Does your son have legs? Perhaps he could walk or cycle? Honestly parents taxi-ing their kids everywhere, no wonder the planet is a mess.

 

To be fair, Scouts could be absolutely miles away, or whatever (no public transport, living in a rural location etc.)

 

But ... there are folks in my street who chauffeur their offspring to Stewart's Melville in a 4x4, a distance of ... wait for it ... 0.5 miles. Vroom, vroom!

Do Stew Mel still insist on shorts come rain, wind, sleet and so on?

You are quite correct, it was the latter lm referring to really. It's the same with schools, parents dropping their kids off and picking them up, fair enough if it's miles away but not if it's in the local neighbourhood within walking distance.

 

Anyway this is a football thread so l predict 4-0 Hearts for tonight.

[avhudtheteeshirt]

This is the game we see if the players are really trying to play for the team?

Last week's results won the league, now its over lets see if they can put together a string of results till the seasons over!!!

We're staying in temp accom due to a severe plumbing issue at home so are miles from the venue.  It's his first ever night.  He suffers from quite severe anxiety and we're pretty proud he's going along at all.  I'll be happy to be there to support him though and make sure he feels safe and comfortable.  Luckily, yes he does have legs.  His gran, however, was paraplegic most her adult life, so we do know the constraints being disabled can have, especially in getting around town. 

 

Thanks for your concern though.

 

Glad everyone now knows what's happening in my life.

 

Do we reckon Naismith might start tonight?

[Rods]

In tune with the rest of the season its going to be either a turgid 1-0 win or a turgid 1-1

Thanks  had no idea it was an early kick off, so much ESL I almost forgot we had a game😄

[EIEIO]

We didn't play too badly in Greenock earlier in the season , comfortable 2-0 win. Morton have a new manager now though and will be fired up to avoid a relegation play off spot. 4-0 Hearts.

Being a fellow anxiety sufferer (fairly late onset, I don't know where it has come from), that's brilliant that he's going to Scouts. I appreciate that there are different types of anxieties that folk can have, but personally I find it difficult being around a lot of people and being in new, unusual surroundings, so if your son is similar then bravo to him for doing this. Bravo in any case, of course.

 

Not sure about Naismith's starting.

[martoon]

Hearts 0, half time.

 

Hearts 1, full time.

 

Predicted that on quite a few matchday threads because it's, well, so bloody predictable. 

 

6-0 v. Alloa was the blip result, sadly, of Robbie Neilson's 2021 Hearts.

Will miss the first half tonight as I have a training session with the U11's team I coach. To be fair I only go along to undermine my fellow coaches by changing all the drills they've set up.

If you have a promising looking striker, make sure you play him out of position

🤣🤣🤣...aye, and if you play with wingers, swap them at the half hour mark. NOBODY will see that coming. Master stroke!

Comfortable win for Robbie and the boys .

We've only been back 3 weeks and I've already told our 2 wingers that they were shite, and sent them packing to the Under 10's. Tonight's drill is slow monotonous build up play for 7 v 7. Looking forward to it.

My lad is coaching the U10 elite players.  Suspect the talent drains away by the time they reach U16.

Woyld like GMS to open his account. 

 

Walker to score from the bench, again.

The day is dragging on, people on here claim they aren't bothered or will miss it, Meaningless,.

I can't wait for the game to start, i miss watching the side play,

Staying positive while holding back the fear, ugly football better not appear on my screen tonight.

If that happens our Nobert will be getting his Jobbie hole booted.

I’m looking forward watching the game tonight, a home made curry and a glass of beer, just hope we give them a good hammering.

Apologies my last comment wasn't aimed at you specifically but in society in general. Appreciate everyone has their own circumstances. Sorry about your son's anxiety issues l can understand that as my daughter has the same issues. I hope he enjoys his scout experience anyway and wish him well.

 

As for Naismith l hope he doesn't play as he slows play down.

Walker is worth a punt to score anytime if he comes of the bench.  He makes a big difference in the last half hour.

We haven't been that enjoyable this season, but imagine no Hearts to watch over the last few months? 

Not many games are meaningless after how other clubs treated us.  

Go for the throat.

Quite right. When I was young we were so poor we couldn't afford legs. We had to do 22 hour shifts down pit and when we got home our father used to beat us with a stick and then we had to sleep in the middle of road.

Planet was fine then.

Huh! Your Dad had a stick? Bloody snobs and no mistake ba-tit!

Every game has been torture, even the ones we have been the far better side and took the 3 points. The meaningless comment was taken from a poster here, i am using it to push the fact we need to show intend in al games played from now on .

No game involving Hearts right now is meaningless, we have learned a lot over the last years, we desperately need a top class coaching set up with a 30 year vision for the  style of football we want to play. We have all the mod cons ,the luxuries i would trade for an attacking football side with smarts attitude and a fighting spirit to achieve succeed and dominate.

People in my family have witnessed Hearts win the double 1959-60, i hope dream pray that we can enjoy those heights again.

The way the club is right now is the best i have seen for all my years, the football played etc is honking. I will concede last week against Alloa is the correct way to play against sides who you should be beating comfortably, in no way does it excuse losing to them in a game we dominated and could of scored 6 , no we ended up losing to a crappy penalty. Ann Budge has turned Hearts into a sleeping giant.

We need to waken the **** up and let out a roar, take a few chunks.

Hearts are here.

Neilson is on a wee bit of a hiding to nothing here.  If we play really well in the next few games, fans will be asking how come we haven't been doing this all Season.  Play well and I'll still have something to moan at...

Still glad there's a game to watch tonight. 

 

[Deevers]

    No pressure on the players tonight - so absolutely no excuse for a crap performance.

[tian447]

2-1 win for us tonight.

 

Not much to play for, but we'll still have enough to get past them without trying too hard.  I fully expect us to go 1-0 down, and as a result I'll be having a fiver on "Hearts to win from behind" at 6/1 on Bet365.

[heartsfc_fan]

1-3 Hearts

Fed up with the unknown part, never know what team or style is going to play.

I have no faith in him at the moment, no idea what we are all about or what is going to happen in the near future.

Not the feeling i was expecting before this season started, i thought win this batter every side in the league and give the cups a shot.

We achieved the Championship aim, i appreciate it was difficult for everyone to watch. The cup semi final against Hibs was dynamite bar one piece losing Big Zal, losing the way we did against Celtic was a tough one, we were at them in parts and maybe should of finished them off in the penalties. Was a bonus day. Aw well to that.

Problems became apparent when we suddenly began to shite our pants against the teams in the league, was like we were courtesy calling them offering a free hit at us.

Thicko befriends Rolly Polly and they instantly hit it off, so much that thicko decides to be a gentleman and a great sport ' Oh no you take the ball, on ye go have a few shots' Aw such a nice club, they deserve respect. Aye right then. Mental cases.
