How long a Hearts Supporter | 6-10 Years |
First Hearts match | Hearts 2-4 Celtic April 1999, I was late getting into football and even longer getting into Hearts, was already 13 in '99, I remember the game well, Celtic kept replying almost instantly each time Hearts managed to hit the back of the net. Gutted! |
How long a member of London Hearts | Less than 1 Year |
How did you find out about London Hearts | It came up on Google, I'm loving all the stats |
Favourite all time Hearts Player | Juanjo! There was something about the wee man, will never forget his swansong when he scored a couple of goals against St Johnstone |
Most memorable Game | 5-1 and 4-4 in 02/03 were rather memorable but the one game that always sticks with me was the home leg against Stuttgart, that was unbelievable, almost failed my French speaking test at the school the next day due to my severely hoarse throat from all the singing the night before! I'll never forgive Petric for blazing it over the bar though. |
How often do you get to games | Used to be a season ticket holder but don't really have the money these days, I make it to a handful each year and I've always tried to make sure I attend every derby game, as a Hearts fan I have never seen the Jambos lose to Hibs when I've been in attendance |
Favourite English team | Man City probably, I'm a big Oasis fan, as good a reason as any really |
Lowest moment | Just before Jeffries left we lost 3-0 to St Johnstone at home, I think it might have even been straight after we got hammered 6-2 by the Hibs, everyone was waving red cards and there were protests after just about every game, the team were looking awful as well and this was when our financial problems started coming into focus, the only thing that could have made the situation worse was being in the relegation mire, it was a horrible time to be a Jambo |
Best Hearts goal | Juanjo's superb volley against Celtic in August 2000, Fuller's cracking solo effort against Motherwell and Hartley's free kick against Hibs in the Semi Final are probably my favourite goals, but in my opinion the greatest ever goal I've seen at Tynecastle was by Riera when Bordeaux beat us 2-0. That was out of this world, it just came out of nowhere and it's not often that Craig Gordon is beaten from more than 40 yards. |
Best thing about being a Jambo | The fact that no matter how lean our success is we always seem to have a big club kind of feel. Hearts are just an extremely attractive football club, we are the epitomy of true Scottish grit, the heart and soul of Edinburgh as they say. |
Proudest moment | The Scottish Cup win this year, easily! |
How did you become a Jambo | My Dad was a Jambo it was inevitable |
