When is the Hearts AGM 2024? Date, start time, location and resolutions on the table for shareholders
It's been an up and down year on the park for Hearts, and supporters will now get the chance to grill those running the Tynecastle club.
The Jambos suffered just three defeats in their first 17 games of 2024, securing a comfortable third place finish in the Scottish Premiership table - and qualifying for the Europa Conference League. That allowed them to keep hold of top scorer Lawrence Shankland, despite intense speculation linking the Scotland international with a move to Rangers during the summer transfer window. However any hopes that the Gorgie club could carry their momentum from the previous campaign into the new season quickly evaporated after a woeful start to the season that cost manager Steven Naismith his job.
Replacement Neil Critchley's appointment on the back of an underwhelming stint with English side Blackpool did little to enthuse the Tynecastle faithful, but the former Liverpool coach has at least managed to get some wins on the board - including a memorable home success against Omonia Nicosia. However the Jambos still sit at the foot of the Premiership table, meaning shareholders and supporters will be keen to ask some big questions about the club's future direction.
