Lee Johnson urges 'fragile' Hibs to toughen up after Ross County inflict fifth defeat in six games

Lee Johnson bemoaned Hibs ' "fragility" during their 2-0 home defeat ro Ross County and shouldered the responsibility as they slipped to yet another loss.

George Harmon's goal in first half stoppage time gave County the lead after a fairly dire first half at Easter Road. Hibs huffed and puffed but created little and it came as little surprise when lex Iacovitti struck a second for the Staggies, ensuring the three points headed back up to the Highlands.

That's now five defeats in the last six for the Hibees. They've conceded 15 goals in the process and have gone from third to sixth in the table. They are in danger of becoming stuck in a real rut and with the Premiership action on hiatus for a month after the weekend, they'll have to wait a while for a chance to out things right should things go wrong at Kilmarnock this weekend.
