HIBS has hilariously endorsed their star defender Ryan Porteous after two Rangers players turned him down full time in today’s draw.
The Hibees have taken to social media to shrewdly show their support for the 21-year-old.

Gers stars Alfredo Morelos and James Tavernier declined to recognize the young defender after referee Don Robertson blew the whistle full time.
The footage also showed Liverpool legend Gerrard speaking to the Scotland U21 star full time, with Porteous spreading his arms and laughing in the snapshots.
However, Gerrard has revealed that Porteous had accused the Gers captain, Tavernier, of being a “sore loser”, which irritated matters.
Gerrard went on to label the Scotland U21 international as “cheap” after the flash point.
But the administrators of Hibs’ official Twitter account have made a timely post to endorse Porteous.
They wrote: “Ryan Porteous. The best young Scottish central defender there is.
“Feel free to answer if you think we are wrong.”
However, they have blatantly turned off the comments on the post, which means that no fan can disagree with their statement.

“He was sent off for a bad tackle when he lost 3-0 against us here last season.
