The Story in 60 Seconds

Hibernian manager Marink Reedijk admitted to having a sick feeling in his stomach after his side slumped to the bottom of the Scottish Premiership table. The 35-year-old Dutchman has lost both of his opening matches in charge, most recently falling 2-1 at home to Falkirk on Saturday to extend Hibs' winless league run to six games.

Despite controlling 70% of possession and generating more chances than Falkirk, Hibs suffered their seventh home league defeat in a row. Reedijk insisted his players worked hard and showed signs of progress, but the club faces a challenging upcoming schedule that includes fixtures against Celtic and arch-rivals Hearts.
