Kingston faces selection fight

Hearts goalkeeper Steven Banks claims Laryea Kingston will struggle to regain his place following the 1-1 draw with Aberdeen.

The Ghana midfielder is eligible for Saturday's visit of Gretna after completing a two-match suspension. But a new-look Hearts midfield controlled possession for long spells as they secured their first Clydesdale Bank Premier League point of the season at Pittodrie.


"I think Laryea will probably find it very hard to get back in the team after that performance," Banks said.

"It will be good once Laryea is available because he is obviously a good player. But I thought the lads who performed are worthy of being in the team for next week."
