Trivia

  • McPhail was out injured nursing the cut he picked up in the previous game against Rangers; Walsh moved to centre forward and Donald Weir came in as inside forward. Bonnar was again fit.

Review

Taken apart by the Terrible Trio who scored the goals but more so from the two new Hearts players, Milne and Durkin.Walsh had a poor game and only Boden, Collins and Peacock came out with any credit. The squad looked thin.
