Ribble Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 On 31/07/2021 at 12:14, Footballfirst said: Kemp was one of 3 Hutchie trialists who were brought in, but the other two appear to have been released. Sandilands has come in from Rangers and appears worth signing for his goal scoring if nothing else. Devlin came from Celtic along with Spence who has also played in the last week or so. Forrester, also from Rangers, appears to have been released as he has not appeared in recent games. Just announced that he's signed a pro contract Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Footballfirst Posted September 17, 2021 Author Share Posted September 17, 2021 The U18s got humped 4-2 by Dundee Utd at Riccarton this afternoon. After dominating the first half and passing up on at least three gilt edged chances, Hearts conceded the opening goal in the last minute. It looked as if a half time talking to by Rankin and Naismith had done its job when Ewan Simpson equalised two minutes into the second half. However it was not to be as United hit back almost immediately with a couple of goals of their own. A fourth goal late on from the penalty spot confirmed their deserved win, although Max Williamson grabbed a consolation goal in stoppage time. It was a poor performance all round. The forwards spurned great chances or were reluctant to shoot, while the whole defence had a bit of a mare with a series of individual mistakes, slips and losing possession unnecessarily. McFarlane Rathie Flatman Forrester Hambrook Thomas Gordon Simpson Tait Kirk Sandilands Subs used: McLuckie Williamson, Kemp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Footballfirst Posted October 2, 2021 Author Share Posted October 2, 2021 I was at the academy this morning for the U13 and U15s games against Rangers. I chose to watch the U15s (mainly because I could get a seat under cover). I think I chose the wrong game. The U13s game went 1-0, 2-0, 3-0 (Jayden Mathie hat trick), then a raft of substitutions, 3-1, 3-2, 3-3, 4-3, 4-4, before Hearts got a late winner to finish 5-4. The U15s game was a bit less entertaining, in fact it wasn't the greatest game to watch with few chances. Hearts lost 1-2, but the game had a bizarre ending. Rangers should have had a man sent off early on for a wild lunge, but the ref only showed a yellow. He also gave Hearts a soft penalty which looked like a good challenge with no-one appealing for it, but that was the least of his mistakes. 36 minutes into the second half, and without warning, the ref checked his watch and blew for full time. Needless to say this caused a bit of consternation among the spectators (mainly parents and scouts) and the coaching staff of both sides. The coaches spoke to the referee to point out his mistake, but he refused to restart the game. After a delay of 6 or 7 minutes, it led to the bizarre spectacle of the referee walking off around the pitch while the teams agreed to restart the game, but with no referee. I do hope that both clubs report the referee. I won't name him, but he's the worst I have seen in years at any level of football. I've seen him referee a few times now and he causes controversy at every game. After a game full of refereeing errors, there was a full scale riot in the last minute of an U20 game I watched a couple of weeks ago involving all the players, and coaching staff from both sides. It started with a bit of pushing and ended up with punches thrown. The result was two yellow cards, and over 8 minutes stoppage time. It was 6-0 at the time. If he had any sense he would have blown for full time right on the 90 minute mark. In another Hearts U13 game this season he sent off two Hearts players for dissent, before failing to send off a goalkeeper who made a full length diving save to push away a goal bound shot. The only problem was that the keeper was 5 yards outside his box when he made the save. The ref saw it as he gave a free kick, but no red card.

Footballfirst Posted October 17, 2021 Author Share Posted October 17, 2021 Hearts U16s/U17s are playing round robin matches against Manchester United and Dundee United at the Oriam this morning. The games are 25 minutes each way. Hearts lost 0-2 against Manchester United in the first game. However the goals they lost were soft. Hearts also hit the post three times, so we're a bit unlucky not to take something from the game. Hearts lineup Paris Beagley Forrester Smutek (Anderson) Nair Crookson Chisholm Spence Sandilands McLuckie Ross (Wilson). Dundee United v Manchester United is just about to start.
