Clearly we have the mock outrage patrol out. Very Partick Thistle. Quite a number of other forums have fans calling each other some very tasty language.

A lot of good points there, as per my opinion on the AJ thread - gone to a jury's out status. He's stopped tinkering but there is some questionable subs at points - the more settled team has reaped benefits.

I think rather than championing Johansen out - I've changed my opinion to a neutral status. He's made some horrendous teething errors e.g Vogts Celtic but we've been decent to watch the last three.

Better performances certainly give us hope but the jury is still out.

Does mcglynn not combine both styles? I get the feeling people are snobbish about him in the same way Celtic and Rangers fans think every player they sign from anyone in Scotland is not good enough.

I've noticed you doing this parallel chat a few times - it's a reference to how fickle scots club are at chasing their managers. The in-game management from our manager lost us the game tonight. I think you should focus on that, and not what every other teams forums are shouting about.

I would hope the manager would be able to get a message out to control the situation. I know it doesn't work in every instance - but it would have been better than the control we lost by the substitution.

AJ's in-game management is extremely poor. We don't need to give up our mantra, we simply need to get a better version of what we have.

AJ can jog on as well! Happy exercise Grizzly!

As per @star sail words O'Donnell is a very experienced former International player getting paid a very reasonable wage to be a professional football player. To bring him on for the last 10 in his natural position to provide stability, freshness, respite to tired players is perfectly reasonable and legitimate. You cannot preempt the mistake that follows.

In any which we play - great, poor - in Scotland if you can't defend the area, you are relegation material. Couple of months until we can shore this up.

I wonder if we will all have the same amount of patience when we are playing Hamilton away after our first ever relegation from the SPL.

I think we did fine enough today performance wise but the reason I thought we would get beat today was devilment. Hearts are one of the worst team to play in these conditions because they can score with a header out of not much and that was going to make all the difference today.

I would say many would have forecasted an O’Donnell mistake. Will go the same was as Halliday soon and into permanent broadcasting.
