Ross County warn Hibs off Derek Adams

Last updated : 09 October 2010 By Steve Forbes

Ross County have today warned Hibs off of any move for manager Derek Adams.

Adams has been linked, along with about 100 others, to the Easter Road hot-seat, since John Hughes left the club last week.

Ross County supreme Roy MacGregor has said:

"There has been no contact with Hibs and I wouldn't welcome it.

"Derek has two years to run on his contract and his immediate future lies with Ross County."

35-year-old Adams was also quick to play down his chances of joining the Hibees, he said:

"The speculation doesn't surprise me - it's what you expect, given how well our club has done in recent seasons.

"When you win as many games as we do it is always likely you will get linked with jobs. But my only focus is on County."

Adams is one of a number of names linked to the job, with Steve Clarke and Michael O’Neill the current bookies favourites to take over from Yogi.
