A win at the home of the league leaders was always going to be a tall order, however a respectable performance was essential after the drab display against Dundee United.
While we didn't get any points from Tynecastle, we left with our heads held high and dare I say the manager may have got a few Livi fans back onside too.

Debutant Brooklyn Kabongolo was a stand-out. The big centre-half was assured on the ball and aggressive winning it back.
To be honest he was completely off my radar on loan at Arbroath. I'm glad the manager remembered him as the spell away to get some game-time has really helped the lad.
Our two new signings - Emmanuel Danso and Joshua Zimmerman - got on the pitch but other than clattering a Hearts player they didn't do too much. I've seen enough effort to be hopeful both will slot in and give a freshness to the squad.
The second-half showing was one of the best we've put in for a while. With better finishing we could have walked away with at least a point.

Big Tete Yengi had a decent game and his efforts up top were commendable. However, his goal return - two in 20 games - is a lot lower than everyone would like. Perhaps it's time for Robbie Muirhead to get a run at being the attack focal point as he was so effective doing it last season.
With the game against St Mirren postponed, it is now all eyes on a massive match against Kilmarnock, who will have Neil McCann in charge for the first time.
We've had our wake-up call, things weren't good enough recently and it's time to start delivering before it's too late.
