I was expecting a 2-1 maybe 3-1 beating.  But we really shouldn’t be getting beaten 5-0 FFS.  Who else have they beaten by that margin this season?

The highest position we can reasonably expect to finish in is third. If we finish third we’ve had a good league campaign. That’s it in a nutshell. Lose to Hibs, beat Celtic, lose to Rangers, beat Aberdeen along the way? As long as we finish third that’s a success. 
 

As for mentality?  I’m just another bam on kickback mate. I’m not a coach or a player so my mentality doesn’t affect anything. 

 

This pretty much sums up my view, especially the bit in bold.

Thousands of Hearts fans left Hampden before an hour was played in the League Cup Semi Final. A similarly abject performance against them. I made a remark about the space and freedom we allow Tavernier. Some guy said he'd be our best player. We've seen several times at Tynecastle that he's horrendous defensively when put under it. His performance in the Scottish Cup Final against Hibs was ****ing horrendous. We give him the freedom of the park every single time. See 0-1 at Tynecastle meek surrender earlier this season. 

 

We'll probably get past Morton and assuming the uglies get kept apart we'll get either of them in a potential semi final. Not seeing anything other than more of the same in such a scenario. 

 

I'm sure the 98 Scottish Cup Final would be seen as a "free hit" nowadays by sections of the support. When in reality we'd been getting closer in H2H and we simply couldn't keep getting beat on those occasions. Too many fans are now far too conditioned to losing to them.

Yep we play an awful game and it's the fans fault for expecting basic effort and some semblance of competence.

Some on here must have an arse like a party streamer the way they automatically assume the position when Huey or duey rock up.

There is far too much unrealistic expectation given the massive financial gulf and an odd tendency to totally downplay the opposition. How many other teams who topped a Europa league group do you think Hearts should be competitive with?

 

West Ham

Brighton

Atalanta

Liverpool

Villareal

Slavia Prague

Bayer Leverkusen

 

Should be giving all of them a good game? Any of them? Just Rangers?

 

So what's the argument now? They're not Liverpool? Definitely not but the relative financial gap between them and Liverpool is nothing like as great as that between both OF and Hearts.

Scottish teams playing them is akin to them playing Liverpool, and I doubt any of you would be giving them any chance at all, with good reason. And you wouldn't see their fans trying to play down the challenge with the type of comments I saw here before this game. 

 

"They're not that good"

 

Yes they are, they're Europa group winners good and that's aside from having the best defence in the SPL and are the highest scorers in the league. What are everybody else if they're not that good? Who else in Scotland outside the OF can even qualify for a group through playoffs far less win one? For years nobody but them. 

 

The under estimation also covers their individual multi million pound players. "he's shite" you will often see and these shite multi million pound players are all over their team. Tavernier can't defend, yet they have the best defence in the league. If he can't defend well it looks like he doesn't need to even bother.

 

They might be shite in comparison to Liverpool but in Scotland OF players are typically as good as it gets in every position. Another argument is well other teams sometimes get some points from them, and don't get gubbed so heavily. Make them work harder.

 

While that's true you can be absolutely guaranteed these teams are not outplaying them, they're parking the bus hoping to keep them out and catch something on the break, and sometimes they will get lucky.

That's actually what i think the strategy should be for everybody, but that too would get the management and players criticised for not "having a go" in their vision of it. But against sides like this having a go is exactly what can get you a thumping.

The players didn't play badly, they were simply massively outclassed and that never looks good. Did you see Liverpool humping Rangers in the CL? Rangers were shite. Or alternatively massively outclassed.

 

This Hearts team is still easily good enough to take 3rd place at a canter, that's the next level, not the unbridgeable chasm to the OF. The next level is cementing such a gap between 3rd and 4th, and even that wont be easy.

[JFK-1]

One more thing to consider. People hark back to the game at Ibrox in October when they needed 2 late goals to win 2-1 as having been more competitive. Certainly it is in terms of the scoreline but not when you compare the statistics to that game and this one.

Stats from October

 

Possession Rangers 69% - Hearts 31%

Shots at goal Rangers 28 - Hearts 5

Shots on target Rangers 5 - Hearts 1

Corners Rangers 11 - Hearts 2

 

Compare that with the latest game

 

Possession Rangers 53% - Hearts 47%

Shots at goal Rangers 17 - Hearts 11

Shots on target Rangers 12 Hearts 5

Corners Rangers 4 - Hearts 2

Do you go to the games?? If so, did you expect that result and performance after what you've watched the last few months?? 

 

For me, I don't think fans being disappointed about yesterday's result and performance is anything to do with being unrealistic. It's more expecting a better result and performance on the back of a good winning run. I thought we were really poor yesterday and didn't expect us to be beaten so easily and to put in such a poor performance. We are capable of far more than we produced yesterday and that's what is disappointing. 

 

I hoped we could have got a result yesterday but also realistic in that we were up against a team with a far bigger budget than us.

[Bazzas right boot]

Some can't be Hearts fans.

They don't post or appear on here until we get beat, then post all their shite.

Others just seem to get a bit emotional.

 

5-0 is shite, we got our arses handed to us.

We move on.

 

Posters saying it's shocking and unacceptable,  assassinating every player etc?

What do they expect , Hearts to Sack Naismith for an " unacceptable" result and release players who played shite?

 

The truth is our players aren't as good as Rangers or Celtic,  best we can do is give them a bloody nose now and then and make sure we finish 3rd- and continue to do that.

 

The next level chat etc is just a bit daft and sets folk up for a bitter disappointment and send some into a rage.

You are half right! Celtic are the weak link they have lost games and had draws against more others than Rangers. Somehow their record against Rangers is better. We also came up against a Rangers side that just overtook Celtic last week coming back from 8 points deficit to lead by 5 now. Unfortunately Rangers played their A game at home. We didn’t manage our A game but would have still lost. 
lets get on with business on Wednesday against a Hibs team who are already crowing because they beat Dundee.

As others have said don’t think other teams have taken that sort of hammering from rangers this season and then you start to ask the question why can’t we compete better as apparently the 3rd placed team

I'm sorry but this is garbage. Even in 97/98 with a genuinely title challenging team we had been hammered 5-2 and 3-0 at home to Rangers. The second of those coming just a few weeks before the final. We'd taken 1 point from our four league games against them. 

 

Yes, we'd lost the league cup final 4-3 the season before despite a great performance, but the the season before that we had been thrashed 5-1 in the Scottish Cup final at Hampden.

 

The idea that we are more conditioned to losing to Rangers now than we were at the end of their 9 in a row period when we hadn't won a trophy for 36 years is some re-writing of history.

 

This season we have competed well in some games against Rangers and been heavily beaten in other games. Much as it was back then.

 

On the main point of the thread, while I'm amused how easily our fans get carried away and start talking about challenging for the title next season, I generally take the view that if football fans can't get carried away, who can. But the flip side is those fans seem to get so carried away that when a set back comes, they lose all sense of reality in the other direction. We go from challenging for the league to needing to bin half the team, get rid of the DoF and discussing whether our players lie down against Rangers because they support them. It is such an overreaction.

Rangers were phenomenal. We were very poor. But... We have been great. We're just no good enough. Their players are more agile, quicker reaction times, stronger, faster. Performances in Glasgow are definitely something we need to work hard on. We need to play a different way where we can have control and defend better as a unit.

[jock _turd]

Agreed we have been on a great run and yesterday started the game poorly losing a very early goal  and just as we are getting back into the game lose another. Football is not a black and white game, games turn completely on the slightest of mistakes and that second goal was the straw that done our camels back. I will be worried if SN does not illicit a reaction from the boys for Wednesday but hey I will take losing one game out of twelve to the current best team in the league... current thats unintendedly funny 😂😂

Nothing much has changed though.  We're still odds-on to finish in 3rd place, which is as much as we expected at the beginning of the season.

 

Let's hope that our players, coaches, and manager learned a lesson from the experience.

Checked London Hearts, we lost by 5 to Rangers in 2019 and 2022 (the Feb 3mo beforre their Europa Final). 

 

Before that the last time we lost by a five gioal margin (to Rangers) was at Ibrox in the SC quarters in March 1980, while we were in the 1st Dividion, we lost 6-1 that day.

 

Us on a run, the geenral state of thr players playing for the OF this season (they're really not hat good, good enough to with the league of course) should have made for a resonably competitive game.  We shat it, without Rangers having to really get out of 2nd gear.

 

Yesterday was the fourth time in 44 years, and that's us on the back of a 28/30pts run to a team with boys playing that hardly any of us have heard of. Didn't even need the officials.

Not sure if people were expecting to win yesterday. I suspect most were hoping we would compete given the form in which we've had approaching the game. The concession of a goal inside opening 10 mins of these games is a recurring theme. I don't believe this is something that can be levelled at Kilmarnock under McInnes against the uglies. I appreciate it's hard to legislate for such abysmal individual errors. But experience tells us that setting up against Rangers with a back 3 is begging for problems. Is it an organisation issue as well as a budget gulf? 

 

We shouldn't be losing 5-0 to anyone in this league. Happened at Ibrox far too frequently to be dismissed as an isolated incident.

Hollier than thou threads sneering at other fans for being upset/frustrated are just a bit wank. I think its good up to a point that there is anger after a loss. Players should feel that and hopefully it will spur them on to keep improviing and making those moments few and far between. 

 

Nobody IMO is annoyed we went to Ibrox and lost, they're annoyed that senior players very clearly didn't turn up. We have internationals and a very good level of experience throughout this team. Rangers and Celtic can absolutely still beat us, but those games should still be competitive affairs, not 5 zip drubbings.

I dont disagree. Saying shite like “Naismith should go” etc. is just a nonsense given its our first defeat this year. 
Folk are allowed to be angry with that performance and perhaps some should type what they want…then delete it before posting. Get the anger off your chest then move on. Hearts will be back to winning ways on Wendesday. 
 

Hearts were pish yesterday but its not my first rodeo in that respect. 

 

If you don't disagree, why did you post what you did? It seemed to be having a go at the OP (even though his comments were accurate). Correct me if I am wrong though.

 

Of course folk are entitled to be angry, but some of the rubbish that was being trotted out was bang out of line and incorrect - which was the point the OP was making.

 

Yeah, it's important we get back to winning ways on Wednesday.

Not demanding anyone to be sacked,

 

but just calling it out as it happened, 

 

We were fecking awful btw,

 

Rangers were ok, not superb, in fact, nowhere near it, They didn't have to be, as we were awful.

 

That's the major frustration for me, almost all of their goals were cheap goals to lose from our point of view imo.

 

We shat it big time.

 

It's done though so nothing we can do now, 

 

Just got to go out and beat hibs.

 

Rangers were not superb? Did you miss nearly every pundit and their own manager saying that was their best performance by far this season?

Aussies must go 
Savage must go and Naismith must go 
What are these idiots on 
The gulf between us and old firm is the same as Man City and Luton 

Get a bloody grip. What do they expect?
Rangers were superb today and we were not.
If we play well and they play well, we get beaten, simple as that.
I honestly think these comments are from fans that don’t go to games and simply haven't a clue.
What we are doing this year is outstanding. Third place is our target and we will get this.

You can’t put people down for having ambitions to be better.

Checked London Hearts, we lost by 5 to Rangers in 2019 and 2022 (the Feb 3mo beforre their Europa Final). 

 

Before that the last time we lost by a five gioal margin (to Rangers) was at Ibrox in the SC quarters in March 1980, while we were in the 1st Dividion, we lost 6-1 that day.

 

Us on a run, the geenral state of thr players playing for the OF this season (they're really not hat good, good enough to with the league of course) should have made for a resonably competitive game.  We shat it, without Rangers having to really get out of 2nd gear.

 

Yesterday was the fourth time in 44 years, and that's us on the back of a 28/30pts run to a team with boys playing that hardly any of us have heard of. Didn't even need the officials.

 

Cheers for that. It's done....we move on. Let's pump that shower of shite on Wednesday and get back on it👍
