Hibs post interests Hughes

Falkirk boss John Hughes has refused to rule out replacing Tony Mowbray as Hibernian manager.
The highly-rated young coach masterminded the Bairns' return to the SPL and, as a former Hibs player, is believed to be one of the leading candidates for the managerial vacancy at Easter Road.
Mowbray left the Edinburgh club last week to take up the reins at Championship side West Bromwich Albion.
"You never say never in football," admitted Hughes.
"I'd like to think people are looking because of the job I'm doing at Falkirk, not because I'm an ex-Hibs player or anything like that.
"But I'm 100 per cent committed to Falkirk Football Club and I have a real desire to take them forward, to catch teams above us and have been for a number of years in the Premier League."
