    Hibs Fans React After Celtic Loanee Efe Nets Maiden Goal : Give Him A 20-Year Contract
    Hibernian fans were delighted after Nigeria national-teamer Efe Ambrose netted his first goal for the club in their 2-1 win over fellow promotion-chasers Falkirk on game week 30 in the Scottish Championship on Saturday.
    The central defender broke the deadlock in the 75th minute when he headed past goalkeeper Thomson and celebrated in acrobatic style.
    Hibs fans took to social media to praise Ambrose :
    Kyle Hall‏ tweeted : “Hibs 2 Falkirk 1, big result! Goals from Efe Ambrose who got his 3rd man of the match in a row and a screamer from @jameskeatings!”
    Sandy Irvine said : “Get efe ambrose on a 20 year contract”.
    @Leitch91 stated : “I can tell my Grandchildren I seen efe Ambrose backflip in a Hibs top. What a day.”
    Laura Ainslie‏ commented : “Efe Ambrose celebration

    Rachel Thomson stated : “Oh Efe Ambrose oh he is so Wonderful. When he scores a goal it’s beautiful, magical

    @aedancrilley tipped the Nigerian defender to win the Golden Ball, tweeting : “Efe ambrose ballon D’or”.

    Efe Ambrose has only featured twice for Celtic this season but don’t expect the out-of-favour defender to slam his Premiership-winning manager Brendan Rodgers.

    The defender, who has been named as the Championship Player of the Month, describes the Parkhead boss as a father figure and is effusive in his praise for him as a man as well as a man manager. But it is at Hibernian, under his former Celtic manager, Neil Lennon, that Ambrose has been given his playing opportunities this term.

    An own goal in a friendly against Barcelona, as well as a role in the team’s embarrassing European defeat by Lincoln Red Imps, led to Ambrose being castigated by Celtic fans and, while he had one more appearance, against Astana, he was soon surplus to requirements. Stagnating on the sidelines, he says, was disappointing but he insists that while he was shunned in a playing sense, Rodgers remained a positive influence.

    “He didn’t ignore me when I wasn’t playing. He’s a great man, a father and a friend to everyone,” said Ambrose. “He treats everyone as family and everyone equal. It’s not just the players in the team that matter, it’s the squad that really matters to him.

    “Every time people come to training they want to play and that helps the other players get to the form they have today. He gives credit to everyone, even if you’re not playing. If you need help he’s there to listen to you. He’s always there to teach you and to correct you. For me, he has been a very great man and a great help to me in my career. I have learned from him and the coaches. So, he has been great for me.

    “But, coming here, I have been delighted, nothing more than to just show what I can do and what I have learned.

    “The best way to show that is to play games, which I couldn’t get at Celtic but I can get here.”

    Hibs might get him permanently in summer- good move for both parties. He's a good CB but not a Celtic CB.
