Not been a good week for this guy
Ross said: “You’ve just asked me questions about the first half and how we did well.
"I heard your interview (with Lennon) during the week and I think sometimes you’re a bit disrespectful to managers.
"I’ve explained the first-half performance and I’ve explained the second-half performance, in terms of it being about heart, character and guts, and how you do things in the face of adversity.
“So that would suggest that if I understood a lot about football, then there’s not really a tactical element that comes into that
“I’ve answered your questions fully and respectfully and I think it would be good if that was a two-way street."
MacIntyre replied: “Of course I respect you, Jack. I’m just trying to dig in for Hibs fans looking at that second half, you’ve got a very good squad here. I’m just wondering what went wrong in that second period."
Ross: “But wait a minute, have I not explained that several times already?”
MacIntyre: “I think you were talking about the character of the players, that they didn’t show up…"
Ross: “I didn’t say they didn’t show up. Are you asking questions and not listening to the answer? I've already explained to you.
“At the risk of repeating myself, we played well first-half, the second half we didn’t react well in any way.
“If you ask me the same question, you’re going to get the same answer, which would suggest this interview could go on for a while and get very boring for everybody.
“I’ve explained it and I’m accepting my responsibility because I’m the manager.
“I think your line of questioning is becoming a little bit tiresome, for want of a better word, and it’s about time you start to show greater respect, not just to me but for other managers in this job."
MacIntyre: “Well I think that’s unfair, I’m just trying to reflect what fans would want to ask, Jack…"
Ross: “But wait a minute, Kenny. You think that’s unfair. Sometimes I think how you speak to managers is unfair. So let’s just leave it at that.”
