eusabio Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 In season 1946-47, hearts striker at the time, Archie Kelly in a match against Kilmarnock, dived for a cross ball and hit a post at the school end with such force that he not only shattered his collar bone, but cracked the post as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Three things that the football world should be aware off, but many are not. And yet we STILL have Hearts fans who throw that lot an olive branch.

After a game the jerseys were put in the wash and came out maroon. And so the legend began... The very first Heart of Midlothian kit, all white with a deep red heart on the breast and a team line down the pants. 2nd image of the red white and blue kit with the initials MFBC emblazoned across the chest, Mid-Lothian Foot Ball Club.

SectionDJambo Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 I might be wrong, but I'm thinking that we also could have won the league, another time, in the 1950s, on the last day of the season, but lost at Parkhead. The team who started the day above us also lost, giving us the chance. So that would be 3 times, in my lifetime, that we have failed to win the league on the last day, when a win, or draw the last 2 times, would have done it.

Joint top in 1957 with three games left, the first of which was effectively a winner take all, title decider v. Rangers at Tynecastle. We murdered them, apparently, but lost 0-1. We both, as expected, won our last two games and had to settle for 2nd. 1959 we were 2 points behind Rangers on the last day. We had to win at Parkhead, not a daunting prospect at that time, and hope Aberdeen won at Ibrox. They did, 1-2. We actually took the lead v. Celtic but lost 2-1 and, again, had to settle for 2nd.

vasco Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 Anyway, enough of this interesting nonsense, but I am just about to finish my beer and head to the metro for the Argentina v Venezuela match in the Maracaná. This will be my fourth match in this stadium without seeing Brazil. I've got tickets for the semi in Belo on Tuesday (potentially Brazil v Argentina) and for the final a week on Sunday. If Argentina or Venezuela were to win the semi, it would mean that my trip to the Copa America saw me visit the Maracaná FIVE times without seeing the hosts. On the other hand, if they win the semi, my only time seeing them this trip would be in their own stadium in the final of the Copa America. I still think the winner will come from the other semi-final. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WorldChampions1902 Posted June 30, 2019 Share Posted June 30, 2019 Great thread! Two Hearts players loaned 11 of their Scotland shirts to two teams for a match. Bobby Walker for a benefit game and Tommy Walker to Scotland during WW2 because the SFA were unable to kit out our players due to rationing. Hearts were the only team to defeat Man City 6-5 in a Cup Final (Empire State Cup). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Undone by a 2-4 defeat by Celtic in a head to head encounter. Again, I know we were runners up but unsure how close we actually were.

Hibs wouldn't have clinched it by winning at Tynecastle but our chances would have been all but ended and Celtic would have had a lot to do to stop them. How ironic that St. Mirren and Dundee played such a big part in our title win. Great stuff again, bud. Hopefully, one day, we'll be involved again in the race for the title and emerge as Champions. I'll never stop believing. Edit: I did the arithmetic, btw. Edited July 2, 2019 by martoon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
