Johnson left Hibs pointless in the league after three games and virtually out of Europe.
Lee Johnson reckons 'small margins' cost him his job at Hibs as the departing boss bids an emotional farewell to Easter Road.
But Johnson only had good things to say in a statement released by the LMA. He said: “I would like to thank the Gordon family for giving me the opportunity to manage this historic club, with a special mention to the late Ron Gordon, who was a great loss to us all. Johnson reckons the congestion of fixtures was a major factor in his demise as they had to overcome Inter d'Escaldes and Luzern just to set up the tie with Villa while balancing European games with their domestic schedule.
