Ten reasons why Heart of Midlothian have already changed Scottish football for the better, whatever happens at Celtic Park today...
1) Interest levels risen at home and abroad.
2) Better competition.
3) Possible improvement in co-efficients with a strong Hearts heading into Europe.
4) Reminder of what can be done with shrewd recruitment (ยฃ300k net spend in summer window taking into account Penrice sale). Blend of data from the gem-finding geniuses of Jamestown Analytics and a good judge of players and inspiring man-manager in Derek McInnes.
5) Reminder of what can be done by fans โ Foundation of Hearts (โBe Part Of The Disruptionโ) have 8,000 members/owners and have raised ยฃ20m for the club.
6) Big-hearted benefactors like James Anderson and Ann Budge, caring for their community.
7) Big-hearted initiatives like Hearts fans buying additional season tickets and donating them to kids at Dalry Primary School, Edinburgh Childrenโs Hospital charity and elsewhere.
8) Reminder of what can be achieved through togetherness within a club, within a squad and within a fanbase.
9) Reminder to others that the great Old Firm duopoly can be challenged. Believe.
10) Finally, what a song and Colin Chisholmโs stirring pre-match rendition. The talk of the toon are the boys in maroon. #Hearts
Scottish footballโs top flight has been a bit predictable: only Celtic & Rangers have won it for over 40 years.
But this year Hearts are top of the table, with just 4 games left. So @itvnews took a trip down Gorgie Road to see what it all means to the @JamTarts fans.
Many kind thanks to Margot Weale for kindly sending a proof of From The Shadows by G R Halliday published in July, love the sound of this, soon to be a major tv series @gr_halliday@margotbookpr@PointBlankCrime#FromTheShadows
