Saint Jambo Posted October 1, 2016 Share Posted October 1, 2016 I think there is a group of Hearts fans who have convinced themselves that we play poor football and need to change the manager/ DoF. They are going into games expecting to be disappointed and are looking for evidence to confirm their expectations. Yesterday was a good example of where they had seen enough evidence in the first 30minutes and nothing could change their view after that. There are another large group of fans who seem to be ready to join the massively negative squad when things aren't going our way (like the Ross County result). The result is that this place often seems to swing from 'we can win the league' to 'we are going to get relegated' with no in between. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor FinnBarr Posted October 1, 2016 Share Posted October 1, 2016 We had more possession, more shots at goal, more shots on target, more corners...oh, and we scored more goals. And they should've won you say? I think McCrae is still a wee bit upset that Budge and Levein sent his laddie packing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone else who follows Hearts knows that every season there will always be games we play really well in and lose - e.g. St J - and games we play relatively poorly in and win - e.g. yesterday. Last season we played poorly in the second half of the season and created few chances but still did enough to get third. Folk complained they wanted to see better football. This season we've been playing much better and creating lots of chances but not always getting the breaks so far, and folk are complaining we need better results. So basically they want consistently good football AND winning football, which is asking for a lot! I'm not sure how they will ever enjoy being Hearts fans to be honest if that's their expectations.

busby1985 Posted October 1, 2016 Share Posted October 1, 2016 My Motherwell supporting friends said we were excellent, thought we were one of the best sides they've played in a long time. I thought we were pretty timid first half but much much better 2nd. He thought Watt, Dijoum and Kitchen were stand outs and he thought Sam was class before his injury. Said that if we had strikers who could score it could've been another 6 nil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sairyinthat Posted October 2, 2016 Share Posted October 2, 2016 I could be wrong but are we not already Seven points better off than last seasons games vs Aberdeen/Hamilton Accies/Inverness Caley?I'm positive in games 6/7/8 we lost to All Three teams might be dreaming though.

Bazzas right boot Posted October 2, 2016 Share Posted October 2, 2016 I could be wrong but are we not already Seven points better off than last seasons games vs Aberdeen/Hamilton Accies/Inverness Caley?I'm positive in games 6/7/8 we lost to All Three teams might be dreaming though. Depends if round of fixtures or exact fixtures. Aberdeen, piont better off Caley we beat at home, same Ross county 2 worse off Celtic same Hamilton same Motherwell 2 better off Saints 1 worse off. If we can beat Killie and Dundee then it becomes more positive, we drew with both at home first time round last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either the op is hibs or is a sky TV fan who watches multi million pound players from his armchair and then wonders why we don't play like that. Either way, a loser in life.
