Lee Johnston insists his Hibs side earned the right to celebrate for stopping the rot after a week of getting slaughtered.
The Easter Road gaffer eased the pressure with yesterday’s 3-2 win at Motherwell – where Kevin Nisbet bagged a lethal hat trick. Hibs players partied on the pitch and in the Fir Park dressing room but Johnston is hoping the victory will spark a charge back into the race for Europe after being written off in the wake of last week’s derby drubbing.
Johnson said: “The win was the most important thing. The way the other results went, it launches us back in touch and gets us away from where we don't want to be. I didn't think the boys played with a lack of confidence which I was really pleased with last week when we were all taking a bit of stick and rightly so. We celebrated, both players and staff in the dressing room, and I think we can really be successful this season but we’ve got to keep chipping away and getting our best players minutes and getting them fit and we have to do our best to drive the club forward on the training pitch and off the training pitch.”
Nibset’s treble made it five goals in five games since his return from almost a year out with a knee injury. Aiden McGeady also shone on his first league start for Hibs and Johnson believes he has the firepower to climb the table.
He said: “Remember those couple of games before the break when I was annoyed at myself and felt I maybe should have played him. That was the reason why. It allowed us to give him the extra month to hone his sharpness levels and I am really happy for him. You need your best platers fit at any club but especially at a club of our size. It becomes really important that those guys play and deliver.
