New boss in Leith has a fair idea of what's coming at Tynecastle despite never having experienced an Edinburgh derby.
Sheffield's Steel City Derby tested Nick Montgomery’s mettle to the core while the F3 Derby in Australia saw him rewarded with a bizarre trophy made of CONCRETE.
Then came the smaller scale, but no less frantic, F3 derby in the A-League where just this year his Central Coast Mariners side were rewarded with a trophy made with concrete extracted from the F3 motorway which links their home patch with Newcastle - home of the Jets. Montgomery said: “We were the only team in history to win all three derbies in one season. Two away and one at home.“I think some players just love derby games from the off. It’s always quite hectic, frantic even, at the start.
“I’ve got some great memories of playing in Sheffield derbies. The atmosphere would be electric from the moment you got on the bus to arriving at the stadium, when you could really feel the energy of the fans. I won plenty of Sheffield derbies. But my first memory was playing against Wednesday just four games into my professional career."
“We went 1-0 down, then I assisted Michael Brown for the equaliser. They scored in extra time, a free-kick that avoided everyone, bounced and went in at the back post. But look, the memory of the game and the atmosphere was unbelievable.
