Steven Naismith hailed his rampant Bravehearts for going on the offensive to bring a six game losing streak to a halt with a first half battering of Ross County.
But the Hearts caretaker boss insists a result which jumped his team two points behind Aberdeen, who face Rangers at Pittodrie this afternoon, is only another small step in their bid for a third place finish. A Lawrence Shankland hat-trick, Josh Ginnelly's double and an Alex Cochrane strike buried the Staggies who were fortunate to survive a double-figure beating.
Naismith was delighted to get his win under his belt and admits it's only a starting point in trying to turn a corner after weeks of disappointments. He said: "The performance was brilliant from the whole team. It gets a win. I say it all along, if we win games we will be successful, it’s as simple as that. I am not going to sit here and say everything changes from last week because it doesn’t.
