Stewart red shocks Jambos

Hearts are set to appeal against Michael Stewart's red card in Sunday's 1-1 draw with Gretna.
Stewart was dismissed by referee Mike Tumilty for violent conduct after a first-half clash with the Black and Whites' Danny Grainger.
However, Stewart could be in even more trouble after allegedly booting a ball down the tunnel in disgust and then causing damage by making a hole in a plasterboard wall.
Jambos coach Stevie Frail said: "The referee knows why he made the decision and it would be foolish to slaughter him.
"I can't comment until I see the footage. If it's against Michael we'll lodge an appeal if we think there are grounds.
"He didn't think there was a lot in it. He connected with the lad around the stomach, chest area."
