Livingston V Hearts 5/12 match thread

[RossBFaeDundee]

McEneff should be burying that, some pass from Boyce to set him off.

[Cptn Hooch]

Must have about 20 minutes added time at this rate

[Cptn Hooch]

Never offside!!! That's a stonewall penalty!!!! f**k these officials

[Cptn Hooch]

Then hearts nearly scoring while clearly offside [emoji30]

[Crùbag]

How shit is Gnanduillet?

Him and Woodburn can leave in Januray.

[Gorgie greatness]

Never in doubt

[paranoid android]

Great to get three points from that game - big Craig working wonders for us again. 

[woolf]

Much better 2nd half.Nando is a fkn donkey though.

[EdinburghLivi]

The difference a good striker and keeper can make...

As soon as the shape changed, we were never scoring. Lost all balance and Forrest was completely wasted. 

[topcat(The most tip top)]

That’ll do hearts, that’ll do.

[DC92]

Horrible first half, OK second. 

I guess playing shite but winning is preferable to the "playing quite well but drawing" habit that we had earlier in the season.

They can’t all be like the Dundee United fixture

Well, we were absolutely hopeless for 45 minutes but the half time steroid injections certainly improved us.

Woodburn starting away games is a passenger.

Craig Gordon is a magnificent man

Pretty poor from us, but it’s the points that matter. I miss Beni.

More teams should try not defending against us imo.

[Kyle Reese]

Five points ahead of the chasing pack for third is nice. Think that’s also Hibs a minimum of five behind, even after games in hand too, isn’t it?

Having to play Peter Haring to cover Beni’s absence is a big step forward from having to play Loïc Damour to cover Haring’s absence

Terrible first half, much better second. We could,  and should have, had a couple more bear the end but finishing and composure let us down.

Haring made a big difference.

Gordon's triple save was magnificent.  Can't help think the pundits are overdoing it with the "Gordon kept us in it" line though. It was clearly  brilliant,  but it was all in a 15 second spell, at the very worst wed have been 1 down. Hardly like Livingston would've been out of sight.

It wasn't offside, but was it f**k a penalty. Souttar gets a touch on the ball.

We go a goal up and who knows what would've happened, totally different game 2nd half anyway. Hearts scored  and it made a big difference, we got caught on the counter a few times, which wouldn't have happened if we weren't chasing the game. Gordon def made a huge difference to the outcome of this game with that triple save, and the lucky one hitting the post that beat him.
