    Hearts head coach Robbie Neilson

    "We know what we are going to do. After today's game there are still 15 games to go - that's 45 points. Our main aim is to win the league and we haven't won it yet. We need to focus game to game. It's part of football, you can't look too far ahead. We'll try to play our passing game but if the conditions get any worse we'll need to be more direct. We can go for the win because of the (13-point) cushion that we have."

    "There are 400-500 fans outside Ibrox protesting. The fans I spoke to say they are happy about the meeting called by Dave King. They are very unhappy about the (possibility of) £10m loan from Mike Ashley. There are very unsavoury scenes here. They are shouting that they want Ashley out and the board out. The crowd is growing. There are maybe 600 here now. Many will, though, be going inside to watch the game."
