The seven nil was a freak one off result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you read the article? You seem to have missed out these quotes, which actually back up the tactics employed by Robbie for the Celtic game... " But he concedes they will have to alter their tactics to combat the threat of their visitors. "We believe we can win any match," McIntyre told BBC Scotland. "There does have to be a different system deployed against Celtic. We lost heavily last season by really having a go at them and pressing them high up the park." Also... " "You've definitely got to be a wee bit more cagey and a wee bit more structured in terms of making sure that you're not leaving wide open spaces," he said. "They have got players with pace and trickery that can really hurt you." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benzinho Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 the main emphasis of the post is that he believes he can beat them and he will instil that into his players , i never heard Robbie saying we could beat celtic , or hibs for that matter. He's actually been quoted on a couple of occasion saying he want's the players to believe they can beat Celtic, so he cleary believes they can. The problem is perhaps more the players don't believe it yet. This was a quote from him before the Celtic game... "We will need to be at 100%," said the head coach. "We need to compete and work hard and if we do and do the right things then we can win." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. Just once in the pre-match interview when asked about his chances against the "champions", I would love to hear Robbie to say something like "They are just a bunch of overpaid poofs" and then watch the players exit the tunnel pumped up and screaming like a scene from Braveheart and get torn clean in from the off.

gowestjambo Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Too many people at Hearts are frightened of celtic. Whether this is the Management or Players or perhaps both! As long as we believe we cannot win - then we won't! Our whole demenanour from kick off typifies the lack of belief. We seem to be in a unique situation where we think we are not good enough to compete with the O/F, and shows in our play - and think we are too good for everyone else, and this shows in our play!! Time for Hearts to bring in a psychological Guru, or an old fashioned boot up the backside! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
graves2002 Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Which is all fine except for the reality. If that had been a Scottish team playing the filth on Thursday then the offsides wouldn't have been given and the smeltic player would have stayed on the park. All the gung-ho spirit in the World won't help you win when Gollum is the referee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fxxx the SPFL Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Uh-huh. But the frequent three and four goal pumpings aren't. The smellies are in worse shape this season and are there for the taking IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smith&Weston Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Bring back Paulo Sergio for these games. He wasn't afraid of Celtic and our team is better in attack than that team. I agree we have developed a negative attitude to games v Celtic and that needs to change. Get on the front foot and scoring the first goal is important in these games.

Time for Hearts to bring in a psychological Guru, or an old fashioned boot up the backside! That's harsh. I don't think we're anything like the only club who think Celtic are better (they are and should be. ) I also don't think he fears Hibs the way you suggest.
