Jim Goodwin will regret Ryan Porteous Hibs 'dive' claim with 'unfair' pop by Aberdeen boss blasted

Kris Commons reckons Jim Goodwin's inexperience as a manager showed in his scathing criticism of Ryan Porteous at the weekend.

The Aberdeen boss was raging at the decision to award the Hibs and Scotland squad defender a penalty kick at Easter Road that resulted in the visitors being reduced to ten-men after a second booking for on loan Celtic man Liam Scales. The Dons went on to lose the game 3-1 with Goodwin labelling the stopper a 'diver' for his role in the spot-kick.

Hibs chiefs are also said to be unhappy with the former St Mirren manager over his comments post-match with former Celtic and Hibees midfielder Commons also stating his claim is a very 'big statement' to make about a player while he reckons he may well regret his comments about the 23-year-old. Victory for Lee Johnson's men made it back-to-back league triumphs and pushed them into sixth spot - one point ahead of Aberdeen going into the international break.
