Tynecastle Valhalla Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 That's a proper good away win that. Against a stuffy physical Livi side on a plastic pitch. Well done Hearts. Makes me really annoyed about the ridiculous Rangers penalty at ibrox which robbed us and then also the no pen given against county on forrest as it could have been even better for us. SFA dont like us. Great result before the Winter Break. Aberdeen are our clear rivals for 3rd and have three games in hand, but we have points on the board. Must hang on to Shankland.

1953 Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 It wasn't pretty but a win's a win, especially on that pitch. Favourable results elsewhere and we're going into the winter break 5 points clear with a game in hand. I'll take that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luckies1874 Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 We are in a tremendous position for 3rd given our run over the last few weeks and the other's all cutting each other's throats. Wins v Dundee and Aberdeen at home and the former away (our next 3 league matches), once we recommence would push us further clear considering the other fixtures eg Hibs v Rangers, St Mirren v Rangers, Killie v Hibs, Aberdeen v Celtic and Rangers v Aberdeen, are all in that period.

Looks like Vargas and Forrest are shutting up the boo boys too. Think Haring has just played himself back into the team for the foreseeable. Nieuwenhoff isn't a player I'm enjoying watching, hopefully we can get someone in ready to play every week - worth remembering he's only 22, so time very much on his side.

pettigrewsstylist Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 Decent win. Decent 2nd half. Vargas, Forrest showed well. Haring did not let us down and for first game in 3.5 mths. Clark played his part. Kingsley worked his socks off. Toby Sibbick is not a RB or RWB. League table looks great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tiger Rudi Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 5 minutes ago, Bongo 1874 said: Back 3 killing us all game. Any time we got width we caused problems 433 or 4231 for me. Well done Toby,Forrest, Denholm. For me it was Cochrane playing a bit wider and further forward that made a difference 2nd half. How many starts has Toby had? Need to accept he was rusty. Great display from Forrest. He's ahead of Oda every game for me. Disappointed Naisy thinks all we need is a rb and a forward. Midfield/10: definitely need an attack-minded player in there to freshen things up. Mentioned him loads before, but Dan Kemp's stats in League 2 are outstanding. Could he make the leap to this level? Probably, he's an England under 20 international and a product of West Ham. Yan Dhanda maybe a more proven target. Great win, another away win and sitting pretty in 3rd. We still need to improve though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoiK Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 Better result than performance, but that pitch isn’t one for silky football. Hugely disjointed performance for the first 30 minutes, and not for the first time in recent matches. But two very good goals in the second half. Impressed by Vargas today. He might do even better if our upfield hoofs out of defence weren’t so often over-hit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tazio Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 2 minutes ago, John Findlay said: Their pitch is without doubt a leveller, so to me any win at Livingston is a good win. Well done Hearts, well deserved. Now that Kilmarnock have said they are going back to a turf pitch Livi should follow suit. It gives the home team an advantage (not that it’s helped them this season) in terms of playing on a surface that the other teams rarely play on. You can see that the ball behaves differently on the bounce rolls differently to a grass pitch. All of those things amplified when the pitch is wet. I’d like to see the figures of how much that pitch actually makes them outside match days as that’s always quoted as one of the reasons for having it.

SM Sheffield Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 Important 3 points and a potential banana skin avoided. I am pleased for Forrest too who was my MOTM he has been decent for the last few games. Constant energy and running from him and 2 assists to cap a good display. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
