Neil Critchley Appointed Manager of Hearts

Neil Critchley is set to make his debut as Hearts manager this Saturday against St Mirren, following the sacking of Steven Naismith after a previous defeat to the same team. Critchley faces the challenge of turning around a struggling team that currently sits at the bottom of the Premiership, with only two points from eight matches. This match is crucial as it is the first in a pivotal eight-day stretch that includes a European fixture and a derby against Hibs. The Jambos have historically performed well against St Mirren at home, winning 15 of their last 19 meetings. However, St Mirren is looking to build on their recent success, having won their last encounter with Hearts. Supporters are advised to arrive early for the match and to adhere to stadium entry protocols.
