Pressley dropped as fans protestHearts captain Steven Pressley was dropped to the bench for the 1-0 SPL defeat by Rangers at Tynecastle. Pressley missed the side's league game against Falkirk last Monday, after sporting director Alex Koslovski said he was "not mentally fit" to play. About 200 Hearts fans protested outside Tynecastle after the game over affairs at the Edinburgh club. A number of people were arrested by Lothian and Borders Police during the hour-long demonstration. Paul Hartley was given the captain's armband in Pressley's absence. The defeat by Rangers was Hearts' final game before Eduard Malofeev stands down as temporary head coach. Malofeev took over from Valdas Ivanauskas, who was given leave following illness. Eugenijus Riabovas will take over on Monday. He will become the third straight Hearts head coach to have previously been in charge of Kaunas, the Lithuanian club sponsored by Tynecastle owner Vladimir Romanov.  Taken from the BBC |
