Matchday Thread ICT -V- Hearts

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

Roberts has lost the place. Big hearts call for a pen but hit Meekings on the back. We are simply letting them take control. Next goal now is crucial as they are now first to everything and they are getting the run of the ball.

When is Roberts getting hooked?

Good decision, I think. He's looked too casual trying to take the ball put of defence a few times in the second half. Shane will take the ball and run with it, which is what we need at the moment. Hearts look hungrier, which is a little strange as we could be going equal top today.

Poor second half but still look dangerous. Craigan is an awful co commentator all he does is repeat himself

ESPN shows that Shinnie was just offside - perhaps it is a ploy to play so feckin deep so we can surprise them on the break. Has anyone seen OTJ this half ?

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

Question - has anyone witnessed a team completely wasting so many shots and crosses as hearts have and how many times have we tried to take players on and lost out every feckin time ?

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

Sutton could be a big danger

[alternative maryhill]

Sutton coming on :( Our last-ditch defending has been excellent this half - has had to be - but he always seems to cause us problems.

[alternative maryhill]

Nail hit head by Butcher there.

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

Terry on the mic saying that we are giving the ball away too much but worryingly says that we need to weather the storm which to me means keep what we have got - risky stuff - attack, score and we win !!

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

We just can't seem to put two passes or even two touches together and they are winning every tackle. The one thing that is going to save this for us now is the final whistle. Morrison fer Shinnie shows the clear intent,

[alternative maryhill]

F*** off. Only got ourselves to blame if they score this, unfortunately.

[Tichy_Blacks_Back]

Penalty - must admit it was coming....

[Tichy_Blacks_Back]

1-1 - damn

[Tichy_Blacks_Back]

Nearly 2-1

[SMEE]

who didint see that coming

[KennySim93]

feck sake!

[Tichy_Blacks_Back]

A late winner?

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

I can see OTJ now although he clearly didn't mean to impede Paterson. Lets face it no less than we and they deserved. And at last and probably too late we come alive !!

[gordieict]

Soft penalty but a draw probably a fair result a real game of two halves

[alternative maryhill]

Don't want to criticise the team too much as they have been absolutely fantastic recently, but it's really frustrating to see them suddenly looking so dangerous again after Hearts score, after having apparently sat back for most of the previous hour. Hopefully we'll get a bit of a reaction to that next week - we owe Motherwell a doing.

[gordieict]

We had nobody out there taking the game by the scruff of the neck when we were toiling

[starchief]

crying out for Draper or Ross. Jones was fantastic in the first 30 mins but both he and Foran were missing for too long. Raven was excellent though. So much didnt go right for both Roberts and AShinnie, i felt a little sorry for them.
