Awaits inevitable 6-0 defeat and board meltdown because we "should've just parked the bus to keep our run going"....

Hindsight is a wonderful thing, but personally I'm never sure it's such a good idea to try to do these sorts of things during a game. Of course in a perfect world there's no reason not to, and there's never any excuse for that kind of behaviour. But unfortunately most supports probably do have an element that's capable of behaving like that, and you just can't predict what might happen on the pitch to rile them, or even just distract our own fans, before or during whatever was planned.

To be fair, even Lewis Irons on MFC TV comms had no idea that's what was going on, so I wouldn't really expect most Hearts fans to know either.

Looong way to go yet. Hearts well capable of scoring one or two here... though they do have a poor record of coming from behind recently.

Hastie does it again! 1-0.

In isolation it’s a great save, but no better than some of the great saves we see from all round the world every week these days. It’s mostly the context that makes it memorable... reigning world champions vs best team in the world, Pele persuaded out of retirement to play again (and allegedly shouting “gol!” as he headed it), keeps the score at 0-0 so England still have one hand on “their” trophy, etc.

To be fair, he was never much of a goalscorer (with a career total of 24), and he presumably wasn't signed as one having only ever scored 4 goals previously. From an expectations point of view, scoring that hat-trick was probably the worst thing he could have done.

I don't blame him at all for taking it on himself. Was just something I noticed, and will be interesting to see whether the coaching staff did too and tell him to look next time

Without both, we'd possibly have been in bigger trouble this year.... so I'd quite like to keep both if they're both happy. Otherwise, I'd be tempted to keep Carson (assuming he's fit), just on the basis that a full international goalkeeper has the potential to make us an extra few quid if he moves on again in a year or two.

It didn't go through the keeper's legs, it came off his left arm and deflected in. It was the least Hastie deserved for the two bits of strength and skill you mention though... if I had any criticism it was that he didn't appear to look up and see Gboly unmarked at the back post, but at 2-0 up and confidence high he was more than entitled to have a pop himself.

If only Gboly could shoot...

Their annual turnover is about £2m more than ours, so I wouldn't bet on it.

Ouch. That's like watching a third generation VHS copy of something somebody originally videoed at the pictures.

Right back on it from kick off. Good to see.

Just like that!

Curtis Main couldn't finish a fish supper at the minute.

Tom Boyd's not that fat.

The sad thing is, I'm not shocked in the least.

Working fine for me.

In the "whoosh" way, I suspect.

Another forward. Played with McCormack at Leeds (well, he was there at the same time -- only made 2 first team starts, according to Wikipedia). Also capped at U20 and U23 level for USA. https://www.motherwellfc.co.uk/2019/01/07/nottingham-forests-gboly-ariyibi-joins-on-loan/
