Brian Easton hopes Hamilton Accies can make a fast start in their Scottish Cup third round tie with East Kilbride and "squash" any belief they might have of replicating Auchinleck Talbot's shock win at the same stage last season.
The Accies skipper was left stunned when West of Scotland League Premier outfit sent his side packing with a 1-0 win at Beechwood Park, almost exactly a year to the day of this weekend's fixture.
And he is determined to make sure lightning doesn't strike twice when Lowland League Kilby come calling, with Kevin Rutkiewicz's side potentially sniffing blood given Accies are bottom of the Scottish Championship and on a run of one win in 11 games.
