The 2021-22 campaign was a triumphant return to the top flight for Hearts as The Jam Tarts, led by manager Robbie Neilson, secured a spectacular 3rd-place finish in the Scottish Premiership. This position not only cemented their status as the 'best of the rest' outside the Old Firm but also clinched a highly coveted spot in the Europa League play-off round. Leading the line was the dependable centre-forward Liam Boyce, whose 10 goals proved crucial in a season built on grit and consistency. The campaign's momentum was further amplified by a magnificent run to the Scottish Cup Final, which, despite a loss to Rangers, confirmed The Jam Tarts' resurgence and remains a proud, defining chapter in the club's modern history.
