Hibs boss Lee Johnson has made it clear he will not accept 'mediocrity' and admitted he was BORED of watching the Premier Sports Cup defeat to Falkirk.
The Easter Road gaffer kicked off his reign in perfect fashion last weekend with a five-star showing in front of a home crowd in their opener against Clyde. Christian Doidge netted a hat-trick in the thumping 5-0 win but they were unable to replicate near that display as they went down to John McGlynn's League One outfit. Johnson has called the result a 'small blip' in otherwise a very good pre-season to date and admits he would rather have that kind of performance and result now than in two weeks into the new Premiership season.
The Bairns now lead the way at the top of Group D with five points from two games - with the Hibees two points further back. They face Bonnyrigg Rose this weekend before a clash with Greenock Morton and know they will need to win both to stand a chance of finishing top of the section and reach the last 16 of the competition.
