Ann Budge insists Hearts and Hibs must take hardline stance on troublemakers after branding derby shame WORST in a decade

Hearts chairwoman Ann Budge has had enough of the chaos caused by fans during Hearts-Hibs matches and has called on both Edinburgh clubs to join forces and ban troublemakers from their stadiums after last week's unsavoury derby scenes in the derby.

Hibs fans threw items including a corkscrew at Jambos skipper Lawrence Shankland as the striker celebrated scoring his side's equaliser from the penalty spot. Budge is set on finding those causing trouble and making sure they're not allowed back into Tynecastle. She wants the Hibs bosses to do the same at Easter Road and admitted that both clubs need to take responsibility for a small number of their own fans who are breaking the law.

The Edinburgh businesswoman said last week's scenes were the worst she's seen in her 10 years as chairwoman of Hearts. "It is not the first time in my last 10 years that this has come up but it might be the worst, I think. One thing we can definitely do is make sure we identify the perpetrators if we can," she said.

"We all have expensive CCTV kit so it's about really following through on that and demonstrating to people that 'sorry, that really is not acceptable and no, you won't be allowed back'. So being firm is important. I don't know how we stop it all getting in because you can't strip search 18,000 or 19,000 people."

"I don't know what conversations have gone on because I have been on holiday. I think the heads of security of the two clubs have been talking. All I know is my view and others' view, which is: Take how long it takes to identify the individuals involved and let's stand together and make sure they are not allowed back in."

"It is really important. It is not one set of fans and not the other. I was watching the game even though
