Hearts Win First Match Under Coach Critchley

Hearts secured their first Scottish Premiership win under new head coach Neil Critchley with a victory over St Mirren, highlighted by goals from Kenneth Vargas and Daniel Oyegoke. Critchley was appointed following a strategic search that utilized an analytics-driven approach involving Brighton owner Tony Bloom's recruitment system. Despite initial skepticism about Critchley's previous managerial challenges, Hearts CEO Andrew McKinlay expressed confidence in his ability to enhance player performance. Meanwhile, Motherwell continues their strong league form, and Dundee struggles with a winless streak since August. Various Scottish clubs are facing player and managerial changes, including potential moves in the Premier League.
