Hibs boss: I let myself down with gesture

Hibs boss Pat Fenlon has admitted he let himself down as he reacted to taunts from Hearts fans with an offensive gesture which led to him being sent to the stand in the final minute of the Scottish Cup final.

He claimed his gesture wasn’t aimed at the Jambos as they chanted “There’s only one Pat Fenlon,” insisting it was merely a sign of his frustration as he watched his side demolished 5-1.

Fenlon’s action was spotted by fourth official Willie Collum and relayed to referee Craig Thomson – who had already angered the Hibs support by awarding Hearts a highly dubious penalty which led to the Gorgie side’s third goal.
