In all seriousness it boggles my mind people moaning about having to play boyce despite scoring 15 goals last season The stuff on Boyce is merited though. He could have easily had 20+ this season but his complacency and decision making when provided glaring chances was very frustrating however he still has a place in this team and we are better with him in it. It’s not panic stations as we have a recognised goal scorer and have added quality up too and in midfield. But another striker is needed for numbers at least Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great post which succinctly sums it up. 👍 I like a wee 'highbrow' post, so I do. As lifted from elsewhere (with my additions in [ ]s):- "When the line "fair is foul and foul is fair" is used today, it is often used in reference to someone who appears good, trustworthy, and genuine [Scottish Referees]; but who is not - looks can be deceiving. This idea is often repeated in reference to public figures, such as politicians, who have a public persona that does not match who they really are [Again, Scottish Referees; oh, and line refs also]." Every club outwith the so-called OF have similar tales to tell, but witnessing a not given offside call at Tynie v The Rangers when we caught them cold on an offside trap with 3 of their players clearly off-side, and that one where the rules were made up on the spot to stop play when the opposing player fell over (nae head knock) whilst we had clear advantage?

DC_92 Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 (edited) Only getting a fixed 6 figure fee for Hickey according to Barry Anderson, which confirms that rumour. "The Tynecastle club’s sporting director Joe Savage confirmed to this newspaper in May that the Hickey deal stipulates Bologna must forward a certain portion from any future sale. The Evening News has learned that amount is a pre-agreed six-figure sum which will now be wired to Hearts’ bank account." Whoever agreed that needs fired into the sun.

Dundee Utd since Beerschot owe them £500k still can effectively offer a lesser fee (if any at all) and just need to compete with us on wages. Simms, wage wise and transfer fee wise too much. If not Shankland, and if not Simms, who else could we go for? Paterson keeps coming to mind, but appreciate folk think he's regressed and isn't the player of 2015 anymore.
