There was nowhere near 1,000 Hearts fans standing on Saturday.

Well I can see where the stewards will be most heavily deployed on Saturday now :015:

Yet again this show what kind of atmosphere can be generated when like minded individuals get together for the banter. **** designated seating!

Does anyone know how close Gretna were to their full strength 11? I hope that was pretty much their first team as it would only serve to confirm the notion that they are a load of rubbish.

Any idea what he did? I doubt they will let you stand up sadly. However, given the events of Arbroath, was it not a bit daft to taunt the stewards in that manner? We've all heard of what one or two will do when faced with that situation so could you have had any complaints had they thrown you out? Let sleeping dogs lie and all that.

JJB Rangers!?

Really? Whereabouts? I mind there was one up the back near Next but then it moved out onto the "High Street" but that has since closed since the JJB deal.

I think I'll have a bit of work to do when I return to the office tomorrow. Actually, it might be a bit too much for me so I don't think I'll bother my arse to do anything about it. Yeah, I can see my boss liking that. There are plenty of stewards going to enforce the sitting down policy that ICT are so **** bent on employing to home fans. It's no exaggeration to say that as we have risen through the divisions going to the football in Inverness has become less and less fun with each season.

God no.

Rangers shops were pretty much amalgamated into JJB stores a couple of years ago.

And the rest of the Away fans that were standing? Given that one steward stood next to persistent standers at the back of Section D in the Away I was surprised to see that particular steward take no action.

I believe CaleyGeek CaleyD :016: is on it :011:

One of the reasons why, while I've been very impressed with Cowie, I don't think he is meant to be played wide right.

Indeed it was :003: Erm, when exactly? Fully agree with that. I wished he had made the subs sooner. We thoroughly deserved to win that game and the only bad thing was that it took so long to get the winner.

What game was he removed and subsequently banned from? The Hearts game or the Arbroath one or A. N. other?

Why didn't they just put those big spikes you see on buildings to keep pigeons away? :003:

Clearly Miko has been having a few words with Elliot and Kingston...

I could see from the North Stand that Elliot had dived. He is a big headed goon anyway. Wish someone had flattened him on the pitch.

Never in a million years was that the best Hearts performance up here. Aye, of course it was Frail who took him of. He's not a puppet or anything. But you are right, he was destroying Tokely and Cowie. he had one brilliant piece of skill that saw him take out both players and sprint off towards goal. We easily deserved that win. Hearts had a fair bit of the ball but lets be honest, we were their best chances in the first half with the o.g. and Duncans fantastic diving header past his own post. They had that Kingston free kick that hit the post, well won I might add, but aside from that that I think we more than held our own and had the better of the game. Good to see Wyness so lethal from 1 inch but he was creative as always I thought. Niculae was decent enough though he had a bit of an unsavoury incident with Neilson when he trod on the back of his head accidentally. Black and Cowie were excellent yesterday. Our passing out of defence was mince but I didn't think they were too bad overall.

Why have the put a load of woodboard up behind the "Singing Section"?

Who is Stewart Paterson?

Black was superb yesterday. His passing and creativity were a joy to watch. He got stuck in as well winning the ball back on almost every occasion he went in for a challenge.

And that has really helped. Additionally, perhaps merits a separate thread, but I am sure I am not the only one to notice sections of the Hearts support standing throughout the game with no interference from stewards. Even when they went and stood amongst them.

That said, I doubt he would like the interference from higher up at Madrid given what's been going on at Chelski.

Whichever one of Schuster Rijkaard gets sacked first is where I would expect him to end up. Until the odd announcement this morning of Avram Grant taking up the position as Head Coach I thought someone like Capello might have been in there.
