Hearts fans recall old scars as they brace for Celtic showdown Alan Searl, 73, was in stands for final-day title heartbreaks in 1965 and 1986. This time he will be watching in a pub in Edinburgh and hoping for a different ending By @MGrantScotland ⬇️ #Echobox=1778866807" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">thetimes.com/sport/football…

Who's that guy on the pitch? This is the story of a normal Hearts fan propelled to 'choir leader', the voice notes from the gaffer and the secret motivation in his top pocket that inspires him every time he points to the sky.

@AbzPodcast This 👆

Credit where it is due to the manager - after the defeat at the SMISA we looked utterly doomed. The idea that we'd be absolutely 100% safe with 2 games to go seemed like an impossibility. To pick up 10 points from 12 since is a huge. Onwards.

@KennyMacDonald1 I was unmoved.

Can confirm that he leaned across and told me this in injury time. Had to shoo him away.

@iain_mac Another flukey win Iain, I doubt you could enjoy it. 😉

@MGrantScotland We'll let them have their "Stone Roses inspired stickers" Michael. Meanwhile, we'll take the 3 points & move on. 😜

The nightmare question Hibs fans are asking: what if Hearts really do it? thetimes.com/article/ece5c6…

@ETimsNet They do seem to be quite keen on that idea.

@MGrantScotland Any Hibs fans been asked “How great would it be to derail Hearts?” For balance?

Had a walk around Leith to take the mood of the Hibees. A wee bit anxious, it’s fair to say.
