McNulty to break Hearts

What I don't get if that's its been obvious for ages we won't get the attacking style they want this season but we will get a good defence, solid, hardworking team giving their all for the club yet they still complain after every game we don't win about the attack

They also seem hell bent on TC a young manager who has done pretty well in many aspects (impressive in Glasgow for example losing just 3 goals in 3 games) and at home to Sevco over both games just 1 goal in his first season, would be great to see what he can do over, 2-3 seasons but they want to rip it up so we never know if it would have worked out or not

I can't even read there, not good for the blood pressure, as you can imagine giving my obvious stance

I'm the same as you. Can't say what is being said on other platforms as I've never been on them but Tam certainly gets and easier ride on here than MM did/does even though the football on offer isn't much different. Tam is doing an OK job imo nothing more nothing less.

How is wanting the scorers in the team to actually do that come across as arrogant?

And while we're at it, no-one said change the manager, plenty have said to change the forwards though

Spin my posts whatever way you want

I need to mention Butcher yesterday telling the fans in the ET to calm down when we were 2-1 up. Class. All I could think of was Whitfield's blood pressure going through the roof. 😂

Some folk simply don't like the guy for whatever reason and seem to be waiting by their keyboards for our next defeat. Boys screaming for him to drop Clark & McNulty. To play f*cking who exactly???

Good point on the Fun having a better squad than us. I mind that. ������ Paul McMullan is their best player ffs. That about sums that one up.

I for one am looking forward to next season & seeing what the manager can do without (hopefully) having one hand tied behind his back because of transfer window cost cutting. I'm sure he knows where our failings are and is thinking the exact same.

Plenty of vitriol towards fellow supporters from shedka, just because people don't share his opinion.

Were you yourself not one of the more negative ones prior to the season start? Please forgive me if I have that wrong however.

Butch did a great job yesterday. Especially when he had to drop back into CB and guide two young defenders Neilson & Graham through a tough game.

All round, you can't question the attitude and work-rate of the players. And Tam is learning and improving too.

I think if we can see out this season securely (hopefully squeeze top six) then I think we can look forward to next season.

Everything is so tight in the middle of the league. You can drop 4 or 5 places in the blink of an eye! Crazy stuff! But actually makes for a competitive league that is interesting.

Regarding McNulty, I think he needs to find the net frequently between now and the end of the season or else a parting of ways a certainty. He can't say he's no getting a chance. He's starting every week. I really would like him to find form and be a success at Utd.

Comes across as a really nice guy but he has broken my heart for nearly two season's now.I wonder what level he will be playing at on his next permanent contract?.Clearly Reading do not want him regardless of how bad they have been in recent years and that says it all really.

Gandhi, was seemingly a really nice guy, but he would keep slippin' aboot on they flip-flops playin' doon the slope.

There is a time and place for any decision.... and regarding McNulty it should be made now.
