RIP Fellow Supporter

[CMurdoch]

My sincere condolences to the sons, family and friends of the man who died at Tynecastle before last nights game.
I don't know the man but he was at last nights game at the age of 85 despite the horrendous weather.
A great football man who saw his first Hearts game at the age 5 in 1939.

Despite his great grief one of his sons also thanked Paramedics, St Andrews Ambulance Staff, Stewards and members of the public who came to his fathers assistance and tried desperately to revive him. True class.

Peace and Love from another football supporter across the city.

That's a touching post and I second it.

Hearts and Hibs supporters are first and foremost fellow human beings.

Touched a wee heartstring that story. Very, very sad but no doubt he'd seen some wonderful times following his team - Terrible Trio etc.

Sad news to read this...thoughts are with his family..🕊️ RIP..

[The Harp]

Not many would've considered attending a match on such a bad night, but this man, even at 85, turned out to support his team. A real football man, irrespective of the team he followed.
Sincere condolences to his family and friends.

RIP

Absolutely spot on: if there can be any solace for his family at this time at all I hope it comes from the fact that he passed away while doing something that he clearly loved. RIP

Sad news. Rest peacefully auld fella.

[Scouse Hibee]

The guy was 85 and attended his first Hearts game at the age of 5. Truly a lifelong supporter. RIP fellow football supporter.

[StirlingHibee]

Sounds like a true football man. My respects and RIP.

[Carheenlea]

Sounded like a proper football fan, and after seeing Hearts for the first time age 5 in 1939, he has been witness to 80 of their 145 years.
Will have seen some fine players in his time, and sure he would have been a familiar and well known figure among Hearts fans. Always sad to see them go.

[One Day]

My sincerest condolences go out to his family. R.I.P.

[O'Rourke3]

I hadn't read the news. What a terrible thing to happen but as others have said, he was doing what he did regularly because he loved supporting his team. Condolences to the family. RIP sir.
