The match takes place at Tynecastle on Tuesday 4th August with a 7.30pm kick off. Tickets available from the usual outlets.
The match takes palce days before city rivals Hibs travel down to The Reebok Stadium to play Gary Megson's side for Jussi Jaakelainen testimonal game.
Speaking of Hibs, after the next batch of names from the world of football (Jim Gannon and Martin Ling) have been mentioned to take over the Easter Road hot seat, we here the next person to be considered is Victor Palmieri. The youngster reached Hibs radar after they learned he managed to guide East Stilring to the First Division on Football Manager. There is a problem that he's still at school, but Rod Petrie has been impressed by his ability to work to a tight budget.
Only joking...
