Veteran Hearts goalkeeper Steve Banks has revealed the club's players held crisis talks after slipping to tenth place in the SPL table.

The Edinburgh club lost their fourth straight league game with a 1-0 defeat at home to St Mirren on Boxing Day and afterwards the players held a meeting to discuss their recent troubles.

"I think a few of the senior players thought the players needed to have a meeting with no staff there," Banks told the club's official website.

"There were a few things said that have not been said before.

"The club deserves to be top of the league and winning cups every year as it is a great club with a lot of tradition, but it is not happening at the moment."
