Nope just going by my eyes. Most of the games I've seen from Ibrox are a glorious sea of red, white and blue whereas most of the games from the Glasgow City Council arena have the 'fans' going all out for halloween early dressed as green seats.

Anyway away from the good (Rangers), the bad (celtic) and the ugly (Lennon) it looks like Mad Vlad might have something else to worry about aside from checking down the back of the sofa for change to pay his players with and who is going to buy Tynecastle when Hearts fold.

Hearts have been issued with a bill for £1.75m which HMRC claims is due in taxation for a batch of players on loan at Tynecastle from the Lithuanian club FBK Kaunas up to seven years ago
Oops. Still at least their recently announced share issue might cover the shortfall.

Hearts have launched a share issue seeking £1.79m from supporters in exchange for a 10% stake in the club; Tynecastle insiders are adamant the close proximity of that figure to the tax issue is purely coincidental.
