This is how supporters on both sides of the Edinburgh football divide reacted to the news on social media:

@hfcsupporters: “A huge well done to Kevin Nisbet who has been called up to Steve Clarke’s squad for Euro 2020. An excellent achievement for Kevin in his first season in the top flight and we can’t wait to see him on the big stage this summer.”

@JackGillies6: “Massive congratulations to Nisbet !!! He honestly deserves this chance he has been simply outstanding this season and worked his socks off. I wish him and the rest of the Scotland squad all the best.”

@NGB80: “Brilliant and well deserved! Celebrate by scoring a couple of goals on Saturday #GGTTH.”

@GGTTH2016: “This is what can and will happen for young players at Easter Road, the only team in Edinburgh.”

@JohnnieSutherl4: “If Scotland play Nisbet up front then the Czechs English and Croats stand no chance.”

----------------------------------------

@The_FOH: “Congratulations, Craig. Very well deserved.”

@HeartsTillWeDie: “Do us proud, Craig!”

@Wallacej1874: “Craig Gordon deserves to start at the euros nobody can tell me different.”

@DMcIver22: “People will call me biased for obvious reasons but Craig Gordon has to be number one for us this summer. Marshall was obviously the hero to get us here but Gordon is just better. We saw that in the World Cup qualifiers.”

@HeathcoteBlair: “Should be starting every game.”
