desperate to give them a penalty

oh to have a left footer at left back!

even hearts commentator says it was the correct decision not to give it.

BBC going with a still picture of the so called penalty. Boyce?? was already on the way down when Casey lunged at him.

Not true, he tracked back at the end there and won a header against two hearts players at back post. Bair, on the other hand has been dreadful. Mind you long punts up the park for them to chase is hardly providing a service to them.

anyone seen our midfield??

need to get the young full backs on at half time. We need pace and width. We are far to narrow and hearts have all the time in the world in wide areas.

Could be wrong, but I thought oxborough was glued to his line, much like Kelly in the cup games. For a big lad, I don't think he was commanding. Maybe he was following orders. Its surely something the goalie coach should be looking at.

Modern life is rubbish eh. People don't have any patience anymore and everything needs to happen now for their own benefit and apparent well being. Social media helps the minority to whip up a crisis, when in the past it was a blip. Club success anywhere rarely happens overnight and managers need time to build a team, especially clubs who don't have much money. Every teams fans forum, say the same. Sack. The manager as he's hopeless etc etc. Perhaps we can be different for once and our fan base can be a bit more realistic about our level in the game and support the manager/players.

Apart from setplays, st johnstone offered nothing in attack. We generally tried to play through them, but until Gent arrived on the field we failed to create anything for the front two. Gents arrival injected width and pace. Play was then stretched which suited us. The team has character, but players need to be more switched on and take responsibility in defence, by attacking the ball. As much as some here will not like it, we ain't any worse or better than many teams in this league. Luck plays a big part when teams are similar.

now that we are scoring goals, any chance lads we can stop conceding soft goals from crosses.

square the ball you muppet

take it wee davor is pants. we need some energy in the middle

now defend set pieces

starting to get decisions from the referee.

ya beauty

timewasting.....

put their defence under pressure, and they will concede.

st johnstone have offered nothing going forward, bar two crosses and their defence is comical. They have the luck tho.

a foul is a foul irrespective if hes looking for it...

Get the ball to wilkinson in the box and he will score. Outside the box hes useless.

At the end of the day, its a game of football. Why a few bad results, when we were playing well, should suddenly impact experienced players to the extent all confidence has gone and bad result snowball is beyond me. Two crosses into the six yard box, and we lose two goals. Maybe instead of trying to walk the ball into the net, have a few attempts at goal from outside the area.

To be fair to the manager, its the big defenders who can't defend two punts into the box to blame.

Nope, not going to happen tonight. Ball not falling for us.

We need a commanding goalie.
