To this day and as a Rangers supporter ive always thought of the bigger picture for the whole of Scottish football. I wish sides like Hearts, Hibs,Aberdeen and Dundee United were able to compete with the old firm in terms of spending power. Seeing a two horse race every season is why our league is a joke.
As Wallace Mercer said of that season: "Even for Hearts to have been in a position to win the league was a success in itself. I'm not celebrating defeat but you have to look at it this way - this was a club on the verge of bankruptcy five years beforehand and we had turned it around and showed that Hearts were back as an established force that could once again be respected."
Loved Henry Smith. I've scored 2 out of 5 pens against him at my school end term gala day. Also, Gary Mackay would always have time for us, even on his own doorstep. From an Edinburgh Jungle Jim.
I remember that day/year - I could not believe us losing to Dundee, and Celtic wining 4.0 in which I thought was a fix! I cried, as the team did not deserve in what had happened!
100 % Hearts deserved the title, JC was spot on unfortunately Hearts lost it as opposed to anyone winning it...St Mirren were a disgrace to football that day
Utter bollocks. Celtic won it fair and square. All hearts needed to do was draw their last game and they couldn’t even do that. Celtic won it. Probably Celtic’s greatest league triumph ever. They took it to the last game which is all you can do.
Utter tosh hearts bottled it ! Celtic were unbeaten from mid Feb and won their last 8 games while hearts bottle started to crack with dropped points and they made the crucial mistake of not having it sewn up before the last game meaning it could still be snatched on the last day which duly happened as hearts totally bottled it at dens Park!

‘Two horse race every season’ 😂😂😂😂😂😂 This is only accurate if one horse is called Celtic and the other horse is called Everyone Else.
A tragedy that FIFA did not inaugurate the Puskás Award until 2009, 23 years too late for Albert Kidd’s second goal to win fitting recognition.

the team that won f--k all thank you jam tarts made my year thank u
That was a wonderful season. To see them end up with nothing, was joyful. Watching us destroy them in the Cup Final was beautiful.

We won 5-0. 😅
Only needed a draw in the final match and bottled it with ten minutes to go.
Hearts blew it.
Face that fact.
It was all about your team , they bottled it big time , all they needed was a point , that’s it , plenty in common with the sevco …bottle merchants
And all the while celtic always had games in hand which meant hearts lead wasnt real !
Sit down you dribbling mess.
They heartsed it
they made the crucial mistake of printing tee shirts😂
