Missing the bake off , i mean really you should just get that on and put the heartbreak of watching Hearts on me , you know for the good of your Health. Cake os less dangerous to health than being a Hearts fan

There midfield seem to be able to play our midfield with ease and it's just their poor quality that is saving us - just!

Robbie generally likes the ball on the deck, I don't think he'll be keen on Berra shelling it with every second touch. Hopefully gets him telt.

 

As expected, despite his assist, Frear is essentially a man down, like he has been all season. 

 

Plenty of time for improvement. But its basically a reserve team, so I'll hold off on any further criticism till full time.

Been saying it for a few seasons now. He’s simply not good enough for Hearts. Will be in League One next year. 

Absolutely this. Been tried many times now, just does not have it

Bazzas right boot

Been pretty poor tbh

 

Only Lee with pass marks.

Young gk ok as well.

 

Both centre halves dodgy at cross balls.

Popescu continues to give away position.

Little width

Frear very poor

Wighton isolated

Irving although a few flashes of skill shown, not involved enough 

 

After going 2-0 up so early I expected more.

 

Popescu and Frear are the two signings not impressing at all this season so far.

Having said that we are ahead, they will tire,  and if we don't do anything stupid we'll likely win 3/4-1.

Was just away to post this , I enjoy it and Jimmy is a good foil. If you think thats bad listen to the commentary as basically any other club in Scotland. The shout outs were quite funny also on Saturday. They were more exciting than the game

for certain

 

Bit of a weird dig to make tbh

 

As you say, Laurie and Jimmy are good together. Enjoy Laurie and Mark's podcast too. Seems like a good lad.

Mind you, the commentator is going to give me a heart attack with his sudden verbal explosions.

 

Quite funny, really.

Agreed

Also getting some serious comments at HT on the first half. Of course it is from.an East Fife perspective but at least throughout they have discussed the game with no shout outs or chat about sandwiches.

Started well but ended the half poorly. I feel sorry for Wighton having to chase the aimless punts forward.

 

Robbie looked absolutely fuming in the run up to half time.

 

Come out high tempo start of the second get another couple goals and secure the win hopefully.

Is it coincidental that Berra returns and Hearts revert to hoofball.   


Berra has been brutal. We have been all over the place at the back.

tbh, giving Popescu likes to give away possession in his own half at every opportunity I am not surprised he has went to hoofing it.

Lee and Irving need to do more, in particular Irving imo to get the ball and make a pass. Frear is also looking pretty poor with each passing game.

Robbie's just remembered how Berra plays. Could be hooked for Kingsley.

Really?

Watching Berra launching these long balls to no one in particular sends a rather nasty shiver down my spine its like a re-run of the past

I was just raging at Popescu. Shortly after I watched Berra shuffle 20 yards forward, stop and launch another ball forward. Back to Popescu it is 😂

ive been trying to count how many players we have on the pitch, cause it feels like about 9 or 10 !!!!

only hearts.jpg

Considering we have Frear and Brandon playing it effectively is 9.

Frear in particular has been disappointing since he joined. Henderson and Brandon will never make it. Berra is finished. 

Think Brandon might,hopefully, I like him but Henderson,can't believe he's still at hearts

Berras first game in about 7 months and check the pelters.

 

Good to have a support that has your back, eh?

If your team went down 2 in the first 3 minutes how would you react? East Fife are throwing everything at us because if we had scored again it was game over

get a fecking grip the pair of you

 

Throwing everything at us? Semi pros who've probably all been out working today. 

 

Few balls over the top and we're all over the place. 

 

Lucky we got those 2 early goals cause that was pretty pathetic for the rest of the half.

Think the criticism is a bit harsh, as a duo they work well together.

 

I've known Laurie for a long time, and he is a top guy.

No excuse for some of our players but playing on these plastic monstrosities is pish! 

 

Yeah the pitch is a joke, it just doesn't bounce properly.

 

I like bouncy things.

We are absolutely hummin at the back, no strength in midfield and gash up front.

 

 

 

What about the rest of the team?

All he has to do is pass it rather than pump it long. He has players around him that will take the ball short to feet.

Not semi pro at all - professionals, as this is the Professional football leagues. If they were semi pro they’d be playing in the highland league. They might be part time, but still professional. 

 

I really do not understand the overreaction - we clearly don’t have our strongest team available, half these players will not be at hearts next season, we are still 2-1 up. 

 

Not disagreeing that it was it was a poor showing from us, but man chill out!

Stendel got rid of him for a reason.

Berra appears to be an intelligent guy when interviewed. Why then after 5 or 6 hopeful punts to nobody in particular can't he twig that he's just giving possession away?

Axe to grind with criticism of our commentary team? 

 

Tonight is a laugh apart from when he shouts out of silence.  As I've said, he'll give me a heart attack of the wrong kind.

Aye pleased you are finding this all entertaining.

Horrible performance from players with a chance to stake a claim for a starting place.

That’s what I can’t fathom out. These guys should be screaming for the ball to get on it and make something happen. These players are nowhere near good enough. They should be sticking out in these games when in reality the East Fife players look better than them. They can’t come off there at Half Time thinking they have contributed enough.

Pretty standard reserve team LC away game against determined lower league opposition. The type of game that 99% of us would never get to watch, listen to or analyse in a normal season because there would be no way to watch it other than going (and only a few hundred of us would get along). Fully expect us to get a couple more goals in the second half.

Frear is utter pish and how Henderson got a new deal is a right head scratcher.
