New Hearts boss Neil Critchley makes promise to ‘divided’ Hearts supporters
With the Jambos now at the basement of the Scottish Premiership, the former Liverpool boss is “confident” he can turn things around.

Working with someone like him in the Premier League at a team like Aston Villa was a great opportunity, and I really enjoyed it.” Although there are other people and Steven has been here for three years and achieved success, I believe it would be silly of me to ignore him.
