neilnunb Posted November 20, 2017 Posted November 20, 2017 There is no ******* excuse for losing to that trash with home advantage for the third time.
Jambo dans les Pyrenees Posted November 20, 2017 Posted November 20, 2017 What a moneyspinner for our new stand
Ibrahim Tall Posted November 20, 2017 Posted November 20, 2017 An optimist would say this is a perfect opportunity to correct a few wrongs of recent years, get the fans fully back onside and start to really build something.

soonbe110 Posted November 20, 2017 Posted November 20, 2017 23 minutes ago, Hendricks said: I don't care what plans they had in place for the window or what budget they had in their minds. They simply must increase that given this fixture. Nothing football related at Hearts should take precedence over us being in far better shape by the time that game comes around. At a time they are announcing 'profit' then they should damn well be spending some of it on a few first team STARTERS, not squad fillers. The fans deserve that some immediate attention is paid to the team given all we have done for the club. Losing yet another Scottish Cup tie to them is simply not an option. If that happens they should all be gone the day after. I suspect you would accept relegation as long as we beat Hibs in the cup.
Jam Tarts 1874 Posted November 20, 2017 Posted November 20, 2017 Gary Locke to take the team for this tie.

Texia Posted November 20, 2017 Posted November 20, 2017 All comes down to this game for Levein tbh even if we win in December.
whytebeard Posted November 20, 2017 Posted November 20, 2017 Dreading this game, sadly they are far better than us at present from a playing staff prespective. i honestly can't see the wet pieces of p##h that dawn our jersey at present being good enough or up for it

Agreed, I think this could turn out to be a defining moment in Levein's second stint in charge. He needs to rekindle his appetite and fight soon, that was what made him relatively decent in charge first time round. A lot of folk won't forgive Neilson for losing to that mob, and I suspect the fans will afford Levein even less lee-way, given he has over-seen everything that has brought us to this point.

Sexton Hardcastle Posted November 20, 2017 Posted November 20, 2017 Season definer over the next few weeks. Can either kick on and grind out results and win this run of home games getting us in contention for a top 4 finish and a possible cup run. or rather and expected bombed out the cup in a drab and gutless 1-0 defeat and lingering in the bottom sox of the league. up to you craig and players.
Cruyff Turn Posted November 20, 2017 Posted November 20, 2017 This could be our sweet revenge or the death knell in Leveins coffin.

jambomjm74 Posted November 20, 2017 Posted November 20, 2017 Biggest derby and probably game of the season. The winter break - new signings - players sold or wanting away, will all influence. Bring it on !
Goldenboy Posted November 20, 2017 Posted November 20, 2017 35 minutes ago, Hendricks said: Is this real life???? We played them once in a cup tie in 30 odd years and now routinely draw them season after season. All I can say is there had i) better be significant investment in the squad the minute the window opens ii) Craig Levein and his entire coaching staff jobs are on the line. There is simply no way he survives us having another cup defeat to them Couldn't have put that any better. Spot on.
Lord Beni of Gorgie Posted November 20, 2017 Posted November 20, 2017 Fancy that. Leveins got a make or break period post Christmas. Might surprise a few but I reckon it will be break. Hope for pleasant surprises

Paolo Posted November 20, 2017 Posted November 20, 2017 Make no mistake. This is a big big game for us. Coupled with the league match a few weeks before. I think ten winter break makes the two matches one after the other.
132goals1958 Posted November 20, 2017 Posted November 20, 2017 Outwith Celtic every other team in the league is capable of beating each other. We have home advantage against a team that has lost at home to Hamilton and St Johnston.

...a bit disco Posted November 20, 2017 Posted November 20, 2017 Hibs have won 4 out of 30 Edinburgh Derbies at Tynecastle since 2000.
mitch41 Posted November 20, 2017 Posted November 20, 2017 Come on Ann we're put up with crap for too long let's try and win the Scottish Cup. You know what to do.
Kiwidoug Posted November 20, 2017 Posted November 20, 2017 To be honest I would have preferred a tougher challenge but it will be good fun in our world class stadium and we can all look forward to the 4th round.

Portable Badger Posted November 20, 2017 Posted November 20, 2017 Bring on the sisterfister shite !!!
Don DaniEL Posted November 20, 2017 Posted November 20, 2017 Ah well this games will sort out the men from the boys. I not it a fix type of guy but this draw was fixed.
soonbe110 Posted November 20, 2017 Posted November 20, 2017 In reality it’s perfect timing for us. We dont budget for cup runs since Budge took over so the incremental £4-500k of revenue from this game means Levein can accelerate his recruitment plans if the players he wants are available in January. With a bit of luck we will have a seriously improved squad by 19 January who will have played a couple of closed door games in preparation for the cup tie. On the other hand we may have the same squad as today!
Hendricks Posted November 20, 2017 Posted November 20, 2017 For us middle agers its a remarkable run of drawing them. From the 1979 Scottish Cup 1/4 tie (we lost 2-1) we had to wait 15 years for another cup match (the 2-1 Wayne Foster game in 1994). We then went a further 12 years before that glorious Hampden semi-final humping we dished out. A span of 27 years with just 2 cup matches. Since then we have played them in the 2009-10, 2011-12, 2012-13, 2015-16, 2016-17 and now the 2017-18 Scottish Cup and both the 2006-07 and 2013-14 League Cups. 8 times we have been drawn against them in less than a decade. Crazy.

sairyinthat Posted November 20, 2017 Posted November 20, 2017 Not a difficult draw for us,they are pretty poor.My only concern is what player/s get slung their way when they get on the phone to Celtic for the yearly borrowings.We make the right signings in the window and we will nullify that.

I always thought we came in for the 3rd round. Anyway, when my dad started taking me to Tynie 64 years ago he forgot to teach me to be scared of Hibs.
Hendricks Posted November 20, 2017 Posted November 20, 2017 Monday 21st February 1966...........the last time we beat Hibs in ANY cup tie at Tynecastle. Over 50 years ago!!!! http://londonhearts.com/scores/games/196602211.html Ending that record would be a fitting way for the new main stand to witness its first Scottish Cup game. Over to you Levein. This will be the biggest game of your club managerial career.

Locky Posted November 20, 2017 Posted November 20, 2017 Can't believe I'm actually disappointed we drew that shite. The last 2 seasons, the cup defeats to them have effectively ended our season. This year our season is over already so not sure how to feel about this.

Dr Ian Malcolm Posted November 20, 2017 Posted November 20, 2017 The prospect of Hibs turning up at Tynecastle and turning us over isn't the worry - they were fortunate to get to a replay on both previous occasions. It's the lack of faith in Hearts being able to get it done at home.
Penrices left boot Posted November 20, 2017 Posted November 20, 2017 Too many shite bags in our support. Same folk that slag the manager and team for having no bottle and fight are the first ones touching Thier toes and biting down on hearing we got hibs. Have a word.
feedthefox Posted November 20, 2017 Posted November 20, 2017 This has injected much more excitement in the up and coming games, desperate to see improvement as we approach tie v the vermin. Levein knows his nads are on the block come the 20th so I expect him to do whatever it takes to take us through.

AlimOzturk Posted November 20, 2017 Posted November 20, 2017 Whilst I am not bothered about drawing them, our luck in the draw has been utterly rank for such a long time now.
