Scroll down and click through the pages to find out the key talking points from the press conference and the Scot's thoughts on a range of subjects:
Jack Ross faced the press this afternoon
"What Portsmouth have done has been fantastic, to lead the table so long and be consistent. They have been strong in terms of their results"
"I think it's like all games. Individually, they're not going to define the season unless it's the final game of the season and the outcome of that will determine where you finish."
"I would be hopeful that they will both remain at the club, and if they are remaining then we should know sooner rather than later."
"I don't envisage, or want to do, too much. If we can strengthen in one, possibly two areas, we'll do that. I'm conscious that we did a lot of work in the summer and rebuilt the squad."
