Sad to see Louis go obviously but we have to be realistic, which I think we are, and its a great piece of business for everyone concerned. For me the panic of a Moult- less world will be when we enter the winter break still on 23 points......

Replacement for Moult and possibly another striker as Bowman has regressed to how he first performed last season and Fisher whilst being given limited minutes hasnt looked up to it. Cover for central defence. A new left back. Can we afford the above though? Not sure who will be unloaded but theres a few surplus to requirements and/or not good enough.

Just another in a long list of bad decisions from McHugh this season. His first booking at Perth the day he was sent off was an utterly needless challenge also.

Hopefully some of the injured players are back as we need to stop the rot urgently and certain players need an extended spell on the sidelines. If all bar Moult are available Id play Carson Tait Kipre Hartley Hammell Frear Campbell Bigirimana Cadden Tanner Fisher

Agree with all of this. Couldnt have put it better myself. Although I also agree about Tait, I think McHugh and Rose deserve all the criticism coming their way Im afraid. Buck stops with Robinson though for continually picking them.

Maybe if we had picked the right starting 11 and been even marginally less shit we might have got something from that. Im going to go out on a limb and say we wont win another game in 2017. Im glad theres a decent gap between us and 11th but thats going to get eaten away in no time if we keep this up.

If only we hadnt given a team a 3 goal start. Again!

Mistakes by Dunne and McHugh? Surely not. Yet they play every week.....

Changes at ht are pointless. Robinson should try playing the correct team from the start.

2-0 thistle. Bravo to all involved. I thought this side were meant to have some fight about them?!!

1-0 Thistle

As I said, its not the team I wouldve started. Id never in a million years have Dunne before Hammell and Rose was completely anonymous on Saturday and didnt deserve to retain his starting place tonight being 2 examples.

Its not the team I wouldve picked but then it was never going to be! Pleased that Campbell and Grimshaw both start, presumably both in central midfield. Interesting that Bigirimana and Tanner are both on the bench. I wonder if Robinsons comments about players moaning they werent involved when the team was winning but then failing to influence games was aimed at them?

Carson is 50/50. The others are definitely out. For me, we need a minimum of 4 points from the next 3 games. Anything less than that, injuries or not, is an extremely poor haul from 3 games v Thistle, Killie and Dundee.

Cannae argue with any of that either!

Cannae argue with any of that actually.

Robinson confirms in press conference that along with Moult, Cadden, Hartley, Fisher and possibly Carson are all out for this.

Id agree with all that.

Were actually on a bit bad run at the moment which no one seems to be mentioning (and Moult etc were only missing for 1 game), albeit 2 games were v Celtic but 4 points from 18, 1 win in 6 is pretty poor. I think were under a bit of pressure to get something on Wednesday as 1 win in 7 is very poor and then we are away to a resurgent Killie.... I like to get my panicking in early as you know!

Quite possibly. Last 6 games weve taken 4 points.

Play like we played yesterday and were getting zero points. Next 3 games could go along way to determining whether we sell Moult in January. Really need to be taking 6 from 9. Certainly no less than 4. Id bring Hammell in for Dunne.

Id agree with benching Kipre but who else do you play? If Hammell is fit then Dunne needs benched also. Despite the supposed strength in depth Im not sure of the best way to deploy Bigirimana or Tanner and Im not sure Robinson does either. Or maybe theyre just not that good? I thought there was a real lack of fight today. We were certainly short of ideas and did not do the basics well. Play like that on Wednesday and we could well lose again and then youre in danger of the season hitting a severe downward trajectory.

Worst result and performance of the season. Even with the players missing we shouldve been able to pass the ball and have done semblance of a game plan. Bowman and Rose were particularly bad. Thistle, Accies, County and Killie all taken points of Hearts at Home this season and we never even looked like scoring.

Cant see anything in the starting 11 that looks wild. Of am I missing something? Do we have a sub goalie though?

Aye. But at the same time, even with those players missing, were still capable of fielding a better starting 11 than Ross County, Thistle and Accies who all took points from Tynecastle recently. I still think well get beat though!
