Bauld Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 Our only hope for third is to hammer the vermin. If we took a draw from this it would really put pressure on the sheep going into the final weekend. Anything from this would be a bonus though. Momentum going into the hibs game.

jack D and coke Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 Probably not. Much more interested to see how Naismith sets us up tbh. Not the usual Levein/Neilson mess our shorts before a ball is kicked will be a significant improvement for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rmreido Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 Hope Naismith sets us up, to really have a go, nothing to lose. Hoping Gino is ok for this match, having been taken off injured today, his pace upfront is key, to us having any chance of points, its a big ask, but.....

liam11 Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 Must, MUST avoid a humping, the goal difference could be absolutely key here, especially if we lose and St Mirren and Aberdeen draw.

No matter what happens we need the sheep to drop points. Keeping the dream alive is hoping that we get to the last day still in with a chance. We can lose against Rangers and still have a chance provided Aberdeen drop points which we are now fully reliant on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not pinning our hopes on Aberdeen blowing a £5million game at home to St Mirren. Beating Rangers is the only way to make sure we take it to the last day. Also depends if St Mirren still have Europe to go for. I note they are winning at Celtic which doesn’t bode well for their (Celtics) attitude on the last day Still quite a lot to happen and we’ve given ourselves a sniff.

Absolute Scenes Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 Have we ever went into an old firm game with a “must-win” mentality? I don’t mean “let’s go in there and treat it like a must-win” I mean an actual game we need to win, or at least not lose? I wonder if that will help the team to turn up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Win on the other hand changes absolutely everything. The current goal difference gap is 8 (+6 for us and -2 for them). If we lose against Rangers, the only way we can catch Aberdeen is if they get a maximum of 1 point from their remaining two games, so one loss means their goal difference will go down by at least one. We would also need to beat hibs, meaning our goal difference increases by at least one. For tie-breaker purposes, we've also scored more than Aberdeen. Taking all of that into account, we'd need Rangers to beat us by 11 goals for it to stop us having superior goal difference against Aberdeen and for that to matter. That said, we're going to beat Rangers anyway so the above is purely academical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott980612 Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 Positive attitude all week at training required , that hearts can go there and get a result. Long over due a performance at Ibrox - no reason why we can’t go and give them a go. However likely scenarios based on probability - hearts concede early - dodgy referee decision that will influence the game - hope I’m wrong Come on hearts!!

Bazzas right boot Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 (edited) Ibrox will be half empty, they'll play a few squad players with other players having an eye on next season.

Toby and Kai together give me the fear. I don’t want soapy rubbing our noses in it but he’ll be desperate to get one over us. I’d be happy with a point as I think a victory is far too much of a grasp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gregzy2k7 Posted May 21, 2023 Share Posted May 21, 2023 Our record there is appalling. Unfortunately can't see us taking anything, Just got to hope the Midden can take something up at the Sheep Pen. Prediction is 2-0 defeat for us And a 0-0 draw at pittodrie We would then be 3 points behind with an outside chance of 3rd in that scenario, providing we win the derby and celtic don't let their troosers fall down in the final game.

And the only scenario where a draw is any better than a defeat here is if Aberdeen draw with St Mirren and Celtic and we beat Hibs (we would finish ahead on goal difference). We can't bank on St Mirren getting something at Pittodrie so this has to be viewed as a must-win game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gorgie_Rules Posted May 21, 2023 Share Posted May 21, 2023 As good a chance as we’ve had in a while but they’ll still be too strong.

FJT Posted May 21, 2023 Share Posted May 21, 2023 Can’t see us taking points there but you never know. How I’d love to be wrong. Naismith I think will at least set us up to give it our best shot. as others have said defence is my concern. We miss Halkett and need to strengthen there in the summer.
