FT: Hibernian 0-1 Kilmarnock
Hibernian head coach David Gray tells BBC Scotland: "It's clear to see, not good enough in terms of the result. We didn't create clear enough chances.
"Kilmarnock defended their box a lot better than we did. We gave up too many chances and some of our defending wasn't good enough, that's why we lost the game.
"The only way it turns is by putting yourself out there, sticking together and believing in yourself and trusting your ability."
When asked how he can change Hibs' fortunes, Gray responds: "One thing I will continue to is work as hard as I can to turn this around. I've been through adversity before at this football club and I will continue until someone tells me otherwise. I believe in my group and believe in what we're doing."
And whether he still has the backing of the board, he adds: "Until someone was to say something different, I will continue to do everything to turn this around."

Falkirk manager John McGlynn tells BBC Scotland: "I'm delighted for the players.
"They put so much work in there and played some excellent football and scored some good goals. I thought we were good in and out of possession.
"We have to be good as they [Hearts] have two lightning wingers who are absolutely flying and I am delighted to say we kept them fairly quiet tonight, which speaks volumes for the team and the way we set the team up.
"Absolutely delighted to get the monkey off the back and I think that'll kick us on now. It's just getting that first win.
"We have been gradually getting better, the transfer window has closed and we can just concentrate on our football and we saw the fruits of that tonight.
"The teams above us not winning, it's tightening up very quickly."

Motherwell boss Alfred Johansson tells BBC Scotland: "It's a mixture of getting punished hard from our opponents, together with the fact we had a lot of good scenarios that we like very much [but didn't make the most of].
"We found our 10s and wingers in behind, but we didn't manage to use those spaces enough. That led to unnecessary ball losses.
"The biggest mistake tonight, we start to stress, we lose our structure, we didn't remember the points we went over at half-time, we didn't look confident in our possession, and that led to ball losses again.
"We learn from it, we look forward. We know we can do so much better than this. It's a speedbump, a bump in the road. We will learn, all of us, and try to do better and make sure we're ready for Saturday."
FT: Aberdeen 0-4 Motherwell
Image source, SNSAberdeen head coach Stephen Robinson tells BBC Scotland: "I thought we were very, very good tonight, considering the efforts the boys put in with 10 men on Saturday. Great energy, good organisation and we set out to try and dominate the middle of the pitch and break on them and it worked well.
"The players have to carry that out and they did it with energy and quality, and winning games breeds confidence, and you could see that grow as the scoreline went up. The players believed in themselves and believed in the ability that we know they have.
"The discipline, the energy, the quality when we did break... We picked the passes, we bought passes at the right time to give us ownership, and we were clinical. We haven't been clinical, that has been an issue with us. When we had our opportunities we scored, and that's the difference between winning and losing games.
"There were a few that surprised me. I haven't seen Gavin [Molloy] score many but I thought he was terrific throughout tonight. Some really good performances and good goals. I'm delighted to see Ayoub [Mouloua] follow on from his penalty and you can see the confidence growing in the squad."

I think Falkirk were the better team for most of the game.
They had three of four chances they didn't take.
They had all the better players. Owen Eames and Seb Ross were terrific.

FT: Falkirk 2-1 Hearts
Hearts head coach Wouter Vrancken expresses his "disappointment because the performance was poor".
Speaking to BBC Scotland, he says: "When they [Falkirk] got the goal, it was all panic and it wasn't good enough. It is a mental thing.
"We had to match their energy and we didn't do that.
"We didn't take the responsibility when we had the ball. It was all reactive and, when you are reactive, you can't dominate the game.
"When you look at the goals, they are two presents. We didn't respond well. We didn't create enough."
Asked whether injuries to right-sided defenders and midfielders were causing problems, the Belgian adds: "We don't find excuses. Let's hope it is just a small setback."

FT: Hibernian 0-1 Kilmarnock
Image source, SNSAmazing result for Kilmarnock, first win at Easter Road in 12 years. Must be said that the refereeing from Ryan Lee was diabolical with several key decisions going against Kilmarnock. Roll on Sportscene...
Craig
Kilmarnock could have won by three or four and it wouldn't of flattered them. Hibs were so poor tonight. David Gray's position is hanging by a thread.
Kieron
The players on that pitch have to take as much responsibility as Gray for this result, nowhere near good enough. Amateur performance.
Stuart
FT: Hibernian 0-1 Kilmarnock
Kilmarnock head coach Neil McCann tells BBC Scotland: "Sometimes from the outside it's easy to not find positives, because of our points and the goals against us. But hopefully we've found a positive tonight.
"We know as staff how hard those boys are working. It's difficult when you're conceding goals and not winning games but my God, they kept going tonight. They showed there's a bit of steel in there as well.
"We were asked so many difficult questions tonight. At 2-0 up, it's taken away from us. A stonewall penalty on Joe Hugill, which would have been a red card, we don't get it.
"Our character has been tested. The fans were asking questions and voicing their displeasure at times. But we stood up to it. Nobody can say we didn't deserve it."

Speaking of Cheshire Cats...

You're not dreaming, Martin.
I'm watching your manager give his post-match reaction now and he's like a Cheshire Cat.

Maybe premature but the Mighty Dons announcing to Scottish football: WE ARE BACK!

4-0 Aberdeen? Please tell me I'm not dreaming.

A priceless victory for Kilmarnock still keeps them bottom after Aberdeen also win.
The Dons have jumped up to eighth in a congested table, with Hibs down to ninth.
Hearts stay third and Motherwell remain fifth.
FT: Motherwell 0-4 Aberdeen
As well as scoring four goals with just 31% possession, Aberdeen netted those goals with their only four shots on target.
The Dons' finishing was deadly when they found the target. Now can they build on this statement win?
FT: Falkirk 2-1 Hearts
Allan Preston
Former Hearts defender on BBC Sportsound
The back four with three lefties was unbalanced. I felt sorry for Jamie McCart playing on the right. They were an absolute, utter shambles.
Take nothing away from Falkirk, they deserved to win hands down.
A real bad day at the office for Hearts and it was unacceptable.
Yan Dhanda was the only one with pass marks, Claudio Braga was terrible and Harry Milne had his worst day as a Hearts player.
Stephen Robinson celebrates his Aberdeen side winning at his former club
At a glance
Molloy, Ronan & Mouloua score first goals for Aberdeen
Nisbet adds late fourth
Robinson's side largely untroubled as they move up to eighth
Aberdeen secured their second Scottish Premiership win of the season - and their first at Motherwell since March 2024 - with a terrific four-goal victory at Fir Park.
Defender Gavin Molloy, midfielder Connor Ronan and new Moroccan signing Ayoub Mouloua all claimed their first goals for Aberdeen with top-quality strikes in a game in which Motherwell dominated the ball but couldn't find a finish.
Molloy's effort brought the match to life before half-time, with the Irishman cracking in a superb long-range effort after efforts by Afeez Aremu and Kevin Nisbet whistled wide.
Seconds into the second half, Ronan doubled the lead with a powerfully struck shot from just inside the area which took a deflection past Alex Paulsen.
That goal seemed to deflate Motherwell, who went to their bench to try to find inspiration, but none of their four substitutes could make the impact they wanted, with Seb Palmer-Houlden guilty of heading a glorious chance over the bar.
A Toyosi Olusanya header from a free-kick almost gave Aberdeen a three-goal cushion but substitute Mouloua would not be denied, thundering into the top right-hand corner. And Nisbet jabbed in a late fourth off a post.
Aberdeen weren't overly troubled defensively as they picked up a precious and deserved victory in North Lanarkshire with their biggest league win since January's thumping of Livingston.
Motherwell will feel a fair bit of frustration about this one. They had a lot of the ball, weaved some really pretty patterns at times, but lacked the end product to reward some of their play.
Emmanuel Longelo provided much of the threat down their left-hand side. But the goals and assists that came last season for top-scorer Tawanda Maswanhise aren't there yet under Alfred Johanssen, who's still looking to find the kind of formula that worked so well for his predecessor, Jens Berthel Askou.
The defensive solidity that was such a hallmark of last season - and indeed the first couple of Premiership home matches this term - isn't quite there.
But it's early days under the Swede and it looks like there will be plenty of entertainment yet again for the Fir Park faithful in the coming months.
Aberdeen must have been instructed to shoot on sight by manager Stephen Robinson as they showed a real willingness to have a crack at goal every time they were remotely within range.
To add to their ruthless, clinical edge, they were organised at the other end when they had to deal with waves of Motherwell pressure and possession.
They were hoping that the League Cup quarter-final penalty shootout win over Kilmarnock on Saturday would kick-start their season and this win, at a ground where they don't have a good recent record, is a sign that things are definitely starting to move in the right direction for Robinson.
Aberdeen 'growing in confidence' - Robinson
Motherwell boss Alfred Johansson: "It's a mixture of getting punished hard from our opponents, together with the fact we had a lot of good scenarios that we like very much [but didn't make the most of].
"We found our 10s and wingers in behind, but we didn't manage to use those spaces enough. That led to unnecessary ball losses.

Motherwell have won each of their last three home league games against Aberdeen, as many as across their previous 16 beforehand (W3 D3 L10).
Aberdeen have lost three of their last five Scottish Premiership games against Motherwell (W1 D1), and could lose successive league meetings with the Steelmen for the first time since November 2021.
Motherwell, who are yet to concede at home in the Scottish Premiership this season, have kept 14 clean sheets at Fir Park since the start of last season in the competition – the most at home of any side.
Aberdeen have failed to score in each of their last four league games. Indeed, since the start of 2025-26, the Dons have drawn a blank in a Scottish Premiership-high 20 matches.
Only Benjamin Nygren (21) and Djeidi Gassama (13) have created more chances in the Scottish Premiership this season than Motherwell’s Emmanuel Longelo (11), who also ranks joint-third for big chances created (4) and third for expected assists (1.5).
