🗣️ If the game was at four in the morning, they’d still be there."
An interesting read on Hearts transfer values, Transfermarkt and what goes into calculating them.

Pace, aye. Stamina, nope. Spittal can run all day. But, aye, he isn't the quickest!

Blair Spittal, the under-appreciated Hearts star?
A look at his impact as a squad player, why Derek McInnes identified him early on as a "key guy" and an important quality he adds to the midfield.
Heart of Midlothian have had a number of key performers. But five stand out as POTY candidates.
@craigcairns.bsky.social presents the case for the quintet.
Marc Leonard was exactly what Hearts needed in January.
A look at his addition - including a glowing reference - his impact, what he has added to the Hearts midfield and why Derek McInnes has been delighted.
Boyd Fraser follows Robbie Flockhart and Keir McMeekin in making Hearts B debut days after turning 16.
Six 17-year-olds and five 16-year-olds started last night.
Hoff, a couple of weeks. Other than missing the bounce game with an illness, Borch has been training.
Lawrence Shankland is making good progress in his return from injury and is working towards what could be an earlier-than-expected return.
The current Hearts first-team squad is 30-strong and has 18 nationalities.
Speak to any player and they will say it is one of the best of their career.
Derek McInnes spoke on how it compares to ones he's managed, the unity and what he loves about it.
Hearts are guaranteed in the region of £400,000 in training compensation for Keir McMeekin's move to Manchester City.
A life-changing transfer for the 16-year-old could net Hearts as much as £2m.
Colin Chisholm's rendition of The Hearts Song on Saturday was memorable.
Had the pleasure of speaking to Colin and his son David about a special and poignant experience, the build-up and Marshall's, the Chunky Chicken Champions.
🗣️ "Oh, God, don't."
Yeah, think the club were waiting to get them in. 50 loyalty points still the cut off so you may have a decision to make...
Cammy Devlin thinks he has a chance to return for Hearts against Kilmarnock next weekend alongside Oisin McEntee.
The midfielder received an injection which has helped irritation.
🗣️ McInnes: "We're not going rule that out for him at the minute."
Hearts set for another sold-out away support at Rugby Park.
Initial allocation of 3,500 sold out but second batch of tickets will take it beyond 4,000.
Hearts can end a 26-year wait for Scottish Youth Cup success when they face Queen's Park in the final.
It came after defeating Kilmarnock, which ended with celebratory music blaring from the home dressing room.
Reflections on a successful night at the Oriam.
Heart of Midlothian's penultimate fixture before the split has been moved for TV.
A HUGE away following will be expected at Livingston next month.
Belated analysis from the 1-0 win over Aberdeen.
It was all about the first-half performance. Playing forward, playing with width, man for man.
It reflected the positivity and intensity of the support.
Claudio Braga is revelling in the increased responsibility in the Hearts attack.
He revealed the role Shankland had to play in his goal and his new goal target, plus what it felt like to score in front of his dad and the feeling at Hearts.
Heart of Midlothian finish the weekend:
- 6 points ahead of Rangers
- 8 ahead of Celtic (they play their game in hand at Aberdeen on Wednesday)
- 10 ahead of Motherwell (they play their game in hand v Dundee on Saturday)
A couple of weeks of chill then Killie and Dundee.
Banners, ladders, songs. Nerves, excitement and belief.
Inside a hugely enjoyable, successful and, at times, surreal day at Tynecastle Park as Heart of Midlothian defeat Aberdeen in front of a raucous home support.
Derek McInnes described the Hearts support as "brilliant".
They played their part in the 1-0 win over Aberdeen, as did Blair Spittal, a resolute defence and the desire to go with a front two.
McInnes explained the line-up decision and Ferguson.
Hearts will train in Edinburgh next week instead of going to Dubai.
Plus, updates on Oisin McEntee, Craig Gordon and Ageu's operation. As well as Derek McInnes and Dennis Geiger encounter.
Hearts are monitoring the situation in the Middle East regarding their Dubai training camp.
It is, as expected, very unlikely.
When Hearts went out to training yesterday morning, Derek McInnes had a full XI unavailable.
