Oddquine you are entitled to that opinion but I don't agree with it. If we had won I doubt this would even be getting a mention tbh

Likely not...but we didn't win and the 18 year old who lost it for us was a Marsella pick, endorsed by Terry,,,and not one of the homegrown youth players.  I feel for Roberts because I think that losing a match as a result of his failure is going to do bugger all for his confidence going forward....but I do wonder why he was picked to take the penalty  in the first place......I really do!

 

What makes you think that Roberts was picked to take a penalty?

 

Because the coach has to provide the referee with the five chosen players and the order in which they are going to take the kicks in.

Just a word on the SPL games this weekend.  all three games were draws so the 6 clubs involved shared 6 points between them instead of 9.  We are 7 points ahead of the team in 7th with 2 games in hand.

St Mirren are now the only team who can do the treble.

Can anyone give me the lyrics to the chant about "might be Germany, might be Spain"?

Billy didn't even make The Guardian's "miss of the week"... ach, it happens.

Look on the bright side. We're only 180 mins away from Hampden

McKay miss - I was in the Hearts end (long story!) and level with the 6 yard line. The ball was fractionally behind him (or he over-ran it, take your pick) which is why he had the extra touch rather than slide it into the empty net. That touch was a bit heavy, which let the defender get to the line.

 

I can't believe that we sprung the offside trap 3 times at that end and didn't score at least once.

 

And those having a go at Roberts - have a word with yourselves. At least he had the nuts to take one. His tactic was to do the stutter, hope that MacDonald went early and aim for the big space. Unfortunately, MacDonald stayed put, and that unnerved him.

 

Ach well, we could have won it, and probably should have won it. A bit more nous and using width at 11 v 10 could have done it, but I guess it was not to be.

Go on, we've got time!

see bbc.co.uk/sport have mackays miss on video & audio asking if it is the worst miss of the season.

looks like he might be with us for a while, it may put off any suitors.

OK - long time subscribers will remember that pre 1994, Hearts were my big team, it's no big secret. And now they are my wee team, that's no secret either.

 

I was there with a mate who I had previously forced to watch a game at Tynecastle from our end. Saturday was payback. And it was one of the worst experiences I have had at a football match in a very long time.

 

And the really annoying thing? Hearts lost loads of poxy semi-finals when I was there supporting them!

Highlight for me at Easter Road (despite the agony of losing) had to be the wee guy in our end with the Hibs scarf supporting our team. I now find myself starting to like Hibs!

 

As for our boys in blue - you've all given us a fabulous season so far and we still have hope in both the Scottish Cup and League. You've all done us proud - TB, Mo and all our lads. So chin up please. Saturday is water under the Kessock Bridge. There are bigger prizes ahead of us to be won!!!

Can you help the police  http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-edinburgh-east-fife-21221960

 

Easter road wasnt the only place where fraudulent activity was going on.  

I hope the polis nip that in the bud.
