According to his assistant Donald Park, Mixu Paatelainen was disappointed not to have his four-match touchline ban overturned. Park believes the Hibs boss will nevertheless be able to get his point across to his side on the pitch.

He said: "Mixu's obviously very disappointed but he'll take it on the chin and get on with it.

"It's not about me taking command in the dugout - the players take command on the park.

"Mixu will still be in command, although the mobile phone might be red hot, right enough."
