ChrisMFCfan1886 Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Always said Tynecastle wasn't a suitable stadium for the top flight. Abolish relegation and make the premiership a closed shop until a time when we become half decent again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Desp Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 I mean, if we were guaranteed to just spend the one season in the Championship, I'd be all for it. New grounds to visit, a title race to romp, it would be some laugh. The reality, however, is we'd end up stuck down there for a couple of decades like a Falkirk. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim McLean's Ghost Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Watching Hylton ripping the pish out of Aberdeen is not improving my mood with us at the foot of the table. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know he hardly kicked a ball since ballooning his penalty against St Mirren into orbit but in terms of final ball he was streets ahead of Seedorf. Who knows what happened in the end up with him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Busta Nut Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Our entire team is a collection of shite. The midfield is a joke. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the shape we played and his team mates essentially mean they are all balls just now. There is no midfield width (Lawless is probably a LM, so barring him) as none of the wide men are mids, they are all "forwards who can play anywhere along the front 3". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just sort of posted about this on the match thread. We've brought in Kelly and Lawless which is fine it means the Pieman will be nowhere near the team and as you say Lawless is probably an actual LM but the issues with the team are still there - we don't have a striker who'll back himself to score and our assortment of clownshoes defenders are still there. Alexander was talking in his pre-match about expecting players to leave but his main focus is getting players in. In that respect I'm interested to see who's not starting tomorrow as this feels like a game that's just going to be used to assess the squad.

supermarv Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Don’t know anything bout this guy or the move as he’s probably an unknown type however he’s popped up a few times being linked to us and stuff in the past week, could be one of the Rooney deal falls through... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could probably argue that everybody has been off the boil in the whole team. One of the parts of Polworth's game when we were good was through balls to wide players to run on to. Unfortunately we don't have any of those anymore so that strikes that out of his game. Gallagher's not been on the same level, O'Donnell's a trier but he's not a revelation. Watt's probably the only one with pass marks in terms of being a link man but he's not a goalscorer as such. It's just been weird. Hopefully Graham Alexander buys everyone their own pair of Copas and we bounce back to some degree. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

capt_oats Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Tbh, for all I'm keen on seeing who's coming in the door I'm equally invested in seeing who's getting trebucheted out as that seems to be as big a problem as everything else. Excited for Burrows to go full Ari Gold. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
