Ex-Sunderland man McAllister revealed after the game that Johnson had voiced his intention to make his way back to Easter Road for Hibs’ next Scottish Premiership game.
That prompted a stern warning from McAllister, who said that Johnson should be focusing on recovering from a four-hour operation.
McAllister, however, has predicted that the Hibs manager may pop in to oversee training soon, explaining: “He said he might pop in next week but his health is most important, and that he looks after himself.”
