The 2012–13 season was the 116th season of competitive football by Heart of Midlothian.

Hearts also competed in the Europa League,[2] League Cup and the Scottish Cup.

Summary

Season

Hearts finished tenth in the Scottish Premier League.[3] They reached the Play-off Round of the Europa League,[4] the Fourth round of the Scottish Cup[5] and reached the Final of the League Cup losing 3–2 to St Mirren at Hampden.[6]

Pre-season

Europa League

Hearts entered the Europa League during the Play-off round[14] having won the 2011–12 Scottish Cup.[15] The draw took place on 10 August 2012,[16] Hearts were unseeded[17] and were drawn against English Premier League side Liverpool.[18] The tie is the club's second all British affair in two seasons having been drawn against Tottenham Hotspur in the same round the previous season.[19]

Fixtures

League Cup

Having qualified for the 2012–13 UEFA Europa League, Hearts entered the League Cup at the third round stage.[20] The draw was held on 3 September[21] and the club were drawn against First Division side Livingston,[22] Hearts won the tie 3–1 and progressed to the quarter-final.[23] Hearts went ahead through a deflected goal from Danny Grainger, before Marc McNulty equalised following a defensive mistake.[24] Marius Žaliūkas then scored twice in quick succession to cancel out his earlier error.[25]

Hearts were drawn away to Dundee United for the quarter-final.[26] Callum Paterson opened the scoring before Johnny Russell equalised for the home side,[27] before Hearts had Darren Barr sent off[28] but managed to force the match to extra time.[29] Hearts went on to win the match 5–4 on penalties in a dramatic shoot out, with 14 penalties being taken in total.[30]

The draw for the semi-final took place on 8 November, and Hearts were drawn against fellow Scottish Premier League side Inverness Caledonian Thistle.[31] Andrew Shinnie put the Highlanders ahead shortly after half time, but debutant Michael Ngoo struck the equaliser[32] before Scott Robinson was sent off for a two footed tackle on Inverness player Owain Tudor Jones.[33] The teams could not be separated and the match went to penalties with Hearts going through for the second round in a row, with Philip Roberts missing the last penalty.[34] The result meant Hearts would return to Hampden nine months after lifting the Scottish Cup,[35] and would face either St Mirren or Celtic in the final.[31] The following day St Mirren beat Celtic 3–2 setting up a non Old Firm final.[36] Following completion of the round Inverness asked the Scottish Football Association (SFA) for clarity over whether Hearts player Danny Wilson should have been suspended for the tie, due to speculation over whether he had served a ban from his time at Rangers.[37] The SFA later confirmed that he was eligible and had served the ban when he joined Liverpool in 2010.[38]

Hearts were led into the final by Gary Locke[39] in his first game as the club's official manager,[40] with Andy Webster captaining the side.[41] Hearts went ahead early on through Ryan Stevenson, although their early dominance faltered with Esmaël Gonçalves equalising just before half time.[42] Hearts were struck hard in the second half with Steven Thompson and Conor Newton scoring consecutively to make it 3–1, before Stevenson struck again to make it 3–2.[43] The result meant the cup returned to Paisley for the first time.[44]

Fixtures

Scottish Cup

Hearts entered the Scottish Cup at the fourth round stage. The draw was conducted on 5 November[45] and drew the cup holders against Edinburgh Derby rival Hibernian,[46] a repeat of the 2012 Scottish Cup Final.[47] The team crashed out the cup, courtesy of an 84th-minute goal from David Wotherspoon.[48] The shot was heavily deflected[49] off Hearts captain Marius Žaliūkas into the net.[50]

Management

At the end of the previous season manager Paulo Sérgio's contract expired and he returned to Portugal awaiting an offer from the club.[69] The club offered him reduced terms and with concerns offer the size of his player's budget for the new season,[70] on 7 June 2012, Hearts announced he had rejected the clubs offer and would not return to the club.[71]

On 26 June 2012, John McGlynn was appointed as manager on a one-year contract.[72] McGlynn had previously been caretaker manager on two occasions in 2005.[73] Former Hearts player Edgaras Jankauskas was appointed as Assistant Manager[74] with Gary Locke remaining as first-team coach.[75]

On 28 February 2013, with the club sitting second bottom of the league[76] McGlynn left the club by mutual consent.[77][78] Coach Gary Locke and player development manager Darren Murray took over as the club's interim management team.[79] On 16 March, Locke was appointed as manager until the end of the 2013–14 season.[80]

On 3 September, the club signed Alan Combe as a coach but was also registered as a player.[109] He was able to sign out with the transfer window as had been released from his contract with Greenock Morton on the last day of the transfer window.[110] In October free agent Rudi Skacel returned to the club to train,[111] however a deal to re-sign him was stopped by Hearts transfer ban.[112] The club sent three more under-20 players out on loan during the first half of the season, Brad McKay,[113] Callum Tapping[114] and Jack Hamilton.[115]

In December Arturas Rimkevicius was brought in on trial, with a view to signing in January.[116] The deal fell through due to the club's enforced restriction on signing over 21's.[117] On 4 January 2013, with his short term contract expired Peter Enckelman was released by the club.[118] A Further departure was confirmed on 7 January, with Ryan McGowan completing his move to Chinese club Shandong Luneng Taishan.[119] The club had accepted a £400.000 bid the previous week.[120] On 18 January, Danny Wilson signed on loan until the end of the season, from English Premier League side Liverpool,[121] this was closely followed by his Liverpool teammate Michael Ngoo who also arrived on loan.[122] Further departures included non-first team players Callum Wyllie,[123] Michael Thomson,[124] Danny Thomson[124] and Ewan Saunderson,[125] meaning six players departed during the January transfer window.[123] In February, Andrew Driver was allowed to leave the club to join Houston Dynamo on loan until his contract expired in the summer.[126]
