From amateurs to SWPL champions – how Eva Olid transformed Hearts

Sunday night would not be the night for thinking about next season. Not for the players, anyway.

But things will look very different without Olid in charge. She announced she would be leaving weeks ago in an act of “transparency” and confirmed their would be no U-turn despite their victory.

Very matter-of-factly, she said: “I believe in the destiny, and I think things happen for a reason, so no, I stay with that.”

An incredible loss for the club, it leaves the mind boggling even more when the Spaniard said she “wanted to stay”.

Cuts to the team’s budget had long been rumoured and Olid hinted she wouldn’t be getting the backing to compete and contest the title next season.

It’s a sad tinge to a superb stint in Scotland for Olid who will not be short of suitors or supporters.

Her players gatecrashed two of her post-match interviews where the spirit, togetherness and love was evident between both parties.

“It’s been a rollercoaster,” Olid concluded, “but we’ve finished on the ultimate high.”
