Total shambles that was If the players can stay fit we will get more out of them, its been a very long season already, they looked ok in the 2nd half against St Johnstone, Celtic are light years ahead of us, Parkhead was largely good, Tynecastle largely disappointing. Back to the teams we should beat the next 6 weeks Anyhow Most experience available I imagine tomorrow and a bit of midfield protection Clark Hill Rowles Kingsley Smith Kio Snodgrass Grant Cochrane Shankland Ginnelly Like the setup of your side and the fact we actually have a midfield. Would be amazed if Sibbick doesn't start, was arguably our best outfield player last Saturday. Edited March 17, 2023 by Luckies1874 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really like him as a player but no good to us if he's gonna be out every few weeks. Plenty football still to be played though so see how he gets on but one more injury and I'm not sure it's worth risking the money on. Some players are just constitutionely fragile, and never reach their full potential because they never get a run of games to put 100% form together. Over the years we have signed quite a few players who are like this and to be frank end up being terrible value for money when you factor in actual games played/form/expense..........sorry to say but from a business point of view he should not be signed.

Yeah, I'm not sure he was too bad with niggling injuries before us though. I know he had a really bad cheekbone and eye socket fracture at Southend which kept him out for a bit and it's a freak accident but other than that I don't think he's had much of an injury history. That's why I'd like to see how he fares between now and the end of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah perhaps the smallest of margins better than others. Kio is growing on me btw, written off by many but I can see improvement in every game.

I just can't get past the thought that if we keep Gino, Humps, and Boyce, they get back to full health, and we don't otherwise lose Shanks and Yoda, we'll go into the summer window with the striker corps completely set and settled for the first time in my memory of following Hearts.

Just had a read through the thread and don't see many saying it's a must win. Where are all these posts? In fact there are more people suggesting they expect us to lose never mind hoping we win. It's a must not lose game. A win would be a brilliant result but a draw is far from a disaster. I think I know who likes creating a bit of drama where it doesn't exist!

A loss brings in squeakier bum time and a draw is an as we were with one game less for others to catch us. Exactly. A win tomorrow kills off Aberdeen and in all likelihood Hibs too given their fixture. So if RN and the squad want to make it easier on themselves then they should go all out and get it done with a big performance tomorrow. A draw will see us retain the substantial advantage we have given our home record with Tynecastle games to come. A loss won't change the fact we are favourites to finish 3rd but for sure it does give hope to the others and will make the trip to Easter Road far more important. Equally games post split against both them and Aberdeen. A loss raises the pressure on RN considerably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
