Heart of Midlothian, known colloquially as the Jambos, finds its roots in the year 1874, with Tynecastle Park in Edinburgh as its bastion.
The roster of the Maroon brigade is valued at a respectable sum of around £17m, as the folks over at Transfermarkt have it recorded. Not too shabby for a team outside the erstwhile 'Old Firm', eh?
On the count of headcount, the Heart of Midlothian can boast a troupe of 31 lads, possessing an average age of 27. With wisdom and youth both at the disposal, it is unsurprising they're beaking their way into top-tier competition.
And what's the squad been up to this season, you ask? Well, trotting across 3 competitions, the Jambos have etched a commendable position for themselves. In the Premiership, they've soared to the dizzy top spot. They have also marched on to the second round of the League Cup, while advancing to the fourth round in the time-honoured Scottish Cup. Ladles and jellyspoons, the maroons mean business this season!
