CJGJ Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 We have lost the last 2 home league matches against them and won the last 2 away It does suggest that home advantage is just not quite as certain as you might think I'm glad away fans are present and that this will be reciprocated in the future We've had a good start to the season but so have they and despite all the bravado we can display they will not be short of confidence For us we have players to bed in and need to come to a more clear decision regarding our 'first 11' and style of play........we just don't know how good players like McKay, Devlin, Moore, Woodburn are or will be this season in addition some of the squad have not played with us long enough to clearly decide one way or another. All clubs will have similar predicaments I'm sure given the limited number of matches played Looking at the squad I think we need a couple of the new signings to come good to improve the first 11 and that is the unknown factor at this time but today will be a good test of where we stand......have we signed a couple of footballing diamonds or just another couple of pencils ? I'll always back us at home despite it not being a recent fortress in the top division and the same today but I doubt it will be a clear cut victory, no one will care if victory is achieved.

Who’s that going down in the box Is it a diver? Is it a diver? Too “What’s that coming over the hill” by The Automatic. This should be be one of the first songs today. Let do it before he attempts it rather than leaving it till it’s too late. We should be aiming to influence the ref and use our home advantage. It might even catch on at other grounds so he can’t get away with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gizmo Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 45 minutes ago, jambonian said: So, game today....can't even predict how it'll go, not because Hibs are great but pace will be the difference in this one. If Boyle plays we could be in trouble down our left side. No doubt we'll be playing a fullback as a left-sided centre-half yet again so this could be the difference in them getting anything or not. Our weakest side in the team, their strongest. It'll be all down to how Neilson sets the team up. If he goes defensive and have the usual side-to-side passy stuff we're walking straight into their hands. If we attack, the movement of others will be the difference. Without looking at his record against them, i think Neilson has only beaten them twice, both games when they missed penalties. The 2014 first game of the season we won 2-1 and Liam Craig missed one, and the semi last season at Hampden when Nisbet missed his. Had he scored we may not have got a penalty up the other end. Heart says Hearts win, head says draw. Hard to predict. I'll record the game and watch it this afternoon (or not) once i know the score. I'm predicting that our crossing game will rip the arse out of their dreadful defence and it will be about us taking some of those chances. Let's not get caught up worrying about them - they'll do their usual long diagonals over the top to try to release Boyle. Nothing new from a bunch of long ball merchants.

That is what they have done for the past few years now, hit the corners with big punts and hope for the best. In saying that we need to be careful it doesn't catch us out, in the past few seasons all teams had to do was sit in and punt it over the top and we'd **** it up somehow. The good football thing is the biggest myth outside rangers being the same club currently in world football. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CJGJ Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 Just before I leave I'd like to also mention an important factor Discipline....not only personal in such as highly charged atmosphere but also tactically as set out by the management team There are a few 'first time' derby debutants in our side and lets hope the Craig Gordon's, Michael Smith's etc take charge and remind them acting the hard man will not bring success..............I hate when players are applauded from the park after an act of stupidity which leads to a sending off. Many a derby is won or lost just because an individual wants to demonstrate he 'cares' to the fans when I'd rather they gave their all using their footballing brain/physical effort and showed us that side of them.....that is caring to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
