Robbie Neilson insists the latest Edinburgh derby triumph over Hibs will count for nothing if they don't do the double over Hibs later this month - as he blasted a missile that hit Zander Clark.
Lawrence Shankland double and a late Stephen Humphrys strike sent Hearts into the new year on a high and extended their unbeaten Edinburgh derby run to eight games. But with a Scottish Cup fourth round clash against their rivals looming on January 22nd, that derby is already the primary focus of his attention.
He said: “It’s just important to win the derby, whether it’s at Tynecastle, Easter Road or over there or at Hampden. You have to go and win it. Yes we’ve had a good record. But we go there in three or four weeks’ time knowing that, if we don’t win it, it’s the end of the world. That’s the derby.
