Dunfermline Athletic

Preview Hearts

Wednesday, 25th Oct 2006

Brian Winter in charge again as Dunfermline face Hearts.

Pars fans have long since given up the idea of watching their side win in Gorgie. The last time Dunfermline left Tynecastle with full points was 22 matches ago more than 16 years back when George O`Boyle and Ross Jack were on target as the Athletic triumphed 2-0 in February 1990.

The Pars two Premier League victories were a bit like the proverbial buses, not just one but two came along during season 89/90. Ross Jack and Paul Smith were the scorers when Dunfermline won 2-1 in October 1989.  Sadly since then it has been very one sided and with Hearts pushing for a Champions League place next season there is little chance of the Jambos easing off since it nears the end of season.

Nobody really knows what to expect when you travel to Tynecastle.  Nobody knows which team will be selected and how they will play.  There are always potential surprises so let`s hope its the Pars who spring the surprise on Saturday!
