I wonder what was going on that day of the photo shoot ? Ahh, 1982. It wasn't a good time for the club but I was 14 and loved being a Hearts fan. The hardest support in Scotland, feared no one and that East of Scotland Shield came via a brilliant 1-2 win at Hibs in October 1981. We beat Meadowbank 5-0 at Tynecastle on a cold night in the New Year of 82, iirc. I have fantastic memories of that time, even if results could sometimes be horrific. 😊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was at the East Fife match the day Jimmy died on his way home from it. Tragic for both of them and their families. Two Tynecastle icons, for sure. Great photo - do you know when this was and the score in this match, MS? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Dad was at the game (and the Final v Celtic) and used to wax lyrical about the performance. He also maintained Hearts didn’t concede a goal in that cup run as he felt Willie Duff was fouled by a Celtic player and that their “goal” shouldn’t have stood. I’ve watched it a few times now, and given the rules back then and despite the dodgy camerawork, I’m not convinced he was right! He remained adamant though!

Derby crowd in pic 9? Looking at that photo and also with being in b/w, I'm not sure it is a derby match (unless it's an EOSS match?). It might be against someone like Stirling Albion who wore that style of shirt but in red. Having said that I wouldn't put my house on it.

It can't have happened too often either that a team beat both Rangers and Celtic to win the Scottish cup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely. Yet another thing I recall my Dad speaking about! I remember reading Albert Mackie’s book, “The Hearts” where he describes the elation that followed when the team paraded the Cup. “How Edinburgh blew her dignified top…how her reserved citizens flipped their immaculate lids.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few thought it was Valley Parade (until they noticed the Castle). Thought I’d share it as it’s an unusual shot - not a picture of Tynecastle I’ve seen before.
