Hearts bosses have thanked fans for their support after confirming that all tickets for the Premier Sports Cup, second-round, tie at Falkirk on Saturday have been sold out.
The Jambos host Dundee United on Sunday, September 1 (3pm) and tickets are now on sale.
Meanwhile, Steven Naismith (pictured), Hearts’ head coach, has reflected on the disappointing defeat at Dens Park against Dundee and he said: “We did not have the energy or application we had against Rangers.”
He told Hearts TV: “The first 20 minutes was very scrappy and there were loads of 50-50 balls and we came out second best on them.
“When we were trying to raise the tempo we seemed to take an age to do everything. That plays into the home team’s hands and then they get a goal which was really poor from us.
“The second goal was really poor and then the third goal we are all over the place. The second half we got a little bit of reaction and we scored a goal.
“We then had two really big chances, if one of them goes in with 15 minutes to go and the game is against Dundee. Then we allowed Dundee to manage the game. They killed the game, they took their time.”
