Jack Ross rubbishes Hibs bitterness claim as new Dundee United boss reveals good-luck messages from Easter Road

Jack Ross says there’s no bitterness over his harsh Hibs exit as he dismissed suggestions he’s on a revenge mission at Dundee United.

The 46-year-old is back in management at Tannadice having been bulleted by Easter Road chief Ron Gordon in December after two years in charge with the Leith side His shock sacking came with the club sitting seventh and just 10 days before the 46-year-old was due to lead Hibs out at Hampden for the final of the Premier Sports Cup.

But Ross says he has brushed off that disappointment as he revealed he’s received good luck messages from both Gordon and Hibs chief exec Ben Kensell since accepting his latest posting on Tayside. Now he says his only focus is on carrying on the success of United predecessor Tam Courts, who led the Tangerines to a fourth-place finish last term. The new boss spoke at the plush Fairmont Hotel in St Andrews as he was officially unveiled.
