most decorated starting 11

[Masonic]

anyone ever went into the bother of researching this if so could u please post it? its something i seen done with the man utd team and thought it would be interesting to see what the hearts version looks like based on just trophies won at hearts and total trophies as well for the whole career?

 

 

[Rudolf]

Johnny Cummings 7 for a start. 
 

Thats not far short of Hibs total bearing in mind they’ve only won the Scottish Cup twice and not thrice as they claim. 

[John Findlay]

John cumming 2 x League titles.

1 x Scottish Cup

4 x league cups.

Barely gets a mention when talking about great Scottish players by the West coast media. Yet the man came from Carluke.

But was he a prodie? That sells papers over on the dates idea better than facts.

Lucky, lucky you.  Are you aware of the thunderbolt he scored at ER in a 4-0 win?  Before McGowan struck it was my favourite Hearts goal.

[iantjambo]

Would Mr Skacel make the team with his two Scottish cups?

he played before my time Doug but i am aware of his career. I was 15 when i first met the great man in 1985. His grandchildren are still very good friends to this day 

[BigAlim]

Was there not a player who won 3 Scottish cups over 1891,1896 and 1906?

[The Gorgie]

Would pretty much just be the team from the 50s/60s wouldn't it?

[The Gorgie]

For whole career Craig Gordon probably tops the list.

Craig Wighton has two runners up medals and it infuriates me.

Stating the obvious ? but it’s two categories right :

 

Guys with trophies just won while at Hearts would be mostly the 50s / 60s guys like Cumming & Mackay I,d have thought. ( without researching 🙂)

While the Hearts players who won stuff including outwith Hearts : Sandy Jardine, Alex MacDonald seem to spring to the top of the list.

[EIEIO]

Pre WW2 players are disadvantaged as there was no League Cup in their time. Need a table excluding League Cup in my view.

Delighted to see Isaac Begbie so far up the list though.

[3fingersreid]

There’s always a shout for a statue for Dave Mackay -and rightly so.

However John Cumming must also be worthy of a shout too? 
I didn’t get to see either but with all the stories I’ve heard from family and friends I bloody wish I had , imagining it can only get me so far . 

[been here before]

Won a few things...

Didn't Andy Webster get a medal in 2006 although he didn't play in the final?

By my reckoning Jankuaskas also has 12 major trophies (not counting super cups, second tier trophies, etc).  Won across 4 countries plus European.

13 going by wikipedia. I haven't counted the Scottish Championship. Some of his cup wins listed with Celtic may have been as an unused sub, which I guess count but feel soft.

Cheers. That would give him three overall.

The watney cup!  Half man half biscuit have a song with that in it and didn't know what it was.  I thought it was rugby league.
