***Official Heart of Midlothian v H1b5 Match Day Thread***

[All roads lead to Gorgie]

Awful tactics at the end. We have good players going forward but defend

[ri Alban]

Celebrating a draw at home.

[dazajmbo]

Sibick was on his knees commited to block Boyle before he even knew where he was. Should have stayed on the bench. Had a feeling as soon as he came on the game wasnt done. Wasted 4 throw in's in injury time before that too.

[Салатные палочки]

They'll celebrate that long into next week. We should have been well out of sight though. 

[Jamhammer]

Every Substitution a negative one

but we should have been out of fn sight first 10 minutes of second half

Threw it away

 

 

[indianajones]

They have the most pathetic fans in all of Scotland.

That was predictable. 

No it wasn’t. They got got lucky again. Have to stay switched on for 95 mins

****. Was coming. Sat back from from far too early. 

 

Never in the game after the formation change. 

This - simply invited them on to us for the last 20 - was inevitable that they would eventually create a decent chance.

[Australis]

Why the hell did we start sitting off them and inviting them onto us?

 

The spoon burners were offering nothing and we gave the pitch up to them.

 

[John Findlay]

They are lucky *******s. We should have been out of sight. Barrie MacKay should have scored. All that Rocky Bashiri did the whole game was foul Shankland, and Beaton let him away with it. Two points dropped today. So bloody frustrating.

[Jambo na hÉireann]

****. Right. Off. 

[Kiwidoug]

Disappointing.  Not the ebd of the world.

 

7 in a row.

Typical reaction from some. Quite simply if Sibbick follows his man we win that game.

A result that the performance deserved really.

A sure as a big shite 

 

Defending a one goal lead against a team that looked clueless,  sitting far too deep inviting them . Their centre halves looked so vulnerable yet we hardly attacked. 

 

[Marvin]

2 points dropped and to that shower.

[Chizmeister]

Sibbick caught wandering

 

[Carter]

Not good enough. We were inviting that to happen. 

[Cade]

We're raging at that draw.

 

They'll be delighted.

 

 

[151]

Take it they celebrated it like a champions league win? 

 

 

[Don Dan]

We came out at half-time and we’re on top then……Snoreson goes all defensive 🤷🏼‍♂️

[1874robbo]

Neilson bottled it

Criminal defending. 

Criminal change of formation.

 

That's a game we should have won easily.  We were pish and still by far the better team until we switched to a 3

[Swanny17]

Shite. By far the better team but blew it. 

[Batistuta87]

We're raging with a draw and they're celebrating like it's a win.

 

Wee team mentality.

 

[Aussie Jambo]

Ducking joke. Last 15 minutes we let them attack us. ****ing should have beat them easy. 

[jim747]

I'll never understand why we fail to go for the jugular.

[Debut 4]

I Must have bogied it.  
 

I just said to my mate on 92 mins our performance can look like we’ve controlled it to a 1-0, or if they nick a goal, it suddenly looks like we’ve sat back and not went for the kill….

 

The latter.  Twice in a week Neilson has taken attacking impetus away and we’ve conceded. 

 

 

 

 

[Masonic]

natty atkinson is not a football player should be added to the dictionary

 

should have pumped them barry wasnt clinical enough with his finishing unfortunately but it was a great ball for the first goal

 

grant should not be on corners he grew into the game gradually but hope to see much better

A team that is nothing better than most junior sides. It's embarrasing really.

[edramone]

Kicked in the teeth again. How can these players not be capable of seeing out the final minutes? Do they never learn?

 

[Morgan]

What would these arseholes be like if they had won?

 

 

[JudyJudyJudy]

Disgraceful really. Fecking annoyed. 

[The Mighty Thor]

Money spinning replay but 👍

[Rudolph]

Sibbick and Rowles selling the jerseys. Pathetic.

[Kxf51]

Absolute nap, why where we sitting back against that shite, handed that on a plate, 

[briever]

I look forward to the Neilson fanbois telling us about that second half sub and tactical masterclass.

Shouldn’t have been on the pitch 

He had a good game and a half when Stendel was here and has been atrocious since he returned.

Never a defender

[gator]

Horrendous marking in the last few minutes, they should have scored just before that on a free header, this feels like a loss but at the end of the day it keeps our unbeaten run at ER going, we should have finished this one off!

[No Idle Talk]

Disgusting. That feels like a defeat. 

 

**** off.

[Bozi]

Nobody to blame but ourselves, were streets ahead of Hibs the whole game but didn't kill it off

[Mdoug79]

That’s on Neilson today. Normally back home but I couldn’t belive the amount of defensive changes we were making. The back 4 were barely troubled other than cadden. 

[indianajones]

Massive gulf between us. They are stinking. 

[mitch41]

As soon as Halliday comes on you should know we're going to lose a goal. Why does Neilson continue with putting on the slowed player in Scotland. Packing the defence inviting Hibs to attack is all about Neilson. We have better players than Hibs but he can be so negative reverting back to 3 at the back.

Sibbick, not Neilson.

Both IMO Morgan

Robbie out him on and changed the system and Sibbick was poorly positioned 

 

[Mr Elwood P]

All the idiots out in force now. Neilson MKII still undefeated in the Edinburgh Derby. 

[...andFulton'sBaggio]

Terrible defending from Sibbick. Caught ball watching at the front post. Should never have come to that though, totally switched off in the middle of the park.

 

Should've been out of sight early in the second half. You've gotta blame the players who missed chances too!

 

Sickening.

[NLTFTh]

Why did we sit back? 

 

1 point is better than 0.

 

Move on.. 

 

FTh. 

[tiger Rudi]

****ing gutted!!! We had that game by the baws & threw it! 

Haring, Halkett, McKay, Boyce, Cochrane & of course Craig don't deserve to lose tbh. Hey guys before this thread goes into meltdown, we bossed that game in their own backyard. **** them!! This is gonna be a fekn great season!! 

[Fozzyonthefence]

Shite game of football but we managed the 2nd half very comfortably until a cluster**** in stoppage time.  Should’ve got a 2nd goal but didn’t and pair for it. The performance from us in the 5 minutes of stoppage time was brutal and they could easily have scored 3 in that period alone.
