Already a vice-president with the SFA ,Ogilvie has been mentioned as a possible successor to Gordon Smith, who resigned on Monday. Fedotovas spoke to Ogilvie on Tuesday to discuss the situation and but left the decision up to Ogilvie whether he wanted to be considered for the job. Fedotovas said: "Obviously, Campbell has a lot of knowledge and is of great benefit to Hearts. He is an honest man who gives a lot to the club. I've spoken to him but this will remain private. The final point is that it's his decision and it's his personal situation. I don't know if he will be considering it or not, this is something for him to decide. It is something out of my control."

It is something private and confidential for the club." Ogilvie is believed to in line to take over the SFA presidential role when George Peat steps down next year and Hearts majority shareholder Vladimir Romanov has warned him off the chief executive role. Romanov: "Campbell is an experienced professional. But the system in Scottish football may turn any angel into a villain."
