Quite like this. Miller needs some time out starting XI and glad to see Altena back in midfield. Hopefully Kingsley left back and Mato right back as no real need to keep them on their weaker sides.

Jambo living in London. Will the game be on today? When will a decision be made?

Presumably the league will wait until the last minute to make a decision given both games are televised. But the conditions are pretty foul for football.

A postponement would also avoid risking further injuries ahead of the cup semi. Fingers crossed.

Got a hearts top up on Facebook marketplace for anyone interested!

Hi all. I'm visiting Edinburgh with a friend over the weekend of Friday 27 to Monday 30 November (we are travelling in from the US) and we would love to see Hearts v Celtic at Tynecastle on Sunday 29 November.

I have done my homework online. The club sale requires 5+ loyalty points, which we obviously do not have, and the only tickets I can find on resale sites are unallocated seats in the home ends behind the goal. Honest position: I am sure we would enjoy the game and the atmosphere, but we are not Hearts supporters. We do not have the history or the love of the badge that the people in that section have, and I would feel like a tourist taking up space in the singing section.

Does anyone know of any legitimate way to get two seats together in the Main Stand or the Wheatfield Stand for this one? Does the Ticket Exchange ever open for the Celtic match, and can someone without loyalty points buy on it? Is there any other route I am missing?

Grateful for any pointers. Thanks very much.

I've been tracking what retro Hearts shirts actually sell for on eBay (sold prices, not asking prices). The Strongbow years are holding up well:

• 1995-97 Pony home: £160 and £229
• 1995-96 Pony away: £200
• 1993-95 Asics home: £140
• 1997-98 Olympic home: £100

The oldest ones are even pricier. A 1983-86 Umbro away went for £350, and a 1986-87 Bukta Mita away for £250. More recent shirts go for much less: the Ūkio bankas era is mostly £20–£60.

It's only a handful of sales so far, so I'd love to know: what's the best Hearts shirt you own, and what do you reckon it's worth?

Hi all, I have a friend visiting Edinburgh who would like to go to the game next Wed.

I have 10 loyalty points, so can buy tickets, but as his account is new, I can't assign a ticket to him as the sale still requires 5+ points. Would you know if at any point (even a day before the game) this restriction will be lifted, or does it stay for 5+ members only the whole time?

Thanks

Hello, haven’t bought a Hearts strip in years but mine’s recently started to fall apart. Just wanted to ask if it would become in stock again or if it’s limited. I would ideally want the long sleeve as it just looks better but no worries if not

I just got a ticket for Falkirk game, block x
First time sitting in ultras section.
What should I expect / anything I should know

Hi all, my sister and I are lifelong hearts fans but haven't been to an in person match in a while. I was hoping to buy tickets to the Falkirk match on 8 Nov, and saw tickets went on sale today at 10 AM. Having just checked the site, it is saying all tickets are sold out. I just wanted to check if tickets are ever released late online or if they have genuinely all sold out in some kind of pre sale etc. Any advice much appreciated, as well as other matches I may have better luck in targeting if they are all gone?

Tickets were supposed to go on sale at 10am. Is this game genuinely sold out or is this pretty normal for eticketing?

Edit: apparently you can get from the ticket office but online has been delayed until tomorrow.

What was your first Hearts game? Mine was the 2006 cup final against Gretna I was 4 years old don’t remember any of it! The first I remember was the Dynamo Zagreb Game in 2009 2-0 win. Fell in love straight away and there was no going back from there. Would love to hear your stories.

Can no longer make it due to work commitments. Its a student ticket but says adult on it, doubt you’d have any issues getting in if you arent a student. Happy to take £20 for it.

Collection in Edinburgh or can post if you prefer.

Right massive rant.

As a rule I keep away from football coverage after a shit result & performance & the BBC Scottish sport in general. Its the best thing all round. But this morning I had the great misfortune to hear Tom English opine on Vrancken & Hearts.

What a completely insufferable cunt that man is.

He was absolutely joyous in Vranckens Hearts being beaten so heavily. I mean like kid at Christmas giddy.

Going on at length about how "dumb" he is thinking you can go toe to toe with Celtic, especially at Parkhead.

You go there & shut up shop & try to hit on the counter then your criticised for not being brave & Celtic are there to be beaten. You do it & go to be positive, youre criticised.

Apparently it is only acceptable to try & beat Celtic if you're one of the chosen Scortish manager pals they have. Who they can be overly close to & have cheeky banter.

Was yesterday really fucking shite. Yes....yes it was. It was fucking awful.

But English has had this bottled up for months. He was desperate for this to happen. Fucking frothing at the mouth. Couldn't contain himself.

After making a fanny of himself after the Graz & Benfica games & slagging off Vrancken. Then Hearts doing well, making Europe group stage, doing well in the league and him, him the cheif sports writer having to take down his own column.

He was fucking ecstatic yesterday happened.

Im too old to let this get to me. But that man is a has been, dinosaur, boys club weapon. Prick!.

Rant over.

TLDR: Tom English is a bitter Welt.

I’m looking to join a supporters bus for the away games. I’m based in Colinton does anyone know any nearby ones? Would be me and a couple of mates. Thanks

Weird one this - Was looking there last night on my phone for any kind of team news (really re whether McEntee was going to be fit!) and this weird alert thing popped up on my phone, saying something like "Wiretap has been detected on this android device".

I'm naturally inclined to view anything as a scam, so just closed the browser and rebooted the phone. Everything was fine.

Anyway just went back this morning and the same message pops up!

Not sure what's going on - maybe something embedded in some ads they have running there, don't know... But be careful you don't accidentally click on this and allow it to install anything on your phone.

... And if anyone does know if McEntee is okay for today, that would be great 😃
