Yes the performances of late have been nothing short of disgraceful. However in football your only as good as your last performance. All hearts have to do is turn on the style and destroy a team 5-0 and it will be rectified. the players and fans need a confidence boost. Only way to do this is turn up and perform. Is there a crisis at the club at the moment? No I don't think so. The fans deserve better. Some fans have delusions of grandeur. Fwiw I believe Robbie isn't the man to take us forwards. He was a safe option to get us out of the league at the time. The performances under his stewardship hasn't been good enough for this football club. Robbie more than anyone will know this. It's another catastrophic lesson for Ann budge in the runnings of a football club (not department) Time is also up for her also. Just think...... Surley it can't get any worse. Can it? You never know a nil nil with Dunfermline might be just that..... Oh wait! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The goal difference is better but actually if Raith were to win all their remaining games and we were to only pick up 4 points, it wouldn't actually take crazy scores to swing the goal difference to. That said, I still expect us to win the league as I don't expect Raith or Dundee to win all remaining games. Can no longer win the league at home to Alloa. Could win it the next day, but only if Raith drop points at home to Arbroath. Dundee would also have to drop points this Tuesday away to Ayr or home to Morton on the Saturday. More likely dates to win the league now look like Tuesday 13th when we don't play but Dundee are away to Dunfermline and Raith away to Queen of the South. Or Saturday 17th when we're away to Morton (and Raith play Alloa, Dundee play ICT). Final thing to say mathematically from today is Dunfermline can't catch us now so lowest possible finish is third. Good times. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

N Lincs Jambo Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 Don’t think we’ll totally H1b5 it but looking at the remaining fixtures for us, Raith and Dundee, unless we start actually winning games I can see the winning margin only being a point or two. Fortunately Raith still have to play Dundee. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Good point. I guess same true of the Dundee ICT game. With Raith away to Alloa still possible we could win it that day if that is the first time they drop points but far less likely. I would think it would make sense to bring the Morton game forward to Tuesday 13th as if they win on the 17th the next round is a week after so another fixture to rearrange.

Morgan Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 It’s over, it has been for a good while now. The two main points of embarrassment are that it should have been ‘done and dusted’ several weeks ago and, it’s now going to be a ridiculously small points difference between us, and the second placed team. It should never have come to this, but it’s Hearts, and, more significantly and poignantly, it’s ‘Neilson's Hearts’. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Still not celebrating If they sit in and we can’t break them down ( every chance) and draw 0-0 then I think we could be in bother. Morton away I could see another 0-0 inverness and Raith would beat us if they played like I seen them during the week Yes I know we have a healthy lead but Dundee and Raith muse smell blood Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bigdav Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 We cant win it on fri night. The Morton game will no longer be on the sat as they will be playing in the cup that day so likelihood is we will win it when not playing due to other teams dropping points- big anti climax- just like the whole season really.

The fan club will be along soon to remind you that Robbie "the messiah" Neilson is a stick on to have us 2nd in the Premiership. When in actual fact the only thing that's any better about the club than last season is that we now employ a goalkeeper. Oh, and the fact you can now have your dinner on the concourse obviously. How could I forget that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The first time RN took over he inherited a Premership squad ( we were relegated on the points deduction ). This time around he has a Championship squad that was in need of a a complete overhaul.
