This was a performance as poor as Tynecastle has seen from a Hearts team. Ever. Rangers played well enough to win but, in truth, they could have put their under 19s on and probably have still beaten this Hearts side.
The only explanation for the whole side playing so poorly simultaneously was that they had hatched [...]

Hearts now relying on wind power
By: Graham | No Comments
Stephen Frail is reported today suggesting that games should be called off when it’s too windy. The temptation to link such a remark to the normal status of commentary emanating from Tynecastle is severe but I shall pass.
And it was passing that gave Hearts victory against Motherwell on Saturday. Both teams struggled with the conditions [...]

The BBC is reporting that Hearts have accepted £1m for Velicka from Norway’s Viking Stavanger. Oh, well.

Andrew Driver fluffed a couple of clear chances and [...]

A third victory in a row for Hearts came at the end of a week of rumours about the team being up for sale and, believe it or not, suggestions that Vladimir Romanov interfered in team selection. Beating Gretna at all is a rarity for Hearts and scoring two goals against them rarer still. However, [...]

By doing little more than turning up at Fir Park for the Cup replay with Motherwell, Hearts have cunningly ensured themselves a rest during a period of awful weather. You’ve got to hand it to Stevie Frail for thinking outside the box.
It also gives Frail the chance to take a leisurely look at his new [...]
