Hearts star David Templeton has been named the Clydesdale Bank Premier League Young Player of the Month for December - his second such award in a row.

Temps was in outstanding form over the month, scoring the Jambos' openers in both the 5-0 win over Aberdeen and the 2-0 victory at St Mirren.

A panel of Scottish football experts chose the Gorgie favourite from a shortlist which included the top three fans' nominations from Clydesdale Bank's football website, www.cbfootball.co.uk.

Fans can vote for their manager, player and young player of the month during the last week of each month, and one fan who correctly votes for the three winners will be selected to win a prize.
