THE AHEAD BOY

Derby hero Jamés avoids the naughty corner as he's first at training on return from school.

- FRASER WILSON

JAMES WILSON returned to the Hearts training ground yesterday morning having spent the day after his Edinburgh derby heroics with his head stuck in his books back at school.

The Hearts hitkid was first on the grass at the Oriam according to Neil Critchley.

Had he not been then the manager reckons he'd have been given a flea in the ear by his elders in the Jambos dressing room.

But Critchley insists there's no danger of the 17-year-old getting too big for his boots even after grabbing the headlines with his late leveller in Sunday's 1-1 draw at Easter Road.

Not when he's a perfect student of the game whose playground is in the opposition's 18-yard box.

Wilson is now on two goals from two sub appearances in the last week - and Critchley says he comes into contention for a start for tonight's visit of Kilmarnock.
