    I just want to see some desire from the prima donnas, even getting hmped with desire is better than watching paint dry and being humped.

    By the time a match finishes here its midnight. For us old guys we need our sleep. And going to bed with a bad head is not good.

    We need to not get dragged down into a sunday league match with Morton. Their players do it, and we fall for it every time. We need to be at the ref and rolling about at every tackle... try and get them on some yellow cards nice and early. We also need our midfielders to pop a shot in now and again! I get that possession has a higher success rate in getting goals... but that only works if you can have the right players in the final third! If you don't buy a ticket... you won't win the raffle....so an occasional rasper from 30 yrds might work! Dougie Imirie has JG sussed...so he will set his team out exactly has he has done for our previous meetings....we need to change tactics a wee bit.

    I honestly dont think Goodwin has it in him to "change tactics".
    To me his only strength is giving plausible interviews, which in fairness, he is very good at. Other than that, hes hopeless.

    I don't know why we have that shooting drill at the end of the warm up. In the Airdrie game, after about 10 mins, grieve after a decent bit of skill cut it back, and three players in and around the edge of the box, proceeded to pass the ball when a shot was on, think it ended with sibbald floating a harmless diagonal cross out the pitch.

    Don't think this is true at all to say he is hopeless

    Hearts weren't good to watch last time they were down, they got out the division, that's all that mattered, we are on a par with them pts wise, just they didn't have anyone else accumulating a similar pts total as this stage

    Think the last time a team had more pts than we do now at this stage was Utd of 2019/20, if he was hopeless he would not have got us to this positron after the disaster of last term

    Absolute nonsense. He has by far the biggest budget in this division,we are top because we should be. He is f*cking hopeless and we are where we are despite him not because he's any good. This is one of the worst Championships ever,but don't let the truth stop you talking your usual statistical gobbledegook. It worked a treat for you last season, enough said.

    Hearts were an excellent watch the year they pissed it when The Rangers we’re in the league and the year they hammered Dundee to the title , if you say they weren’t then you really don’t know anything about football at tall , you just know how to spin stats and that’s it

    Ive forgotten more about football than you'll ever know going by this post

    The season you refer to that they were excellent is true but that's years ago now, we are talking the 20/21 season, they were anything but excellent, solid and steady, no better than us right more, lost to Brora in the cup and had the fans on Neilsons back most of the season for the poor fair, this is a consensus on jambos kickback but once promoted he had them 3rd the next season playing good stuff, they didn't have a title contender like Raith to push them or pressure them

    That's the reality, no spin, we are top and have as many pts as they did, deal with it

    A lot of Hearts fans wanted Robbie Neilson sacked the last time they were in The Championship despite being top. They weren't happy with the football and they were put out the cup by minnows in Brora. All sounds very familiar. Their squad was also bigger quality than ours are currently. We are on the same points as Hearts were at the same stage but we edge them out on goal difference. The following season Hearts finished 3rd top of The Premiership.

    I think we are right to raise concerns about our form in this 3rd quarter of the season but some of it has been a bit OTT. No team other United in recent years in COVID season beats us on points and goal difference. We have to get out of this slump. Raith Rovers are both the reason why we are not running away with the league and their recent slump has meant we haven't lost ground. At this stage its get to The Premiership and take stock. There is not about to to be any managerial change whether we like it or not.
