'Comments From Alex and Sandy': European chances appear to have been blown by the previous Saturday's defeat at Ibrox, although a UEFA place is mathematically still possible; the lads played well against Rangers and put a lot into the game for no reward, and a 3-1 scoreline was not a true reflection of the play. A few of the younger players were given a run against the German side Eintracht Frankfurt at Tynecastle ten days earlier - a useful work-out and a chance to study continental tactics completely different from the hurly-burly of Premier League football. 'Today we welcome League Champions Aberdeen to Tynecastle and congratulate them on winning the flag last week.' As the last home league match of the season, the column closes with thanks for the support throughout the year. Published by Heart of Midlothian Football Club.
