Neil Lennon’s assistant Garry Parker described yesterday’s performance against Kilmarnock as ‘shocking’ but he is determined put things right with a win over St Mirren on Wednesday night.

Kilmarnock moved to second in the table with a well-deserved victory although two power cuts when Hibs were in the ascendency didn’t help.

Speaking after the final whistle, a frustrated Parker said: “It was a terrible, shocking performance. They are good players in their own right but they’re not doing it at the moment. We could have been out there all day and we wouldn’t have scored.

“We came here to not get beat, be defensive and they scored straight away.

“We could have done with the lights going out for a third time and it would have been abandoned. It’s just not good enough.

“We did pass the ball a little better in the second half but the players have got to do better themselves.

” We have a game on Wednesday and you need that as soon as possible. It doesn’t matter who you’re playing against you just want to get back on the field and put it right.”
