stephanepaille Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 So its Parkhead for the JT's next week and to be honest we have to go there fancying our chances after what can only be described as a dismal display from back to front from the smellies today. I always have this feeling though that Celtic seem to raise it that wee bit more against us than they do Hibs...probably because we are the bigger team but they turn it into a cup tie type of game against us and we will have to be at the races. But im very confident that we can go there and get a result whether that be a draw or manage a victory. I also notice that on the Hibs.net they are getting all excited about catching us and also Craig Conway of United going on about being third......we werent beaten yesterday...the game was off so still 5 wins on the bounce and we do have that game in hand....looks good to me.

Jamboy81 Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 Absolutely no chance! I mean seriously, the days when Hearts could expect to go to Glasgow and win and long gone. The fact that Celtic lost today just makes it even more unlikely. I doubt anyone can remember the last time they lost back to back league matches, perhaps someone could look into the stats. But i'm guessing it wasn't within the past 10 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben Dover Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 Have you honestly seen Celtic looking so absolutely average though ? I don't know what the ins and outs are at their club but if players like Naka don't feature and McGeady and Samaras only come on as a late subs, one surely has to wonder if WGS has maybe 'lost' the dressing room ? Unfortunately we might reap the whirlwind next week though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular John Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 I thought Celtic really missed Robson today, he gives the team a bit of drive and bite in midfield. If he's still out next week and our lot are motivated I don't see any reason why we can't get a draw at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Listen, Hearts will always be the underdogs at Celtic Park, better Hearts teams in the past have travelled through there and got humped. But now and again we have managed to get a result at a very daunting arena. Lets hope we can get some sort of result on Saturday, with the Hobos and Utd winning this weekend we could do with taking something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gigolo-Aunt Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 I dont think there is many Hearts fans who dont realise the size of the task next week. Celtic had been on a very decent run in the league before today and they will want to bounce back next week and get the league charge back on the right track. That said, we are on a good run ourself and confidence which results bring must be high within the camp. Csaba will no doubt be working hard all week with the players - working on systems that they feel they can contain and hurt Celtic with. Very difficult game next week, but I would like to think that Hearts turn up with a little spring in their step and can cause Celtic problems. We will need to defend well and work as a unit, no doubt on that - but if we be brave and want the ball and can manage to keep it - we may just get something.

Charlie-Brown Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 Parkhead has always been a daunting away fixture but we've managed to get some results there & can next week if we keep it tight at the back and get in about them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Don Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 Im not brimming with absolute confidence, I never am when its a trip to the cess pits in glasgow, but having watched that shower today there has to be at least a slight bit of hope, they were completely rotten, well beaten by what could be said the worst hobo team in years. Celtic have scrapped results this season with the help of many a dodgy decision from refs. They are no-where near they team they were under the speccy wee leprechaun, We all know they will be up for it now next week not just because its the famous JT's but because they were stuffed by their wee mhanky cousins today, but lets not write off our chances before we even step onto the field. Some people really need to take a look at themselves and question there loyalty. Its not a bad thing not to be full of confidence but its surely a bad thing to write off your own team and think we will be beaten, no matter who we play.

leginten Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 If they've got that wage-thief Samaras in their line-up, anything can happen. When he comes on, it's the sign that Strachan is throwing in the towel. They were desperate today - to see them allow so much space and time to a Hibs midfield which looked on paper as if it was in for a steamrollering was astonishing.

jambojim52 Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 Call me paranoid if you will but there is no way a ref will allow us to win with thousands of baying weegies at him all game.

Cade Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 It depends on how much effoert they put into beating Villareal in midweek.

Celtic are 1/3 on Hand of Glooms odds must lie somewhere between 8-1 and his stated "no chance" (a number approaching infinity I presume). I'll meet him part way, take 10-1 and lay a 5 quid charity bet on the table now. My 50 quid winnings to Marie Curie Cancer Care should Hearts win, and Hand of Glooms 5 quid to his own preferred charity should he prevail.

And there have been other games where we have thrown away leads right at the death. 2-2 April 2005 and 1-2 Nov 2006 - felt sick after them. 8 MINUTES of stoppage added in the 2-1 defeat so smeltic could get their goal.
