Steven Naismith can hush Hearts dissenters if he can answer the biggest question but banners not helping - Ryan Stevenson

"Remember where we are, how far we've come and where we've come from." That's my response to the banner Hearts fans unfurled in Ayrshire on Tuesday.

"Funded by fans, run by clowns, we deserve better." Their frustrations are understandable but as a club we are miles and miles away from where we were. The passion and all of the rest of it that supporters have for the team can reach the stage that they want to turn their wrath on the board, coaching staff and management but while there have been mistakes made - we all make them.

I just don't think these types of banners are the right way to go about things or the right way to be. Calling for boards and managers to be sacked and calling people clowns isn't for me. Let's focus on a win over Kilmarnock. Getting through any cup tie has been the same thing since day dot. It's about winning the game and as they saying in golf goes - there's no pictures on your scorecard.

Steven Naismith said he was more pleased by the performance than the result but I'm doubtful that's really true. All that mattered on Tuesday night was the result, it was all about getting to a semi-final at Hampden and now they have a semi-final against Rangers to look forward to. Nobody will remember the details of beating Kilmarnock at Rugby Park in the pissing rain, it was always about getting a win. That said, there's nothing better than a 90th minute winner and I was delighted for young Alex Lowry who scored it.

I was at the Aberdeen game which Hearts won recently, the Dons are a decent side but the Jambos were worthy winners and then they went to St Mirren and it was the same old, same old where they never turned up. It's now about backing up the Killie result, it can't be win one, lose one, draw one and
