Lennon returns...

Celtic came to Tynecastle on Saturday the 2nd of October in what was Neil Lennon's first visit to the Tynecastle dugout since the infamous assault...sorry breach of the peace performed on him last season.

The atmosphere was it's useful combustive self and the game was truly a cracker.

Rudi Skacel and Ryan Stevenson were on target as Hearts moved up to fourth place in the Scottish Premier League with a win over 10-man Celtic.


Fifty-eight minutes into the contest, Skacel drilled in a great strike from 16 yards.

Celtic then had midfielder Kris Commons sent off for an ugly, late challenge on Adrian Mrowiec.

Hearts sealed the points when Stevenson picked up a clever back-heel from David Templeton to crash home a shot.

A selection of photos are shown below.  Most of them came after the final whistle as quite frankly I was too busy going mental during the match itself!


 The teams before kick off.

 Looking toward the away end. note the gaps in the corners following the trouble of last season.

 The away end the final whistle.

 A sportman like hand shake for Sergio from Majstorovic.


 Stokes leaves the field.

 Hearts players take the applause.
