Stuart Taylor

“We are looking forward to it. Fantastic stadium to go to, a good atmosphere and good crowd there. Hearts are a very good and very experienced side. They have a huge depth to their squad with a lot of good players. It will be a good challenge for our players to go there and get back into the league campaign.”

Ryan Astley

“We want to go there to get three points, nothing else. The lads have prepared well and we are looking forward to it. It will be a tough game. They are a good team who are quick on the ball, but we know their weaknesses. Hopefully tomorrow night we can exploit that and get the three points.”
