Some finish, drama, main thing is Hibs didn't win plus that would have been some sickener for the SSBs ha ha
Indeed, their keeper was up celebrating at the opposite end too lol
saw the highlights, the hibs equaliser reminds me of the last gasp one we lost in dingwall, the CB of the sheep (rubezic) charged into midfield, lost the header and goal was scored from where he'd have been had he not done seconds later
Thought Aberdeen were a banker to bounce back after Saturdays defeat and win that. Hearts away then Celtic at home, title challenge could very quickly be over. Second place is still there to be had though, that rangers team is stinking.
Putting our interests first and foremost it’s probably the best outcome. We’re now 11 pts clear of the bottom two, with a game in hand - right now despite sitting fourth that is still absolute priority. IMO we can start looking more upwards only after we get to 30 odd points plus and we can more confidently ‘forget’ about relegation worries. The scars of two seasons ago still run deep and we know that things can yet still turn, so seeing other teams struggle helps our cause no end.
The other good thing about Hibs drawing is that it keeps Gray in a job still. We had our false dawns two year ago with the back to back wins against the Sheep and Hibs which ultimately led to the square root of phuck all and ‘Foxy’ still in the job. Gray is incompetent and we need him to stay for as long as possible. Following Motherwell this week, in their upcoming games Hibs have a horrendous run of fixtures including, Celtic, Hearts and Aberdeen - all away from home. There’s absolutely every chance they could be sitting on 10 or 11 points by the halfway point of the season.
I was just saying this last night - I have nothing specific against either of the Edinburgh two, but as long as other teams are struggling at the wrong end of the league, while we are picking up points, it takes the pressure off of us. So I'm perfectly happy for them to continue toiling.
A lot of Union Flags in the Hearts end tonight 🙁
Everyone just ‘assumes’ that Hearts will be fine and just suddenly climb the table. Watching them tonight I’m not so sure now. Absolute meltdown in the stands at full time and all the ingredients of relegation are there (elements we know only too well from recent history) - disjointed, imbalanced and overpaid squad, total disconnect between fans and team, managerial changes, no managerial bounce, unhappy want away Captain etc etc etc. The league table doesn’t lie - we are nearly at halfway and they’re where they are for a reason………………
