Tynecastle Park has long been the home of Heart of Midlothian Football Club, with the ground having hosted football matches since 1886.
In the early 1990s, however, Hearts were very much willing to forego all that history as the club looked to move out of their spiritual home and relocate to a purpose-built arena more than seven miles away from Gorgie.
During February 1991, Scotland's back pages were awash with stories of then Hearts chairman, the late Wallace Mercer, announcement that the club were in the process of drawing up plans to build a 30,000 all-seater stadium at Newton Farm, Millerhill to the south east of the capital.
