Rudy T Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 Not sure why anyone is putting much stock behind what Robbo has said or indeed making any comparison to MacKay. Robbo and Levein are pals, Mackay and Levein most certainly are not. Robbo probably hasn't seen a Hearts game since we played his ICT team, he's kind of busy in the Highlands. Robbo doesn't actually say much. Says he's sure we'll pick up points, Craig will protect the players, its not easy with injuries and Craig will believe he's the man to turn it round. Not exactly an earth shattering endorsement nor a MacKay style attack. Its a standard reply about another manager from a fellow professional and pal, as usual from the wee man he shows a bit class. I'm not sure any fans don't believe the injuries will make a difference, its how much of a difference that's the big question and will we see some actual football break out at some point. Without a doubt CL will lead the team out at Hampden on Sunday what happens after that is anyone's guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jambonian Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 Just now, Smith's right boot said: Likley. Tbh I'd kepp walker, Whelan and if any chance Naismith until Sunday. Some folk have mentioned testing Uche, I wouldn't but if he was rested I wouldn't moan. Rangers are beatable. You'll disagree but it would be brave of CL to leave out said players so they have more recovery and a better chance for Sunday giving our shite position in the league. Brave/ daft... Think if any of them or all of them are available i'd be giving them half an hour or so off the bench just to ease them in. Last thing we want is to play them from the start and their various injuries start to tell. If they get through the St Johnstone game ok then one or two could start against Rangers 2012. This game is an irrelevance anyway with little to no chance of winning so no point risking them too much. We've many more important League games to get through where we're desperate for points. I personally have no interest in that game coming up and would rather concentrate on getting up the table. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
