History of Tynecastle

OVER THE COURSE OF THE 21/22 SEASON, CLUB HISTORIAN DAVID SPEED WILL COVER THE ILLUSTRIOUS HISTORY OF OUR HOME.

PART SEVEN: GROWING PAINS

Hearts’ first game of the new Century was played on 1 January 1900 against

Hibernian at Tynecastle in the short-lived, Inter-City League. An entertaining game finished in a 3-3 draw and the attendance was 6,500.

The most difficult issue facing the club was raising sufficient cash to maintain Hearts as one of Scotland’s leading teams, particularly as it was now essential to pay sign-on fees to attract and retain the best players. It was crucial that gate money was supplemented from such activities as concerts; bill posting and advertising; cycle and sports meetings; refreshment stalls; and fixture cards, etc.

The club had already identified cycling as a major source of income and in July 1900, Messrs. Topping of Wheatfield Road were paid £55 to expand the running track in order to meet SCU requirements and secure some of the sixteen race meetings in the city. A new fence was also required around the raceway at a cost of £20. The cycle track created large arcs behind each goal and for the first time, club records noted the appearance of goal-boys who were paid 10/- (50p) per season.

Unfortunately, after winning the League Championship in 189697, Hearts’ playing fortunes had faded and in 1900-1901, the club even suffered the ignominious fate of having to apply for re-election to the First Division. In addition, during the early months of 1901, debts were increasing at an alarming rate. Significant ground developments were out of the question, but one match resolved this situation: the Scottish Cup Semi-Final against Hibernian at Tynecastle on 9 March 1901.

The stadium’s expanded banking accommodated, with ease, the record attendance of 22,500 who also paid a record sum of nearly £481 at the gates with an additional £104 in the stands. As they assembled before the kickoff, the fans were entertained by the Gorgie Brass Band and the crowd subsequently raised a tumultuous roar to greet Mark Bell’s goal for Hearts. Although Hibs equalised in the second half, the maroons comfortably won the Replay at Easter Road and Hearts, of course, went on to defeat Celtic by 4-3 in the Final, securing the Scottish FA Cup for a third time.

It proved important to have money in the bank, because in May 1901, the uncovered North Stand was reported to be in a dangerous condition. It had to be immediately replaced and during the summer a modern and spacious covered structure with a standing enclosure in front was constructed. The new North Stand was erected by a local firm, owned by a Hearts member, William C.P. Brown, and together with a new entrance at the bottom of McLeod Street, the total cost was just over £647.

The City’s Dean of Guild insisted that the foundations were made of concrete, but the main structure was otherwise built of wood. It was separated from the bowling greens by the corrugated iron fence which was transferred from the northern boundary which was now formed by the distillery’s new bonded warehouse.

Half the cost of the new North Stand was raised through a subscription sale (a raffle) where participants could win a number of lucrative items, donated by both supporters and players. Prizes such as a marble clock, a canary cage, a briar pipe, a golf club and a quarter of mutton, proved attractive to the public. With an eye on business Mr. Murray of the Green Tree public house and Mr. Clark of the Midlothian Arms, both sent £10/10/- (£10.50) for the Stand Fund.

The subscription sale was organized by Peter Fairley, who had been appointed as the club’s first Manager-Secretary in April 1901. A month later, because Fairley worked from within the stadium, the rules were altered to the effect that the Committee Room was now regarded as the office of the football club.

On 30 August 1901 at the Quarterly Meeting at Marshall Street Halls, the Club President, James Irvine, indicated that the cost of the new stand and entrance had been slightly above budget at just over £647. Other improvements included seven turnstiles at Gorgie Road; and seven at the foot of McLeod Street which cost a further £250. However, the result was a much enhanced stadium and a growing membership (effectively season ticket

Although it had been in use for the initial games of the new season, Tynecastle’s North Stand was fully completed and formally opened on Monday, 16 September 1901, when Rangers beat Hearts by 2-0 in the League before 9,000 spectators. In October 1901, VicePresident, William Dow, was able to advise the members that all the associated bills had been paid, and that the club was now free of debt.

Hearts had one of the tidiest enclosures in the country and the feel-good factor was further enhanced on 2 January 1902, when the Scottish Cup holders enjoyed a prestigious 3-1 victory over the FA Cup winners, Tottenham Hotspur, at Tynecastle. The first-leg of this important cup-winners’ challenge had ended in a 0-0 draw at White Hart Lane in London.

The crowd at the Tottenham game was only 8,000 but both the stands were packed to capacity on 15 February 1902, when the record attendance was challenged against Celtic in the Third Round of the Scottish Cup. In total, some 21,500 fans filled the stadium and the match ended in a 1-1 draw. There were fewer spectators in the standing areas and knowledgeable observers were of the opinion that the attendance was slightly less than the previous season’s match against Hibs. Unfortunately, Hearts then lost possession of the Scottish Cup after a 2-1 defeat in the Replay at Celtic Park.

The growth of football crowds was temporarily interrupted following a dreadful incident at Ibrox Park on 5 April 1902 when part of the west terracing collapsed at the Scotland versus England match and 26 spectators lost their lives. All around the country, supporters rallied to help those affected and on 20 May 1902, a Tynecastle crowd of 6,000 saw Edinburgh defeat Glasgow by 1-0 for the benefit of the Ibrox Disaster Fund. The game raised £130 at the gate and a collection added an additional £44. Hearts’ hero, Bobby Walker, who had played for Scotland that terrible day, gave In the wake of this event, on 15 July 1902, the Burgh Engineer demanded radical strengthening of the now antiquated South Stand at Tynecastle Park. This was quickly attended to, and the old structure was certified as safe on 11 August 1902.

While this was happening , the club decided to make some additional improvements, and the main uprights in the North Stand were tarred, together with the standing area in front. In addition, the height of the banking was further increased and wooden beams were sunk into the ashes at the Gorgie Road entrance. This provided the first real terracing at Tynecastle, running from the turnstiles down to the playing pitch which had been totally dressed and, where necessary, re-turfed.

On 20 October 1902, Edinburgh Corporation formally extended the club’s lease of Tynecastle Park until 1910 and although this was highly satisfactory, within a month, Hearts had to deal with a rather unpleasant issue. After a run of poor results, the club was forced to appeal to the supporters to refrain from abusing the players, using what was described as “very crude language”. long association with Edinburgh football, paying Hearts the sum of £3/10/- (£3.50) to secure the right to sell chocolate on the ground, and to dispense its famous drink from a wooden hut. The players were even supplied with Bovril at half-time and this company was soon able to promote its product at the largest crowd to have attended a Scottish football match outside of Glasgow. was a golden era,

THE USHER HALL PART 2

Last time on our Heritage Trail journey, we left you at the Usher Hall with Sir George McCrae’s commitment to raise a

Battalion in 2 short weeks. Aware of the short timescale, Sir George set up a meeting at Tynecastle

Park on November 25th, 1914, to talk to players about his plan to have a company composed entirely of sportsmen within his battalion. He asked the Hearts players to join up in the hope that fans would follow their lead.

Thirteen hearts players agreed to join McCrae’s Battalion.

McCrae’s official recruitment event took place at the Usher Hall on 27

November 1914 in a bid to recruit 1,000 men to his newly formed battalion.

Hearts forward, Jimmy Speedie had signed up the week before and two players, Neil Moreland and George Sinclair, had already been called up as Army reservists at the outbreak of the War; both were already in the thick of the fighting on the continent. This would take Hearts contribution at the end of November 1914 to 16.

The fact that so many Hearts players had signed up, undoubtedly boosted McCrae’s recruitment drive. The Usher Hall was packed to its 4,000-capacity and a special cheer went up for Hearts players who took their place on the platform in recognition of the numbers who had already joined up. A Hearts’ minute book recorded that, ‘the lead established by these gallant youths reverberated through the length of the land’. Sir George received an ovation

before making the last patriotic speech. He announced the recruitment station was now open at the Palace Hotel in Castle Street (now demolished), declaring that he believed so passionately in voluntary service that he himself, was about to walk down to Castle Street to volunteer, asking ‘Who will join me?’ Huge numbers then left for the Palace Hotel to sign up. Supported by our neighbouring clubs –Raith Rovers, Falkirk, Dunfermline and Hibernian - the good name of football was restored. Other full-time sportsmen – rugby players, boxers, athletes signed up and, in a record six days, some 600 supporters also helped to form the 1,350 officers and men of the 16th Royal Scot, best remembered as McCrae’s Battalion and also known as the ‘Sportsman’s Battalion’

The plaque in front of the Usher Hall was laid to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Sir George McCrae’s famous recruitment meeting. On that day the Council also agreed to give this area a new name– McCrae’s Place.

VAULT Sometimes a player is described as being “ a shadow of his former self”. It doesn’t apply in this case but it does bring that phrase to mind!

Not quite sure what I was doing with this photo but somehow I got it badly wrong! It was during an under 18 match against Celtic at Barrowfield training ground near Parkhead. I was looking out for Makenzie Kirk (son of former Hearts player Andy Kirk). This was supposed to be a photo of him jumping with one of the Celtic players. On looking at it later I had to smile at the shadows of the two players on the ground which show exactly what I was trying to capture! By David Mollison

In each programme, we’ll hear the views of one of the many Hearts-related podcasts available to download. We kick things off with Liam

Corbett from the ‘This is my

Story’ podcast.

The Gorgie Juggernaut rolled in and out of Glasgow last Saturday with the unbeaten run intact, the

“Champions League” Anthem playing in the background and

Takis warming up his best “na nana na”. A draw was just about a fair result with Scotland’s number 2 keeping the hosts in the game…

What I liked the most about

Saturday was the fact that we were below our best for two thirds of the match. We never stopped trying to play our game and never looked to settle for what we had.

This team is hungry and full of confidence, something we haven’t seen for a long team with Hearts.

Nine games undefeated having played both halves of the Old

Firm, is mightily impressive. A win today would see that run extend to ten and we’d be two results away from matching the impressive start to the 2006 campaign. That got me thinking about how this squad compares to the squad of 2006 or other legendary squads. 2006 was a once in a life time side: Champions League winners, European cup winners, players from the top leagues across Europe. Playing a brand of football we will be lucky if we ever see again at Hearts. That squad had talent in every department; players playing at the height of their powers. I loved the 2006 squad; every Jambo did. I really, really like our current squad but for none of the reasons I liked the 2006 squad. This current squad reminds me more of the 1998 Hearts version. It is full of players that literally give everything they have for the cause. Yes, they are talented, as were the squad of 1998, but it’s their desire not to let their team mates down, their desire to burst a gut to help out a team mate. That’s what reminds me of the 1998 squad. We have players that sit on the bench, players that could argue they should be starting. Instead of moaning or sulking, they jump at their chance when needed and contribute. The squad of 1998 had the same vibe about them. They give everything they have. When things don’t come off for them, they work back and dig out a team mate. Cammy Devlin on Saturday was a great example of that. He didn’t have his best performance in maroon and struggled to dictate play in an overloaded midfield. He made a few stray passes and was often rushed and harried off the ball. But he never once stopped running. Never once stopped trying to break up play. He was tracking back, just being a total pest and did anything he could to impact the game for his team mates. I love that about this side. This side is full of guts. I am not saying the squads not talented,

VIEW FROM THE PODS

it clearly is, but it’s got bags of character and that’s what I want in my Hearts sides. Now the 1998 and 2006 squad went on to win trophies; I am not saying we are heading towards that. I am just happy to have a Hearts side that I recognise. For too long we have been a project, an almost good side, jam tomorrow outlook. This Hearts side feels like the side we’ve longed for. They play with aggression and energy but they also play with a smile on their face. They play like they love what they are doing. I have often thought that one of our biggest downfalls over the past few years has been the retirement home vibe for players heading over the hill. A changing room should be the life and soul of any team, full of characters and banter. Covid put that to bed last season a bit but I think you can really see the team’s bond on the park now that the players can carry on and socialise away from football. I think it’s great seeing Cammy Devlin down the Clubstore with Gary Locke buying Hearts wallpaper, bedcovers and lampshades. He genuinely looks like he loves it here, he plays like he’s living his dream. I love that. We have been lucky enough to have Josh Ginnelly on the podcast and the overwhelming thing I took from him was his love for the club. Not to bash ex-players but to have guys like Devlin, Beni and Ginnelly, just buzzing to be at Tynie, feels so far removed from the days of Glenn Whelan etc. Joe Savage and Robbie Neilson have to take massive credit for that, I know there are others in the background too that play their part. Together they have built an amazing squad. It is the first time, in a long time, I am excited to go watch Hearts play. It is the first time, in a long time, I’ve liked watching Hearts. It’s the first time, in a long time, I’ve felt connected to a Hearts side. Long may it continue. The Gorgie Juggernaut keeps on rolling. Talking of guts and determination: Craig Bell sadly lost his battle with cancer on the morning of the Motherwell game. Loads of Jambos followed Craig’s story across social media and saw just how brave a fight Craig put up. We were lucky enough to have Craig on the podcast and his determination to stay positive and upbeat in the face of adversity was overwhelmingly impressive. He always saw the positive in his situation and always smiled through it all. I loved seeing his tongue in cheek posts about hospital food or the hospital WiFi. I know Craig’s family and friends are here today to remember “Belly” so I wanted to take the opportunity to say how sorry all Jambos are for your loss and how “Belly” truly was an inspiration to so many.

IN A NON-LEAGUE OF THEIR OWN Graeme McGinty

The meteoric rise of Kelty Hearts from a Junior club to SPFL League Two has not gone unnoticed amongst football fans in Scotland, but not everyone is aware of how it came about and the consequences for the non-league game as a result. Let’s go back to 2013 when the Lowland League first kicked-off as an equivalent of the Highland League and the first steps in the construction of a proper Pyramid system in Scotland.

A total of 12 clubs, almost all defecting from the East of Scotland League, competed in the Lowland League that first season with Spartans ending the season as Champions, but at that point there was no playoff for a spot in the SPFL; that was only to come the following season. The league started to slowly increase in number up to 16 as clubs secured an SFA Licence, a requirement for membership, and two seasons after Spartans inaugural victory, Edinburgh City beat Cove Rangers and then East Stirlingshire to become the first club to be promoted into the Scottish League system. Until that point Junior clubs had been conspicuous by their absence in the Pyramid, refusing to move into Senior football and preferring the closed environment of the Junior game. That was until Kelty Hearts changed everything and sent shockwaves throughout the game. Having been crowned the 2016-17 East Region Junior Superleague Champions, Kelty announced they were resigning their membership and moving to the East of Scotland League in order to enter the Pyramid and gain their full SFA membership. The winners of the East of Scotland League faced an end of season play-off with the winners of the South of Scotland League to gain entry to the Lowland League. Kelty’s first season saw them win a neck-and-neck race with Lothian Thistle Hutchison Vale to the East of Scotland League title. They then comfortably saw off Threave Rovers in the playoff with the South of Scotland League Champions and gained promotion to the Lowland League at the first attempt. They have never looked back.

What their move set in motion was the disintegration of the Junior game. By January 2018 Dalkeith Thistle had declared they were following suit by moving into the Senior game. Edinburgh United and Blackburn United also declared and by the time the East of Scotland League’s AGM in June of that year came around, 26 new clubs had become members.

Meanwhile, a debate was raging in the west of Scotland amongst the West Region Junior clubs as to what the future held for them as they witnessed what was going on along the M8, with some leading clubs agitating for the formation of a new West of Scotland League to fill what was a gaping hole in the new Pyramid system and allow them access to SFA membership. Others were against such a move and wanted to remain loyal to the SJFA. As it turned out, the Covid interrupted 2019-20 season was to be the last for Junior football in the west. The membership of the West Region Junior FA voted to dissolve the league and form a new West of Scotland League playing Senior football and on a par with the East and South, to enter the Pyramid system. This season has seen the handful of remaining East Region Junior clubs in West Lothian move into the East of Scotland League, and for the clubs north of the Tay, they have formed a new Midland League to feed into the Highland League along with the North Juniors. This season will see a three-way play-off between the Champions of the West, East and South of Scotland Leagues for promotion to the Lowland League. In turn, the likes of Bonnyrigg Rose, Spartans and East Kilbride will be hoping to follow Kelty Hearts from the Lowland into the SPFL.

Clubs have been busy investing in facilities and gaining their SFA Licence which entitles them to promotion to the Lowland League and automatic entry to the Scottish Cup. The nonleague landscape in Scotland has changed forever, and for the first time in history every club now has the chance to reach the very top of the game on merit alone.

THE FINAL WORD

Scott Cockburn

Irecently had cause to speak to a St Mirren supporter. Normally, I’d avoid such societal imbalance and awkwardness but he is a colleague and we were one-toone on Zoom so he was going to be difficult to ignore.

With the usual side-step of actual-work-related chat, football took up the opening minutes. But when I say he was a St Mirren supporter he actually went onto tell me he hadn’t been in a “few years” which, it turned out, meant, “haven’t ever been to the new ground” which when I checked added up to more than 12 years. Irritatingly he was still well-versed enough to recall certain results between our clubs though… Nonetheless, as part of his justification of his nonattendance in Paisley (as if justification is needed to avoid Paisley) he proceeded to put down Scottish football and ask why anyone outside the Old Firm “even bothers”. As he well knew, I have followed Hearts ‘since I was young’ and suddenly I felt there was a Zoom sign of ‘mug’ being pointed at me. But actually, the answer was easy. Why do I follow Hearts? It’s not really in expectation of trophies or even the sustained success that he imagined. No, it’s the fact that each week you optimistically walk into a stadium, home or away as part of something ‘big.’ Add in the experience of winning either through skill, strife (or both) and travelling home amongst fellow Jambos with a broad grin,

having just made your weekend and “that’s why you do it.” (At this point I naturally opted to further swing the boot by saying I understood how he would find it difficult to have this experience in a soulless, modern stadium with crowds of 3,000.) But it’s true. Part of the magic of going to Tynecastle is walking into the Wheatfield and taking in the maroon-and-white on three or four sides. There’s already a buzz that just begs to be added to in the game ahead. It’s the same at away games; in some senses even amplified. Easter Road with 3,500 supporters roaring Hearts on? I still remember walking into the Olympic Stadium in Bordeaux in 2003 and standing amongst the 3,000 other fans that had travelled to the South of France and just thinking “this is it. The best.” Even at Ibrox last week - where the days of the full Broomloan Stand are long-gone - there is a sense of excitement and belonging at being in that little corner clad in maroon and white. (There’s probably a few other senses, especially if near the home support but we’ll brush over them.) So, in short, when you arrive at Tynecastle today take it in and savour it. Given the traumas of the past 18 months we are fortunate to be back in proper numbers. Add in the extra-spice added by today’s opponents and it’s another potentially brilliant afternoon at what is in every sense a heart-and-soul venue.
