StevenNaismith Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 I was in Paisley this morning, not a chance the game will go ahead. All the roads in the area are flooded and there’s been no let up with the wind and rain. From what I know with regards to the team tonight the game being off is a good thing.

Captain Canada Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 If the game is called off, I wonder when they will try to play it? The next two midweeks are out as St. Mirren have a game next week against Motherwell and then the following week we're at Fester Road.

graygo Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 5 hours ago, rick witter said: The main reason we are in this mess is our players go out on to the pitch thinking they have to just turn up and they will win. That was clearly obvious in both the Kilmarnock and Hamilton games at home recently. It about time they realised they are the worst team in the league and try to do something about it!! Correct, but not what I asked you. You blamed it on the supporters for having the attitude that we should be winning tonight's game being the reason we were bottom. That is clearly nonsense.

GorgieFifeLife Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 Rain now forecast to ease at 6pm so 3.30pm inspection might be a bit premature.

BT won't be arsed if it's off I doubt, but will want it confirmed ASAP if it is for scheduling purposes. BT could just fill the time advertising "the greatest heavyweight boxing match for over 20 years" instead. That's the line they've been punting all week on every single program.

Debut 4 Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 29 minutes ago, TheBigO said: Don't disagree with this and actually kind of thought of it as I wrote this post. There's a definite nervousness and Souttar and Halks in particular don't look comfy. BUT I don't think that comes just from the "high line". And at the end of the day, if the keeper wasn't throwing them in for a few games and the other 10 lads got the points they probably merited, then the nerves settle and they trust the system. 👍🏻 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ex member of the SaS Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 1 hour ago, Debut 4 said: But the nervousness can be borne out of how much we push up. We tempt the counter attack and there’s been numerous times we got away with it when teams haven’t capitalised. I think 3 times Rangers broke up the park in the first half as we were wide open down one side of the park. St Johnstone launched ball after ball into the area between our centre backs and the keeper, forcing us to retreat with haste. Don’t get me wrong, I’m loving the positive approach and there has been individual errors as you say. I just don’t get why we can’t find a better balance? The positioning needs to be better in certain moments in the game. Two full backs don’t have to push up at the same time. We’ve seen plenty, entertaining, winning Hearts teams in the past who had more nous at doing both elements of the game more efficiently. As far as I understand Stendel's game plan, they would be getting tackled in their own half and would therefore not be able to punt it over the top. It's down to the mid and forwards to make these tackles and it's not happening. We back off and don't get stuck in ( as we did under Levein against Celtic, oh wow, I said something nice about Levein ) The high press is simply that, you press against their defenders and stop them making a pass. ( the only way to play against the OF ) Then it's down to the defense to stop any hoofs that may or may not land near an attacker. I know other teams don't attack like the OF but never the less, you have to get stuck in early, and stop the other team attacking, the bonus is once you win the ball back it's not the whole length of the pitch until you are having a strike yourselves. Can't understand why professional players can't get this simple concept right. Get stuck in, make tackles ,win the ball, have a shot. IF they can't understand that, then they really should be painters or builders as football isn't for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucille's Thirsty Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 3 wins out of 27! It’s actually horrid thinking about it, then you think we have 11 games left, are we gonna win enough games in that period to save ourselves, my only hope is that we play bottom 6. Onto tonight’s game, a loss and we are down, a draw is hardly helpful, we need three points and with our record in Paisley I can’t see it. Please prove me wrong. 2-1 Hearts win.

Newton51 Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 (edited) Normally it’s a local ref who does the early check so likely to hold off until later for the match referee especially being a bt sport game.

It’s supposed to be about forcing mistakes or forcing the opposition to rush possession to raise the chances of us winning it back under no pressure. It’s never going to be perfect but you need to get the bulk of it right over 90 minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scottie Wanshot. Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 we should run St mirren off the park, they will still be knackered from there game on Tuesday, and the condition's might be a weee bit wet, as long as we play with a defence, and push this highprees game, which the players cant play.
