We will continue to closely monitor the situation throughout the day. Supporters making the journey to Tynecastle Park should allow extra time for travel and closely follow the advice of the Scottish Government and Transport Scotland. Please note that Scotrail has suspended its services from 7pm this evening. So follow the advice of transport Scotland and don’t travel unless absolutely necessary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fabienleclerq Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 7 minutes ago, soonbe110 said: So only one game for Gordon in next two months? I doubt that. If that was the plan he would have asked to go out on loan. Will never be fully match fit at that rate. Would you expect Gordon to be dropped to accommodate games for Clark? Clark has taken his opportunity imo and deserves to keep it just now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bungalow Bill Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Anyone saying Zander hasn’t put a foot wrong are incorrect. At least 2 games this season he made mistakes which have cost us. He’s not made a mistake since CG has been back though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swanny17 Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 In the whole Gordon v Clarke debate, we should play our best players in every position, simple as that. Vargas has done okay recently, but we’d never dream of keeping Shanks out of the team after injury just because his replacement has done okay.

Dalry Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Gordon should 100% play as he is the better keeper, bottom line. Doesn’t matter how well Clark has been playing, Gordon is better and should start tonight. One positive with the weather is that it is really mild, not cold at all. three points are essential tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She built up tens of thousands of tickets, and didn’t pay them, as she thought they copied not be enforced. The judge said to her, she made the mistake of believing Internet lawyers. She had to pay all the penalties. An extreme example, but shows it enforceable, if the company think it is worth it. Plus she admitted it was her driving the car.

Huge error on her part! I think in England they can just go after the owner of the car but in Scotland it has to be the driver - and you don’t have to tell them who was driving. My wife got away with one of these by writing to them and saying she didn’t know who was driving / wouldn’t tell them and they wrote back and confirmed they wouldn’t be taking it further.

She should have said she owns the car but she was not going to divulge the name of the person who was driving the car at the time of alleged offence, Under the current laws (Scotland only) you do not have to give details of who was driving your car. Note, to fall in line with the rest of the UK this is going to change later this year when you can be forced to divulge the person's name (or you you will automatically as owner become liable). Also, this only applies to Private Parking and not council owned/managed parking.

MattyK82 Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Massive game. A chance to go; 8 ahead of Killie 10 ahead of St Mirren Having played the same amount of matches. Potentially, also the chance to go; 14 ahead of Hibs (they would have 2 games in hand starting with Rangers at ER tomorrow) 17 ahead of Dundee (who would have 3 games in hand) 17 ahead of Aberdeen (who would have 4 games in hand - we of course play them at home on Sat). So a game we really need to be winning if we are serious about securing 3rd again. Only 4 wins at home this season and 7 away. Need to make it 6 at home by the close of play on Saturday. 🇱🇻🇱🇻 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We really need to get back to winning home matches. Another blip and failing to build on our lead would be criminal. We've got the chance to break the back of the race for 3rd. Grab it ffs.

The only reasoning behind starting Zander Clark over Craig Gordon is because he’s done nothing wrong. That doesn’t sit right with me. Not when 3rd place could be worth £6/7m and we lost out last season by 3 points. The difference in ability between Gordon and Clark could be the difference between 3rd and 4th.
