Hearts goalkeeper Harry Stone has signed a 12-month contract extension as he continues to strive for a first-team breakthrough. Following loan spells at Albion Rovers, Stirling Albion, Spartans, Partick Thistle, Queen of the South and Ayr United, the 23-year-old is facing a critical year in an effort to establish himself in the senior squad at Tynecastle Park. Stone is a graduate of the Riccarton youth academy who played 24 times for Ayr last season, taking part in the Premiership promotion play-offs. He was also a regular at Queen of the South the year before and has agreed to commit to Hearts for another year under new head coach Derek McInnes.

Craig Gordon is Hearts' established No.1 and recently signed a new contract. Zander Clark, a Scotland internationalist, is back-up goalkeeper and Ryan Fulton is third choice. Stone will attempt to impress McInnes during pre-season in the hope of finally securing a senior squad place. Hearts announced his new deal with the following statement today: 'The club is pleased to announce that goalkeeper Harry Stone has signed a one-year contract extension with the club, subject to SFA approval. 'As well as his time between the sticks for the Hearts B Team, Stone has enjoyed loan spells throughout the SPFL with Albion Rovers, Stirling Albion, The Spartans, Partick Thistle, Queen of the South and now Ayr United. The 23-year-old has gradually risen up the leagues during his plethora of loan moves, gaining valuable experience from the Lowland League to being involved in a Championship promotion push with Ayr United last season. 'The Scotland youth internationalist made 24 appearances while at Somerset Park last season to back up the 27 matches he played while at Queen of the South the season prior. Stone has now signed up for a further 12 months in Gorgie as he looks to continue his development in maroon.'

'Ever since I walked in the door of the old main stand in 1999 it's all I have wanted to do. I feel fortunate to still have the opportunity to do that for another year. 'I took my time to come to this decision, I wanted to make sure it was right. I'm looking forward to the new season, determined to make it better than the last.

In the space of only a few hours cancellations of five of its series were announced: "Night Court", "Lopez Vs. Lopez", "The Irrational", "Suits LA", and "Found".

Promotional material for "Suits LA". Promotional material for "Suits LA". NBC "Night Court" ran for three seasons and was reportedly already seen as one of the programs more vulnerable to cancellation. Viewership had softened for the legacy sitcom in spite of a strong first season. Deadline reports that there was a push to get a fourth abbreviated season, but it was unsuccessful. "Night Court" starred Melissa Rauch of "The Big Bang Theory" fame as the daughter of the late Judge Harry Stone and John Larroquette as former night court prosecutor Dan Fielding. Unfortunately, it joins the ranks of series ending on a cliffhanger. "Lopez Vs. Lopez, likewise, was a multi-camera comedy that enjoyed a three-season run. With its cancellation, "Happy's Place" becomes the only multi-cam comedy to survive the season. "Lopez Vs. Lopez has been heralded as the most personal series led by George Lopez, as it deals with the actual relationships with his family. "The Irrational" is a crime drama led by longtime "Law & Order" alum Jesse L. Martin as world-famous behavioral science professor Alec Mercer (Martin), who uses an unconventional approach to solving high-stakes mysteries, canceled after two seasons. Deadline points out that "The Irrational" enjoyed strong ratings in its first season largely due to a lack of competition, since it premiered during a time when the strikes had kept series releases to a minimum. The "Suits" spinoff, "Suits LA," is arguably the biggest disappointment in the list of canceled titles, considering the popularity of the IP. While the premiere episode enjoyed good numbers, the viewership reportedly dropped off steeply after that. The procedural drama "Found" is, like "The Irrational", a series that originally was held as a strike contingency and enjoyed popularity initially, but dropped off once more content became available in the TV landscape. The series stars Gabi Mosely, a former kidnapping victim who now works to find missing people.
