Hearts' cup final bonus rowHearts players are reported to be in dispute with owner Vladimir Romanov over their Cup Final bonus. The squad are each said to have been offered £10,000 after their victory over Gretna, but skipper Steven Pressley has been told to negotiate double that. It turns out Pressley couldn't bear to be parted from the cup - so he took it home. After waiting 13 years since winning the 1993 final with Rangers, the 32-year-old refused to let the trophy leave his grasp. Pressley said: "The cup came home with me. I took it home and had a nice little party in the house. It's been a long time and I don't intend to give it up." Pressley also had to attend the dentist after losing a tooth during the final.
