Ross Stewart says he's ready to answer Robbie Neilson's SOS this weekend if Zander Clark joins Craig Gordon in the treatment room.
Clark was forced off early in Hearts' defeat to Kilmarnock at the weekend and with skipper and undisputed No.1 Gordon also on the sidelines until at least the end of the season, it fell to Stewart to step in. The 27-year-old had only made one competitive appearance this season with Clark's arrival on a free transfer relegating him to third-choice keeper at Tynecastle.
With two keepers involved in the Scotland setup ahead of him in the pecking order, the former Livingston keeper wasn't expecting much of a look-in this season. But as Neilson anxiously awaits news over Clark's hamstring problem, Stewart could asked to be step in against St Mirren this weekend and potentially Hibs the week after if it proves to be a longer-term issue.
