Mackay was celebrating the big five-oh - but it was more ‘oh-no’ as he accused the whistler of missing a blatant foul moments before Jake Doyle-Hayes hit Hibs' opener in their 2-0 win.

Mackay fumed: “The biggest thing that displeased me was the foul for the first goal.

“I think everyone saw it clear as day on the big screen from behind the goals - the angle straight on doesn't see it but the minute it goes behind the goals, you see Bushiri just clipping Harry Paton's heels as Paton goes to block the shot.
