Janos Balogh, Heart of Midlothian Football Club
~
It was a great pleasure to be asked to provide the foreword for this, The Official Heart of Midlothian Quiz Book. I’ve been a supporter of this wonderful team for over 40 years now, and for seventeen of them, I was privileged enough as a player, to make more appearances for the club than any other person. As both a supporter and as a player, those four decades have brought a multitude of highs and lows. The 70s led to a massive decline in fortunes, as the club was relegated and promoted almost year in/year out for seven years before the greatly respected era of the 80s under Alex MacDonald. Hearts have also played regularly and performed well in Europe. We’ve dominated the Edinburgh derby and of course won two Scottish Cups; both of which sparked off massive street celebrations in Gorgie. However, as well as all the great victories throughout those times, there have also been a whole host of painful defeats to endure; and often it’s events off the pitch that are as much debated as the football played on it. Hearts are a big talking point, simply because the club means so much to so many people, and even those who don’t support us still like to methodically study what’s going on at Tynecastle! Heart of Midlothian is an institution steeped in history and drama, and this quiz book is the perfect vehicle for those Hearts’ debates and conversations to keep going.
As supporters we all cherish the club and we want its future to be both stable and prosperous. Nevertheless, it’s the past that gives our present day predicaments something to be compared with. This book is all about recollecting the past; those great games, the great goals and the great players. Hearts have had an eventful past to say the least, and I hope you enjoy remembering it as you make your way through a thousand quiz questions on the greatest and most successful football team Edinburgh has ever produced.
Gary Mackay, Heart of Midlothian Football Club (1980-1997)

A fascinating walk down memory lane. Had me picking my brains, my friends' brains and then consulting the whole pub! Even Google didn't have some of the answers. Exhaustive research makes for an indispensable guide to just why this club is such a sporting institution.
