Most of our players hate playing on artificial.

Two games lost on the trot, that in itself should be enough for most of us to feel that sickness again.

I don't expect us to win every match no matter how poor this league is but those 4 losses alone tells me something is terribly wrong and there is a long ways to go, could this get worse?

Apart from a couple of games, we have been consistently grim. It’s all very well blaming the defence but the main problem is midfield. We don’t have a ball winner or a midfielder capable of acting defensively. Halliday is not the answer, along with Roberts and Frear, he should be shown the door.

As annoyed at that result as I am, we must be the only support to be raging at the manager when top of the league by six points.

May I suggest that you look at the resources our so called manager has in comparison to other managers in the league. We should be battering most of these teams but a majority of our performances so far have been rank average thus far . Lose midweek which is a huge possibility then the heat it truly on.

100%. Anyone trying to excuse this has chucked it. Performances have been dire all season.

 

That's now Alloa, Dundee, Dunfermline and Raith who've embarrassed us so far. 


You can add East Fife to that for all but 2 minutes of the 90 odd plus dismal performances against Arbroath and others that we’ve got away with.  Today was not a blip.  We’ve played 12 games in a shit league and lost 25% of our games.  We’re arguably every bit as bad as last season.

I see your point. When you look at  teams such as Livi and Raith everyone knows that on paper we have better players which tells us what?

 

It can only be tactics or players attitude.

 

 

Clearly attitude. Half of them didn’t look interested for 60 minutes today. Billy big times.

Neilson is proving that he cant prepare the team for crucial league games and thats a huge worry when you factor in the vast majority of the squad have zero pride in themselves or their performances

Awful attitude in the playing side Indeed. Naismith, Halket, Walker, Smith still here from last season. Looks like Halliday and Boyce have the same problem. That's half a team that only turn up when it suits. Get rid of them all.

Think Raith are 9 behind with 2 in hand, beat us on Tues win their games in hand they are level.

This league is far from over

One of the games in hand is against us. At worst three behind.

our final game is away at Raith on their plastic pitch. not a great thought

Raith Rovers shocked Scottish Championship leaders Hearts at Tynecastle by administering their second defeat in three league games.

Playing in their first match of the year after a Covid-19 outbreak, Raith led thanks to Gozie Ugwu's debut goal.

Regan Hendry then had a penalty saved by Craig Gordon before Manny Duku converted from the spot after the break to double the advantage.

Reghan Tumilty added a third before Liam Boyce's consolation brace.

It was Raith's first win at Tynecastle since December 1993 - an especially remarkable achievement given they had trained just once since the club was effectively closed down to combat a rash of Covid cases.

Former Hearts goalkeeper Jamie MacDonald played his part with stunning stops from Steven Naismith and Stephen Kingsley, before another astonishing stop denied Naismith a leveller in stoppage-time.

Robbie Neilson was shown a red card at full time after protesting to referee John Beaton but, despite this setback, his side remain six points clear at the top of the division.

The sides meet again in a rearranged fixture on Tuesday in Kirkcaldy (19:45 GMT).

IF we are still top with a few games to go maybe they will abandon the league and award us the title. 😍

Sorry but you can't have two immobile CM in haring and Halliday. They will be chasing shadows for 70 mins then get subbed for being knackered.

Irving makes three in there with zero mobility.

Not falling for your wee double negative. You’re Hibs and your banter is honking. Now away and watch your team hopefully Hibs another game at Hampden. 
 

No doubt we will see you again on the Tuesday night match thread after we (in all probability) get beat again.

Frear and Halliday should not be near that team. Sick of them being played when they are both mince. Dumbfounded Robbie can't see it. No longer surely a case of keep playing them -  they will get better. They won't

We play them on Tues if they win they will be 6 behind and they will still have 2 games in hand?

Can't remember Smith having a worse 45.

Lost count of the number of passes he over-hit today.

 

He wasn't alone in that respect, however. Our passing accuracy was poor and we consistently failed to put corners into dangerous areas despite having many opportunities to do so.

If we start Ginelly, we win that game in the first half. 
 

he might only last 60mins but we’d be ahead before subbing him.

 

bringing him on once we’re behind is just pointless in my opinion. 

 

Halliday, Berra, Popescu and Frear are not hearts’ standard. 
 

not sure why Robbie was having a go at Beaton. The only person he has to blame is himself.

Neilson showed his anger today, swapped the wingers a whole five minutes early and had the subs warm up . . . whoa scary stuff 😂😆
Why only one corner out of 15 in on top of a guy we know can’t handle crosses, once where he had just injured himself? 
How many times do we have watch this same hotror movie?

That was our best team bar Ginnelly today, against a team that have barely trained in weeks. The defence was awful and we don’t have a reliable CH at the club.

A good coach motivates his players. If he cannot do that with certain players he should bin them. RN does neither.

Halliday was too busy having cozy wee chats with the loanee from  Rangers to Rat rovers.

Not sure how Ginnley stops us going 3 goals down. The defence is a shambles.

I’m not even looking at the final game yet.

our next massive match is Tuesday night on their plastic pitch and if we approach that game the same way our superstars approached this one then expect the same result!!

Add in a few others to that list like Halkett, Roberts and Walker. 

Blaming the ref is just an excuse to cover his own shortcomings.

Someone on here said Raith would be our rivals, they played well today at times. We were grunting for a lot of the game, definitely not a walk in the park this time around.

 

Grunting against a team who came from the league below aswell

Best ask those jokers in Maroon today, my guess would be about attitude from the top to the bottom off the club.

All thinking it would be a stroll today but not at Hampden

As disgruntled fans what can we do?

 

- It's lockdown.  We cannot protest with our feet.

- STs are already paid for, so refusing to watch via Hearts TV is futile.

- Stop subscribing to FOH harms the club but could be last resort.

 

My annual Hearts TV membership is due to be paid soon.  Cancelling my subscription might be my only option.

 

Thankfully, all the other clubs ae taking points off each other.  Still, losing at home in this manner  is pathetic.

Hence the double negative. 
 

To be honest I don’t mind other teams fans on here. Just find it strange behaviour when they pretend to be Jambos.

Can is say that in my opinion nothing has changed in the last two seasons other than the standard of opposition, hence we can now win more than we lose. We have been a hard watch for a long time. The Club needs a major overhaul.

We are slow, boring, predictable and disjointed.

Not an ounce of freshness, not a player who would get you of your seat.

 

2nd to so many balls and they all need a rocket up their @rses.

 

But they seem to have any respect for Robbie.

 

It needs a big, big change.

This unfortunately.

First half was woeful all round.

Hard to believe we're 6 points clear.

Note the three teams behind us have all beaten us in the league this season. 

Not sure why Robbie was so upset with the ref. He seemed determined to get a red card.

Hats off to our ex coach and ex goalie.

 

Classic deflection. In the presser it'll be all about how we were in complete control and if it hadn't been for the ref cheating us and some excellent saves from the keeper we'd have strolled it. He's already used this approach a couple of times this season - it's straight from the CL playbook.

If we take this game in isolation it was just one of those days.

 

As soon as we properly upped it in the 2nd half we looked like scoring every attack. Some unreal saves and a couple of poor misses. 
 

However, the individual defensive errors today were unacceptable. 
 

What Neilson has to take responsibility for however is he has not figured the midfield and overall formation out yet.
