Ryan Porteous insists he will keep his full focus on football amid intense speculation on his future – even if his pet dog has long since switched off!
Stevie Clarke ’s debut cap picked up from where he left off against Ukraine in midweek with an outstanding display in
Dingwall as the Hibees climbed into fourth place in the table after a comfortable win over Ross County. The plaudits rained down on Porteous after his fine show in Poland helped Scotland climb into Europe’s Nations League elite but his biggest fan – pup Pablo – just wasn’t interested.
Porteous said: “I am just back from the Scotland trip and I’ve seen the dug – that’s about it. I don’t really get out much. My mum said he wasn’t interested in the Scotland game. I am gobsmacked. He is Pablo – Pablo Porteous. To get him to watch me, I might have to score two. He’s my biggest fan but he just wasn’t interested.”
