Trialist defender Joe Wright was on target for Hearts as they defeated East Fife 7-0 in a friendly at Bayview. The former Doncaster Rovers defender, who has been training with the Jambos and was close to a move to Hearts a year ago before a serious knee injury sidelined him, scored a diving header in a comprehensive victory over the Methil outfit.
Stephen Kingsley bagged a hat-trick – one from the penalty spot – while Alex Cochrane, Finlay Pollock and Alan Forrest also got in on the act in Kevin Smith’s testimonial.
Livingston also clocked up an landslide friendly result, running out 6-0 winners over Linlithgow Rose at the Tony Macaroni Arena.
Josh Mullin scored three times, Christian Montano helped himself to a brace, while new signing Esmael Goncalves was also on target.
