We asked for your thoughts after Hearts extended their lead at the top of the Scottish Premiership with a nervy win over bottom side Livingston.
Here's a taste of what you had to say:
Gordon: Three points is the bottom line but the second-half performance was awful, we were stuck in this endless sideways passing movement from the back and the ball needs to be going forward much faster if we're to use the speed we have in the wide areas.

David: To bounce back after last week's derby defeat was a must. Some questions however - 17 shots and only three on target is a concern, as is allowing Livi back into the game in the second half. Also why take so long to freshen things up in attack? Why is Elton Kabangu so obviously out of favour? Expect a tough game at Dundee next week.
John: Great first half, should have been out of sight. Thought our new right-back Jordi Altena was very comfortable. Onwards and upwards.
Peter: Nerves shredded in the lead-up to the final whistle but a very welcome three points and a first half of slick play that should have brought more goals. We must learn to smother teams early in the second half when we know they will fight back. Keep possession and frustrate them while hitting on the counter attack for 15 minutes, or run at them and tear them apart, one or the other, but not anything in between. Livingston are strong and we did well. Altena looks very good and his crosses were superb. Craig Halkett will agree with that and his own header was sublime. Well done to all!
Frank: In the first half we were streets ahead but it was just one of those days when all the breaks went to the opposition. If we repeat the first-half performance over 90 minutes in the future someone is going to lose by a cricket score.
