Hamilton: Cathro win was coming
HEARTS goalkeeper Jack Hamilton claims Ian Cathro’s first win as head coach was only a matter of time after feeling they were on the right course throughout.
And Hamilton was more concerned with staying in touch with Aberdeen and Rangers than easing any pressure surrounding the appointment of the 30-year-old.
Hearts delivered an emphatic first three points for Cathro at the fourth time of asking on Tuesday when they beat Kilmarnock 4-0 to set up the chance to jump above third-placed Aberdeen at Tynecastle tonight.
Hamilton said: “It was a big win but it didn’t faze him.
“We had been playing well, there were loads of positives and that result was going to come.
“It was just a matter of time.
“A few bad results went against us, it was more about getting back on a winning run to get closer to Aberdeen and Rangers.That was the reason it was a much-needed win for us.”
Cathro’s main change has been to introduce Krystian Nowak as a holding midfielder but otherwise the team is lining up in similar fashion to Robbie Neilson’s.
Hamilton said: “There have been wee tweaks and in certain aspects that’s helping. It certainly worked on Tuesday night and at Dundee as well, the first 60 minutes we were excellent.
“We are getting better every training session. We are taking it a game at a time, a training session at a time, and everyone is improving.”
