Manager Scott Brown has lauded goalkeeper Harry Stone, who has been with Ayr United since the beginning of the season, while Ethan Drysdale has now joined Partick Thistle as part of the trade that brought Harry Milne to Tynecastle.

Another player on loan at Raith is Finlay Pollock, who was deemed superior to Wilson by previous sporting director Joe Savage.

Raith Rovers fans hail Hearts loanee Finlay Pollock

Despite his impressive start against Hamilton, Pollock has been in and out of the team owing to persistent ailments. Pollock scored on his debut.

As he gains experience in the first squad, he has four goals in 17 games.

However, a stellar performance and a double in a 3-0 victory against Partick Thistle have now arrived, marking his finest moment in FIFA.

The 20-year-old scored the first goal eight minutes after opposition midfielder Kyle Turner unintentionally put one on his plate, and he increased the lead with a close-range goal on minute 26.

Although Dylan Easton’s penalty in the second half completed the scoring, the Hearts young player was named man of the match.

One of Raith’s admirers exclaimed, “Well deserved MOM,” in celebration of him. Today is really wonderful.

“Well deserved – worked his socks off today,” someone else commented.

“A worthy man of the match today,” this fan commented. Well done, young man. He worked tirelessly for the club in both attack and defense and had two outstanding finishes.

Can Pollock make the grade at Hearts?

In the first few months of his loan, there would have been skepticism because Pollock wasn’t a consistent player in the Championship.

This came as his injury issues, which had already troubled him at Hearts, persisted.

Though Savage’s remarks demonstrate how well-liked he is, he is now playing a leading position under Barry Robson, and there are strong expectations that he can return to Gorgie and make a difference.
