## Resource

Alastair Stupart’s upcoming fifth book, tentatively titled “Vlad’s Men: The Hearts’ Managers Who Served Under Romanov,” dives into the wild, chaotic, and unforgettable eight-year tenure of Vladimir Romanov, who oversaw over a dozen managers—from George Burley to Valdas Ivanauskas, the Cup-winning coach. Stupart, a longtime Hearts chronicler who’s also documented pandemic football and 45 years of away games, is channeling his passion into this deep-dive history while donating all proceeds to the Foundation of Hearts—a fan-funded initiative that’s already raised over £20 million to keep the club alive. This isn’t his first rodeo with the Foundation, making it a powerful blend of storytelling and support for the club’s future. Keep an eye out—this one’s coming next year.
