Fenlon’s Hibs hopes up in smoke

PAT FENLON was denied a debut win as Hibernian manager after his team’s match against Motherwell was abandoned at half-time due to an electrical fire.

Hibs were leading 1-0 thanks to a 16th-minute strike from Garry O’Connor. O’Connor fired home after Leigh Griffiths hit the post.

Hibs were still leading when fans were asked to vacate the stadium after the teams failed to reappear for the second half.
