Eckauskas Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 Allan McGregor, Nacho Novo, Kris Boyd, Barry Ferguson, Jean-Claude Darcheville. What more reasons could you want? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Therapist Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 In the long run, results don't mean that much. It's about entertainment, damnit. How noble and sporting you are. You're also completely wrong - winning is everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVB1874 Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 I would honestly rather watch Hearts - Lithuanians and all - than that anti-football. Ur surely having a laugh??

topcat Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 The game is about more than fancy step overs, clever interplayed passes and precision freekicks Defenders are footballers too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

269miles Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 The game is about more than fancy step overs, clever interplayed passes and precision freekicks Defenders are footballers too. Just as well for Rangers sake. Listening to the game on ITV4 last night it sounded as though 0-0 at home was fantastic achievement , all part of the big plan to go abroad and win again. Townsend et al didn't have the cajones to have a go at Rangers who were pathetic. Not even Dundee Utd , in their defensive football heyday , played like that in a home European tie. I won't be tuning in for another 90 mins of anti football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacDonald Jardine Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 Is it fundamentally, though? I watch football to be entertained; it's the reason why people fondly remember great goals or great examples of skill (Juanjo!). If I asked you to reel off memorable occasions from games that took place a few seasons ago, in which - hypothetically - we scraped a dire 1-0 win, would you be able to do it? In the long run, results don't mean that much. Football is so repetitive; if you don't win a competition in one year, you'll always have next year, by which point everyone'll have forgotten about the previous year's competition (except where Hibs are concerned, obviously). I could barely tell you about supporting Hearts last season. Hell, I could barely tell you about half of the games I've been to this seaon where Hearts are concerned. It's about entertainment, damnit. Yes, fundamentally it is. I could probably recall a number of 1-0 scrapings that are memorable for various reasons, not least the context. It does beg the question if you're priority is watching good skilful football why would you confine yourself to watching Hearts, or indeed any Scottish team?

Old Hearts Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 Yes, fundamentally it is. I could probably recall a number of 1-0 scrapings that are memorable for various reasons, not least the context. It does beg the question if you're priority is watching good skilful football why would you confine yourself to watching Hearts, or indeed any Scottish team? I think the poster in question has a certain love affair with the 'flairmeisters' from the East of the city ..... Part of the 'Mowbray manta' that it isnt a results business, it's all about entertainment!! Bollox to that .... give me winning regularly anytime!
