if Scotland win, Mondays will be removed from the calendar. The Wallace Monument will crack open to reveal the man himself sleeping inside. Midges will vanish. Ben Nevis will grow taller and - awoken by the shaking earth - Nessie will surface and walk to Johnny Foxes in Inverness

Why did @theSNP Govt agree to Bank Holiday today in Scotland for qualifying for World Cup. What happens if they win? A week off work?

ignoring referees and pitch-side monitors, i just got to watch an entire season of league football at Tynecastle Park with my Dad, where Heart of Midlothian didn't lose a single game. Who knows if that'll happen again. What a season, what a team - and what a football club 🇱🇻

Win tonight and it's an undefeated league season at home for Heart of Midlothian. What happens elsewhere is down to fate! 🇱🇻

"they have a lot to gain..."
*swivels round in leather chair, strokes fluffy white cat, takes puff of cigar*
"...and a lot to lose"

🔊 LISTEN: “They have all the momentum they could’ve hoped for… but also a team that suddenly has a lot to lose”.
🔸 Motherwell boss Jens Berthel Askou says having a title on the line may not necessarily work in Celtic’s favour at Fir Park on Wednesday night ⬇️

the fairytale story of the team who have won 13 out of the last 14 titles trying to win another title (despite having a bad manager for 30 days)
Celtic eye own fairytale as Hearts' story continues to captivate

Hearts denied a stonewall pen - but 10pts from Motherwell, Easter Road, Rangers, and Fir Park tonight is excellent. Top of the table with two games to go. Believe! 🇱🇻

noticed a new lick of paint for the Hearts museum this morning. Wonder if they're preparing for a new exhibit...

History in the making? The connection between Heart of Midlothian head coach Derek McInnes and his captain and centre-forward Lawrence Shankland has been one of the most important stories of the Scottish season. McInnes knew Shankland from Aberdeen days. He brought him in from Queen’s Park in 2013, telling RedTV he had “monitored” the teenaged Shankland for a while. Shankland said the moment he spoke to McInnes he wanted to go to Aberdeen. McInnes gave Shankland his debut against Inverness Caledonian Thistle in 2014. A bond was forged.
When McInnes became Hearts head coach last summer, he spoke to Shankland who was considering his options as a free agent. Shankland’s four-year-old daughter Eva famously wanted her dad to stay at Tynecastle because of her love for club mascot Jock the Jambo. McInnes knew how important family was to Shankland, and spoke to the striker about the value of being settled, and also being “ingrained” in the club as he told Hearts TV.
Shankland signed a new deal, and the rest is history. A lot of history. It has been 66 years since Hearts last won the Scottish title, 41 years since a team other than Celtic or Rangers won the Scottish title. Shankland has so far scored 14 times in the race for the title. The latest was last night’s winner against Rangers at a bouncing Tynecastle. “THE SKIPPER DOES IT AGAIN” Hearts admin posted @JamTarts. “LAWRENCE SHANKLAND YOU BEAUTYYYYYYYY”.
If Hearts get over the line (they lead Celtic by 3 points and 5 superior GD with 3 games left), what McInnes and his players will have done will be truly historic. And that connection between McInnes and Shankland will be season-defining - arguably career-defining. Historic, epic. #Hearts

if Hearts *did* win the title, this would surely make him the only player ever to have won the Scottish Championship and Premiership in the same year?

Adam Forrester has been recalled by Hearts, St Johnstone boss Simo Valakari has confirmed.
The full-back helped the Saints win the Scottish Championship.
