Rix in running for Hearts job

HEARTS are refusing to be drawn on speculation linking Graham Rix with the managerial vacancy at Tynecastle.

The former Chelsea first-team coach has emerged as a possible replacement for George Burley.

Rix, 48, has been out of the game since leaving Oxford in March and is currently a scout for Wolves. He attended the Jambos’ Premier League win over Dundee United, prompting the possibility of the ex-Arsenal striker taking over.
