Game over.
-
I’m sure his bigger pay packet that he’s picking up at Utd will numb the pain for him.
-
Wilkinson back in the squad albeit on the bench.
-
They were yes, though those games won’t have any bearing on what happens this Sunday. I do think though that this type of game is one that might, just might suit us and our style of play. We don’t have a recognised goalscorer but we do have a side that can frustrate teams who are better than us man for man. We saw that at Tynecastle the other week and we saw it at Celtic Park back in April, albeit with the advantage of having a proper striker on that occasion. We say the same every time before these games but it’s vital that we don’t concede early here. The longer we frustrate them the better for us and the more their fans will get on their backs. I don’t see us not conceding but the longer we keep them out the better, and if we can get ourselves in front even better still. Or we could just do our usual and get pumped 3-0.
-
In all likelihood we will get beat on Sunday. However given our strong away form under Kettlewell then that might give us a glimmer of hope that we can snatch something.
-
Yes, my mistake. I’ve corrected it now.
-
If we can keep our unbeaten away league record under Kettlewell going then that will make for a superb September weekend. 1-1
-
Good luck to them fuck all. Their fans are arseholes and their manager uses tactics that set out to kick and injure opponents. They need to fall asap and the sooner that happens the better.
-
Well obviously, but I still take satisfaction in our fans letting him know that he’s a c**t for his assault on Biereth the other week. Put it simply, Dunne, Robinson and St.Mirren are c**ts and the sooner they fall the better.
-
That’s true and I can’t fault his level of effort. He actually reminds me of Ryan Bowman in that he’s the type of forward who needs a goal scoring striker to play alongside in order to be effective. Here’s hoping Hearts slap him and St.Mirren right back into their box next Saturday.
-
Obviously we can’t blame SK for Biereth (well done to everyone who booed Dunne today btw) but signing a player who had scored one goal all season and was ridiculed by St.Johnstone fans last season was madness. Obviously every signing we make is a gamble but at least try and stack the odds in your favour. The same could be said for re-signing a 32 year old Jon Obika who we knew was injury prone.
-
We played well enough today but if you can’t score goals then you don’t win football matches. Our forward options are absolute garbage.
-
Looks like we’re just going to have to keep our fine away form going by getting a point at Ibrox next Sunday.
-
Think that’s glaringly obvious. We could play until midnight and not score. SK has done a very good job for us but his summer transfer business has fallen badly short when it comes to signing forward players and today that is painfully evident.
-
Shaw on for Bair.
-
100%. We need to give him the chance to see what he can do.
-
Don’t deserve to be behind on the balance of play but the problem is we are absolutely toothless up front. Bair won’t do I’m afraid. A lot of effort but he just can’t be relied upon to lead the line for us.
-
Happy enough with that lineup. Hopefully we do the business and take care of these Paisley boneheed fuckwits.
-
Given the injuries/suspension list then we’ll be doing well to get a point tomorrow. That said since SK has been in charge he has shown that he is capable of getting the very best out of the players he has available so you never know. I stand by my 2-2 prediction.
-
Well us for starters. Also I think you could say the same for Partick Th, Killie and a fair few others in the west of Scotland. Even if you look east, north east to be more precise, Aberdeen seem to base a lot of their identity nowadays on their hatred and rivalry with Rangers Yes and though I appreciate dennyc's kind words of support I don't feel that I have been on the end of any abuse over my views on Hearts on this thread. I simply give my opinion based on my own experiences and respect that others will have different opinions based on different experiences. I don't conform to groupthink and I am not a parrot so I'm not going to start rattling on about what Hearts fans did in the 70s (before my time) or pretending that I believe that they are worse than Aberdeen or Hibs etc. That's all.
-
I don’t love Hearts or hate the National team. I’m not a Hearts supporter but do have a grudging degree of respect for them as a club for their strong identify and impressive support. I actually did the Tynecastle museum tour quite recently and it gives a real insight into their origins and history and their proud standing as a club. “We don’t have supporters, we have the heart and soul of Edinburgh” is a slogan which you see around the ground and the museum and I think that’s impressive, as football club slogans go. Unlike so many non Old Firm clubs in Scotland they are a club which stand alone with their own roots and identity and don’t worry or fret about how they look to OF fans or have this desperate need to be an “alternative to the Old Firm” or anything. And yes, I fully accept that there will be some arseholes in their fanbase, just like any other club. The National Team I am simply indifferent to. I have done the stadium/museum tour at Hampden too though I might add.
-
Ffs this is getting beyond a joke now with our injuries.
-
Oh, okay. 🦜
-
Just reporting my own experience of it all. I have no doubt that there are other Motherwell fans who’s experience with Hearts and their fans is different and therefore they hold a degree of disdain for them. In my personal experience they are largely alright, if a bit on the arrogant side in some cases. Would you prefer if I just nodded along and went “I fucking hate those Scumbos! Just as bigoted as Rangers! John Colquhoun! Neil Berry! Gorgie Road! Texaco Cup! FHW! Bastards! Grrrrrrrrrrghhh!” ??

That’s international weekends for you. The sooner the real football is back the better. It’ll be a tight one on Saturday, would love a win but think this one’s a draw. 2-2
