Let’s get this into perspective. A team that is just off the bottom of the league and missing their best players, outplayed Hearts. Got to give them credit. They deserved more.
 

Robbie needs to rethink this lateral play thing and the obsession with only one up front. Before the penalty there were 7 hearts players circling the box in possession but only Boyce in the area. I do not get how we can score when the opposition have 8 players to 1 in the penalty area.

Outplayed Hearts !! Calm down although I do agree about the lack of pushing up and getting players in the box. A point however is a point. Very disappointed with Dutch winger  though...  thought Henderson was better than him.

[vladisacoward]

Aye, its the pitch Robbie. QoftSth were playing on a different one right enough. Then its the ref's fault because he gave thema stonewall penalty.

 

This is remarkably similar to the Alloa league cup debacle when he all but humiliated himself in his post match interview.

 

Just go.

[gnasher75]

Goal finally came when Naismith was right up front with Boyce. There's an idea for you Robbie!

 

Unfortunately despite signing 5 wingers we still don't have any wingers so here's my team going forward.

 

               Gordon

   Popescu Haring Halkett

Smith  Irving McEneff  Kingsley 

                 Walker

          Boyce   Naismith

Absolute bell end, blaming the surface.....shameful from Neilson. Wake up son, wake up

He' knows it wasn't the pitch

[Rick Sanchez]

Next game MUST start with Haring and McEneff in midfield.

[Mdoug79]

Naismith has to play up top!! The one player we have with the football brains to link up with a fantastic Liam Boyce.

I think Stevo is gobsmacked at how shite this Hearts team is.  He’s seen our last 2 games and seems surprised that we were even worse than last week. 

He did mate, looked genuinely shocked at how shite we are. 

[All roads lead to Gorgie]

Come on Robbie it wasn't the pitch that slowed us down. Dearie me!

[OmiyaHearts]

Can only imagine how grim it'll be next season.

[suds66]

Neilson, you are a complete embarrassment.

Excuse after excuse, you have the audacity to blame the fecking pitch.

Please pack your bags and get as far away from Gorgie as possible.

[SE16 3LN]

Shite performance, barely deserved point, take it and move on. Some players act like the opposition are going to lie down week after week. 

[Jamhammer]

New players must look up and forward and think where the **** is everyone? (Everyone is behind them). Played for 10-15 minutes then nothing until Naismith came on.

Neither newby was that impressive but as a team with, maybe two or 3 exceptions we were dreadful. That midfield, week after week is creating nothing.

Timid. Negative possession and we’ve got a striker playing from the half way line.

McEneff and Naismith should have started.

Of course they should have! Boyce desperately needs somebody alongside him!

Neilson blaming the pitch is living in cloud cuckoo land!

[Maroon Sailor]

TBF to Robbie those pitches are hard going

 

Don't think I've seen a decent match on them

[Japan Jambo]

pitches fault apparently. feckin' disgrace with his post match comments again. do one you poundland Levein.

[stevie]

Quick question,when was the last time Hearts ha a”real” manager?

 

[Jamhammer]

Pitch is to blame? 

[NANOJAMBO]

Team that has its own plastic blames plastic pitch because the players have to "take an extra touch and it slows the while game down". 

 

Wot he said. 

[Kidd’s Boots]

The difference McEneff brings to our midfield is incredible. If he isn’t starting ahead of Halliday and Irving next week then RN should be shown the door. Everything he does gets us moving forward. Brings Boyce into the game where he needs to be.

Thats very good that.

 

10 parter Ive got it on series record.

Superb series. Definition in many ways of insanity

[Fire_At_The_Disco]

Performance was shite, but we will win the League. It took Hibs 3 years to get out this league.......it could be worse, you could be a snow sniffing Junkie from Leith

Yet another terrible performance. Far, far too many passengers in the team. 

Nail on head.  

[Bobby Tomaschek]

Of course - it was the surface!

Absolute loser attitude from Neilson. No surprise that the team play as they do when he’s the man to inspire them. 
Fast coming to the realisation that it’s not possible to be enthused by a Neilson side. 

[Lord Beni of Gorgie]

Neilson talking sense there but will be bypassed in the seethe. 

 

Protecting his players but clearly disappointed they wanted too many touches 

[Nelly Terraces]

Above everything, watching Hearts is just so bloody boring. Really is, just monotonous & the reason I stopped going every week, it was a waste of my free time & had better more enjoyable things to do.

We deserved nothing are you serious they had nothing to offer up front and got a penalty that was never a penalty we were poor but did more then enough to get the win IMO 

Good to see Robbie contributing to the thread.

Has he ever came out and actually admitted that hearts just weren’t good enough?! 

[Der Kaiser]

Even Jones in his interview looked embarrassed to talk about his "penalty".

 

Can't believe these two former pros are saying that penalty was correct. 

 

Cliche incoming...

By far the better team. 

 

Really, honestly, really. 

 

We were fecking pathetic. 

We were the better team you really think they deserve to win that ? 
they had one shot on target and a penalty that should never have been 

am not saying we were good far from it but out the 2 sides we were the better team no question

Then stop with the patronising shite he has come out with regularly since he first took over.

Been saying this for weeks. Naismith gets stick on here but he is constantly played out of position. 

[Jodami]

Our worst performance of the season, a jammy draw against a shit side with an injury crisis! There is a reasonable argument that none of our midfield is good enough, McEneff excepted as we haven't seen enough of him. 

[Captain Lithuania]

Some folk gutted that we managed to get a point there. See you miserable sods next match.

Move on to what? How can we have confidence in the manager and these players in the future after that absolute shambles?

Guess what. Robbie blames the pitch. And the ref. And thinks we deserved a win. 

 

 

No he didnt.

 

"We're disappointed not to take 3 points. Did we do enough to take 3 points? Probably not".

 

[JJ93]

Our first draw of the season. I would rather we kept Wighton and brought him on rather than Henderson.

[1874robbo]

Stevo is spot on!!!

 

[Jamhammer]

The only positive is the Sportscene lot are spewing we equalised

[credit card]

Tippy tappy backwards sideways AGAIN. How many times now this season a full 5 minutes of possession back to where we started. Mince.

I take it you didn’t hear the part where he said we didn’t do enough to win all three points?

Different team when Naismith linking up with Boyce 

very poor performances throughout against a second string QOS who apparently are another samba playing outfit if you believe the bbc pundits 

Yep, he should have been on 30 mins earlier IMO. Halliday and Irving very poor tonight. GMS started fine but really doesn’t seem strong enough. Too easily brushed off the ball. I would have kept Jasteneer in and take GMS off. Just a poor performance tonight.

This the boy could only laugh when asked about it say everything you need to know 

[E3OBE]

If we get back up we’ll come straight back down. Absolutely honking.

 

Significant changes required in the summer - lets get some players in that can move! Absolute statues. Aaron McEneff should be starting every week.

[One five]

I still can’t see that’s a pen against us don’t care what they say 

[Nelly Terraces]

Stevo TOTALLY saying it how it is, and how it should be.

 

Well said son. Knows what it means to play for Hearts & what we should expect from our team & management.

[south morocco]

Naismith made an immediate impact. I know he is getting on but he did change it tonight.He’s the only player that takes responsibility
