Scott Wilson's first goal since 20th December 2005 sent his club through into the last eight of this season's Tennent's Scottish Cup:-

"The last time I scored was against Dundee United last season away when we lost  2-1. One a season, but I've still got time to double that. I couldn't believe it went in.

"To be honest I didn't think it was a foul on Hammy. But I thought I may as well go up and try it.  A few balls had gone to the back stick and nobody had taken them so I looped  my run.  There were four or five of us in there but lucky enough I stuck my big neck  out and got there.

"When I first went up I said, 'Come on, please, be the one, be the one' but  you say that a hundred times a season and it never happens. It was a massive relief, especially to score there because it kills them and  they've no time for another attack.

"You're thinking about the replay, about how difficult it's going to be. Hearts didn't play the big guns up front today but at Tynecastle they'd  probably field their strongest squad to make sure they go through, so it's  maybe a bit slack on their part. Dorus kept us in it to be honest with a couple of great saves, but I think  we deserved it anyway second half.

"First half we were a bit iffy. I spoke to a Hearts fan there and he said he  was disappointed in the way his team are playing.
He said we deserved it and you don't often hear that from Hearts fans, they usually back their team to the hilt."
