Willie McCartney (date of birth unknown — 24 January 1948) was a Scottish football referee〔 and manager. He managed both of the Edinburgh derby rivals, Heart of Midlothian (Hearts) and Hibernian (Hibs). The ''Sunday Herald'' newspaper listed McCartney in 22nd place in their 2003 list of the 50 greatest Scottish football managers, citing his role in the development of Hibs' Famous Five forward line.〔 The newspaper also said that McCartney "was intelligent, jovial and had great presence",〔(Scotland's 50 Greatest Football Managers : 50 to eleven ), ''Sunday Herald'', 8 June 2003.〕 and described his ultimate failure to win a major trophy as "unthinkably cruel".〔 ==Hearts manager== McCartney was appointed Hearts manager in November 1919, replacing his father, John.〔(1914–1924 ), Heart of Midlothian.〕 He had the task of rebuilding the side that had been largely decimated in the First World War, including three dead on the first day of the Battle of the Somme.〔 Although Hearts drew big crowds during the early 1920s, the team was unsuccessful and narrowly avoided relegation in 1922.〔 Hearts improved through the rest of McCartney's time, particularly after the signing of prolific goalscorer Barney Battles, Jr. in 1928, but defensive frailties meant that they did not win any trophies.〔(1924–1934 ), Heart of Midlothian.〕 In 1933, McCartney asked to be relieved of clerical duties to concentrate on working with the players, but this had no discernible impact.〔 McCartney resigned in June 1935, as the new chairman wanted a more hands-on approach to management.〔(1934–1944 ), Heart of Midlothian.〕 McCartney had signed and developed many good players, but ultimately failed to deliver success.〔
