Former England manager Sir Bobby Robson has declined the opportunity to take up a position with Hearts.
The 72-year-old had been in discussions with the Tynecastle side regarding a possible move to Edinburgh.
But the ex-Newcastle boss has turned down the chance to work under the new regime at Hearts, spearheaded by majority shareholder Vladimir Romanov.
The Jambos were hoping Robson would take up the challenge in either a director of football role or as head coach following the resignation of John Robertson last month.
Robson seriously considered the offer but has rejected the move for family reasons.
