Everyone told me Hearts were a big football team but when I visited the stadium as a tourist the football from Hearts on offer was extremely poor. It was anything but entertaining. If you want to be entertained and have a right good sing song with very friendly people get along to Easter road for a far superior experience. Mind the gap too.

Thank you for being that friendly towards a foreign football fan and giving me the opportunity to visit your charming stadium. It was a pleasure even with the wrong result. Hearts of Midlothian is something I will never forget!

Hearts of Midlothian are the other major footballing team in Edinburgh. Based in Gorgie, Hearts over recent years have struggled to maintain its old dominance between the Edinburgh clubs. It has been sad to watch the whole Vladimir Romanov saga! When he took over the club he promised great things including a lot of investment. However, after winning the Scottish Cup in 2006, by beating Gretna one nil, the club has been on a decline. The club's top players left including Craig Gordon, Paul Hartley and former captain Steven Pressley. And instead of reinvesting the money, the money has instead
