You didn’t let anyone down, Ryan

Jacko one of the few to stand tall....

Ryan Jack has certainly emerged from the Old Firm debacle with his head held high, even if he doesn’t feel it, and while he believes the players have let themselves and the fans down, he’s one of the few who didn’t.

The returning midfielder, who stormed an excellent second half cameo on his recovery from a long-term injury, was the only player to speak to the media after the match, with captain James Tavernier and vice-captain Connor Goldson nowhere to be seen, as the Scotland star instead stood up to be counted both on the pitch and off.

And his comments, much like Scott Arfield after the shambles at Hampden v Hibs, minced no words and didn’t try to dress anything up as better than it was.

Like Arfield, he’s one of us, and like Arfield, he is hurting as much as anyone, and like Arfield he had absolutely no airs or graces, no b*llsh*t after the match because he knows how it feels as a fan to be fed cock and bull.

And he certainly, absolutely, did not let anyone down for his part whatsoever.

We need more like him.
