his vice-captain the former Dutch internationalist may be walking in to an impossible task.
? “I don’t want to say this, but we’ve lost a bit of hunger”.

Absolute embarrassing interview from a guy that’s meant to be a leader

Certainly appears it’s not a happy dressing room. Steven may have just left due to a very unhappy squad and lack of funding in next transfer window. Rumours of wages not being paid on time and players being unsettled circulate, but you can’t really on a rumour to be true.

His head hasn’t been in it this season. Got away with it far too easy last season in the League. Personally I don’t think he’s a player I would say “Rangers Class”
Never puts in a tackle. The boy Porteous has made more tackles in today’s game than Goldson has done all season.

Scottish football doesn’t need them .
They would have killed us off , without a backwards glance , had it not been for Fergus!
They won league last year because we were WORSE than them .
Our board will do their best to help.
Not sure why the sevco players r getting a load of sh*tballs thrown their way, they were avg at best, and at the end of the day, they won a league that was handed to the herwoes so, they were hardly gonna follow that up…afraid to win a cup so fk sevco and fk any halfwit who follows sevco fc….stick your union joke klobber up your bam bam and a hey na na
Dont worry about the celtic board they’ll stay silent on the new club as they have since 2012 our board have let us fans done big time in the last 9 years especially when it comes to that scum at liebrox who tryed to kill us of in 1994 its time the celtic fans done something about our board before its to late.
