Hearts expressed sadness at the death of former captain Alan Anderson.
The former defender sadly passed away this weekend at the age of 85.
Anderson spent 13 years at Tynecastle between 1963 and 1973, making over 500 appearances for the club he supported.
200 of those appearances were made with the captain’s armband as Anderson scored 38 goals winning five Scottish caps in the process.
Anderson made his Hearts debut in a 2-1 home win over Dunfermline in January 1964.
More than a decade later, he took his final bow in maroon as the Jambos drew 0-0 with St Johnstone in April 1976.
Paying tribute to Anderson, the club tweeted: “It is with great sadness that we have to inform you of the passing of Alan Anderson, one of the Heart of Midlothian Football Club’s finest servants.
“Alan was a Hearts man through and through, and was proud to make over 500 appearances and lead the team he loved.”
