BBC Sport - Hearts 0-2 St Mirren St Mirren claimed their first win of the season to ease the pressure on boss Danny Lennon and leave Hearts further isolated at the foot of the table. John McGinn headed home Conor Newton's cross to put the visitors ahead shortly before half-time. And a scrappy, close-range effort by Paul McGowan doubled the Paisley side's advantage in the second period. Hearts rallied but neither Jason Holt, Ryan Stevenson nor Jamie Walker could find the net. The hosts, who started the season with a 15-point penalty for entering administration, had gone into the match hoping to reduce the gap between the two sides to six points but St Mirren are now 12 clear of bottom spot and two above Kilmarnock, who drop to 11th.
