We are the Hearts Blog

Well quite a bit has happened since I’ve been away. Two wins in the league and a penalty defeat to our serial bogey team Airdrie in the League Cup. You have to go back to 1992 to find the last time we defeated the North Lanarkshire club and even though they have been [...]

I was one who wasn’t going to believe that David Obua would be granted a work permit until I seen it. We have had players knocked back in the past, most recently when Belarusian midfielder Gogita Gogua “ voted best newcomer in the Russian Premier League when playing for Spartak Nalchik.
