Hearts (A)

Wouldn't have mattered with the VAR sending off etc... we'd have still lost that game today from 1 up, can't kill teams off, can't keep it tight at the back, not good enough all round, weak bench too, that's just the reality of the situation, folk can dress it up how they like.

Agree.We are just nae good enough.Going to take a massive effort to get out of this.WEare still biddim.

Would like to know how the boy Koul stayed on the park after his two-footed long jump effort on Liam Smith. That's an absolutely horrific attempt at a challenge.

We were by the far the better team in the 1st half. We were always going to be up against it in the 2nd with the 10 men. We had no luck, VAR didn't or our away. As much as our performance at Killie was rotten today there is no blame for losing that one. if we put in more performances like we did 1st half today we will get out of this.

I think regardless of the outcome from here we have seen enough to continue the belief we can get out of the danger zone

Killie away was disappointing (especially given the pen miss) but we are good enough to win enough games between now and game 38 imo

Killie away disappointing? For me, the players should be putting in the same effort game after game, whether that is for Jack Ross, Liam Fox, away to a sh!tey Killie on a sh!tey pitch, or away to Hearts on what football should be played on!

VAR may have robbed us of 3 points today, 6 including the Motherwell farce, but the players are culpable for so many of the other points lost this season.

How many more games have they really got in them?

Every player on that park should be proud of themselves today....got to feel sorry for Pawlett, what a game he was having until his hammy went. 3-1 flattered them ti fk and the only luck we had was bad luck.....no complaints from me the day apart from the officiating whether it be var or the refs......and one more thing,I was having a drum free day until the 75th minute....who the fk brings a drum to the match and doesn't beat it until 15 minutes to go😂in saying that that's when they sung their 1st song. Got to be the most boring fans in admittedly Scotland's best stadium.

The game is ****ed, it really really is. That is not even a foul, never mind a booking or a ****ing red. 2 officials however have looked at that and decided on a red card. Wasn't out of control, clearly won the ball but caught the player on the follow through. Totally nonsensical decision

Totally agreed with you at the time and even watching it on Sportscene at first. The last view shown though he catches the Hearts player for sure and looks like VAR was right in this instance.

Eh??
Yeah, he catches the player, because that player is late going into the challenge. Edwards clearly kicks the ball, and that in itself means his foot will follow through. His foot is not high, it’s a natural movement from his momentum kicking the ball (physics). If others think that this is a red card, then the game is totally fecked!

This 100 % If anything Hlliday fouls Edwards.

exactly. if he gets there first and wins the ball then what follows is only what can follow. Edwards cant do anything other than what ocurred. that he caught the player was simply inevitable in winning the ball. If players cant go in for an honest challenge and get there first without getting sent off it changes the game fundamentally.

Watching the Sassuolo v Atalanta game on BTSport, and the away team have had exactly the same decision. Non football playing people watching tackles in slow motion in a room is not the way forward ffs!!
