Jack Ross says it was ‘hugely frustrating’ to drop points

Hibs’ Head Coach Jack Ross said that it was ‘hugely
frustrating’ not to leave Dingwall with all three points after taking a first
half lead against Ross County last night.
Dropping points from a winning position has been the story
of Hibs’ season and Ross is under no illusion that things will have to change.
Christian Doidge scored his seventh goal in five games
before mistakes in the Hibs’ defence allowed the Staggies to score twice
through Dave Stewart.
The result means that Hibs remain in sixth place, two points
ahead of Ross County and four behind Kilmarnock.
They face Aberdeen at Easter Road on Saturday.
After the game Ross said: “We didn’t play as well as we did
on Saturday but, similar to Saturday, we put ourselves in a good position and
were comfortable in the game.
“The equaliser was probably a turning point to a degree but
even then I didn’t think we were under huge amounts of pressure.
“To not win the game, or take anything from it, from a
winning position is hugely frustrating.
“We can’t hide away from the fact that we need to be better
at winning games from winning positions.
“In my short time here we’ve now had a couple of occasions when
we’ve been in good positions, Saturday and tonight and we’ve only taken one
point from six.
“It’s something we can’t ignore and we have to rectify and
get better at. If we do get better, then we’ll be in a good place.
“I have only worked with the players for a short period of
time so I have to look at what I have done first and foremost.
“It’s a collective thing, but the reality is the stats this
season speak for themselves in terms of losing too many points from winning
positions.
“Mindsets in sport are such an important part of the game so
if you keep giving up winning positions it is a worry, perhaps.
“The game is played with feet and also a lot in the head.
Acknowledging you have a problem is the first bit, dealing with it is the
trickier bit.”
