Bridge of Djoum Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 On topic. I'm sure we can all agree 6 unbeaten is very encouraging, as is the ability to keep clean sheets. The seeds of a good team are there, a quality addition or 2 is required though. It's also true we've improved significantly this past few weeks. The 2 games v Hibs will not define our season, saying that, I'm a lot more confident now than I was last month. A good result V SJ and we'll be all set for those puddle drinking foil burners. I just want them smashed. I've enjoyed the back and forth with the 3 stooges this morning, they are determined wee things. Maybe time to put it all to bed before the thread is locked.

They have certainly had a tough few weeks. Lennon has rounded on his players publicly and not for the first time either. We look stronger at the back than they do. Midfield will be crucial as ever in these games. That is the area we have been found wanting against them in recent games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say 2 of their back 4 are prone to howlers (Ambrose and Stevenson). If we set up similar to how we did against Celtic, no reason why we can't break them early on. I'd be looking to start Randall at RB and Smith at LB with Souttar coming in. No offence to Brandon but would rather go experience. Bartley is a glorified thug but not quite in the McKinnon depths of thuggery. I'd be hesitant about putting Cochrane up against him. Then again, I thought the same about Brown and Cochrane surprised everybody. As Levein said, Energy is what we have, so it would make sense to continue using what players like Cochrane and McDonald bring to the team.

Beast Boy Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 2 hours ago, Spencer said: Robbie left for the first club that came calling. Contrast that with McInnes and Aberdeen. I'm not sure what you are looking for Toshy. The last 3 wins are most welcome. You are about shooting in yer Y-fronts about 6 unbeaten. Celtic aside - there is no way a Hearts side should be losing to any of those 5 sides. Hamilton was the culmination of 3 points from successive Home games against Kilmarnock, Partick & County. 3 points from 12 at home. Motherwell and Dundee were not great performances but 3 welcome points in each case We are 5th in a shit league just before Christmas yet some on here, like yourself, are seemingly in bold proclamation of being proven right. There is a long way to go. Recent results are cause for encouragement but we have crucial games immediately ahead. Progression in the Scottish Cup remains absolutely vital for our season 2 hours ago, Ryder said: Aberdeen fans never hired a plane with a banner demanding he leave.

No problem Hendricks, lets hope we do carry it on to the new year and beyond. From my point of view I was aiming my remarks at 3/4 other posters who do tend to pick up on anything positive I post, I don't think you fall into that category, and although it could be seen to be getting in a cheap shot, I have had a few aimed at myself, so although I am not proud of having a "cheap shot" when I am correct, imo some posters deserved a little reminder of how they behaved and how wrong they were, not only wrong -but in putting their point across where quite derogatory in their opinion of Hearts, their staff and some posters, including me. I think I am done now, tho, and as you say lets hope it continues, whatever happens the football after the winter break will be exciting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good grief man Let's ensure we take care of them twice in the next 4 weeks. Talking about it and actually doing it are two very different things. Recent displays against the vermin are enough to make me very wary despite such a dominant display on Sunday I for one haven't forgotten about our last 3 visits to Easter Road. I watched their game at Pittodrie on the box last Saturday. They were stinking. Ambrose looks back to his calamitous days of old. We need to address and correct a very alarming recent record against that lot Scottish Cup progression remains absolutely essential I remember a word you used to praise Hibs that riled me was "progressive" in comparison to us. We actually have a case for being the most progressive football club in Scotland off the pitch. On it we certainly have progressed better than Hibs over the last 3 years and our football set-up as a whole is light years ahead of theirs. There's a lot to be proud of our club right now that re-assessing managers' performances on a weekly basis should not be a thing. Not football related: First (and only?)
