    The Positives From This Season

    2 semis 2 wins over mhanky mob Steven finally beating hibs Hibs bottom 6 lol and hibsing it as usual. Rosenborg game. Frankie Kent is a positive but need another alongside him (Rowles isn't answer although decent, far too weak against more physical strikers)

    Partly delusion, but moreso cos it matters to them. Firstly, they NEED to sell and have for years. Ironically that's because they spend outwith their means, and have done for years. The sales prop them. Secondly, it's a metric by which they measure themselves. They see selling a player as success - we see keeping a player as success. That's both in our boardroom and as a fanbase. We'll sell players and probably need to get better at it, but the truth is our first option will be to offer the contract. Hibs as soon as someone gets a goal or an 8 out of 10 in the paper, they're all over valuations and the for sale signs are up. I said it about Josh Campbel this season, he'd the next touted. The little scrote got injured, but he scored 2 goals just before and the chat had started about his value and "interested parties". Even though he's pish!

    On the plus side

    On that basis every deflection away from the GK is a fluke. Man U's third goal was a fluke then, was going toward the keeper, deflection of the inside of the Cove player leg.

    You can't really factor in sales unless you know that there will be any for definite. Granted Beni is likely to leave on a free, I'm not sure the club will sell Shanks as it could be more beneficial to keep him to contribute to our success next season. Because of his age, lack of pace and the fact he's only got a year left on his contract, I don't see anyone coming in with an offer that would meet our valuation. It may still happen but we'll see. Cochrane in a similar boat, I think the club would cash in on him for a reasonable offer but I'm not convinced there will be a bidding war for him. Even if he were to be sold, I don't agree he would leave an enormous hole. Kingsley is already a better LB in my opinion and Penrice has been signed as backup to that position anyway.

    SNP 'sold out' future generations - Greenspublished at 09:37 09:37 Scottish Greens co-leader Lorna Slater has just confirmed the end of the Bute House agreement and accused the SNP of "selling out future generations". She said: “This is an act of political cowardice by the SNP, who are selling out future generations to appease the most reactionary forces in the country. "They have broken the bonds of trust with members of both parties who have twice chosen the co-operation agreement and climate action over chaos, culture wars and division. They have betrayed the electorate." She said that the first minister ended the agreement in "such a weak and thoroughly hopeless way" which "signalled that when it comes to political co-operation, he can no longer be trusted." We've been let down by SNP time and time again'published at 09:45 09:45 In a lengthy statement marking the end of the power-sharing agreement between the SNP and Scottish Greens, Lorna Slater goes on to say that the Scottish Greens were due to vote on the co-operation agreement in the coming weeks. However, she says they will no longer have the opportunity because of "the most reactionary and backwards-looking forces within the First Minister’s party" which "forced him to do the opposite of what he himself had said was in Scotland’s best interests". She adds: "If they can’t stand up to members of their own party, how can anyone expect them to stand up to the UK government at Westminster and defend the interests of Scotland?" Slater says the Scottish Greens were "let down by the SNP time and time again" on a variety of issues including oil and gas targets and council tax. She ends the statement by urging SNP members who cared about the climate, trans rights and independence to consider whether they were in the right party.

    If ever there was an example of being drunk on power the greens were . They thought they were Brenda big baws and now they are dumped . Can’t wait to see their ugly puses on tv trying to save face , esp that weasel Harvey and Greer .

    Bongo picking the one Hearts youngster to leave for a worse club and end up doing well. We’ve had dozens and dozens over the years that all ended up in the lower leagues of Scottish football or give up entirely and now he’s giving us the “foreign coaches can spot a player” chat …

    Thanks for your reply. I couldnt imagine how the Indy vote (currently the majority of voters, according to poll) would be able to take forward without all supporting a single party. I understand your idea, re constitutional convention - but I cant see any person or group strong enough to do so. Alex Salmond wont be able to do so and Joanne Cherry is too divisive. It is certainly not in the interests of the SNP or any of their MP/MSPs - due to individual self interest. Steven Flynn might see this as his opportunity to make a challenge to be the LEADER of a new party. Any ideas who could make this happen?

    Aye cos I'm with OTT on this one. I think McKay is wholly underrated. He's been a big miss this season for us in unlocking defences in packed games. And Oda, rememember is young and has had a real stop-start season. What he's produced per-minute has been excellent really, and I think he has a big season ahead of him imo. He's one who does have impact - we're talking about ceiling on ability to do things faster and more aggressively, I think Yutaro's ceiling is high on this. The way he zips passes first time, looks to play one-twos on the move, and how he is always looking to get shots off. Really like the lad. Forrest is what he is and I like him for it. Not against having Allan Forrest in our squad at all. That famous old Thurs-Sun squad depth thing. If Forrest is a Sunday guy away at Motherwell after we've played Fiorentina away on the Thursday, I'm not against that in the slightest. But at the same time, continual and gradual improvement is the obvious and correct approach at Hearts, so if we can replace Forrest (or ANYONE else) with better we should and will.

    Correct the more cup runs the more chances we will finally win one again!

    Valid point as long as the same question is posed on the value of Westminster

    Kilmarnock next Sat - Ticket/Travel thread

    Maybe im pessimist but its never over till its over two defeats for the famous on spin and 2 killie wins, its down to 5 with 3 to play tall order maybe but having watched us blow many things over 50 years I won't take anything for granted until its finally sealed. So hopefully a win or at worse draw, anything else and you never know football can always spring surprises.

    VAR check poss hand ball penalty

    Players cheating, which now occurs all over the park is more of a bugbear for me, a poor touch is now followed by a player hoying himself to the ground now, followed by an award of a free kick. This "clever play by the player" narrative should be done away with. If referees didn't have to adjudicate 22 players basically trying to cheat at every tackle he could do his job an awful lot better imo.

    VAR check poss hand ball penalty

    It’s the handball rule that needs looked at again, not VAR. Some of the penalties given for what was essentially an inconsequential accidental handball are ridiculous. Offside needs looked at as well. Being offside by a fecking toenail isn’t why the rule is there

    Throw-ins

    That recent home game v Livi was the 1st time for me seeing a KO go straight back to the 'keeper. Mental!!! Mind you, I've seen us manage to work a ball all the way back to our 'keeper from both free kicks and throws in at or around the opposition's box. Recycling the ball is one thing, but deary me, the number of times we do that kind of thing.

    DUP leader goes offline

    Their stance on birth control and abortion puts them on the same side of the fence as the American right. I have no comment on whether that qualifies as 'far right'.
