Nothing on this game but got the sweaty palms. Hope we don't try to protect the lead. A second goal may break their spirit considering how shite Heart's away record is.
Next season I would like Dewhurst and De Jong gone....
A lot of what De Jong says makes sense, it's just THAT voice.......
Nothing that either say makes any sense - they are crap, end of
Zero intelligent analysis - performance all down to changed attitude acc to de Jong - he's only saying this because he is incapable of looking at what the personnel/ positional changes have done
"I'll just end him up" was apparently stein's motivation for the foul at the end - nonsense, he mistimed the tackle
"Would've been easier to score" when he hit he far post
"Huysegems has been out of the squad" - on the bench yes
Slight improvement from them at half time admittedly
At the risk of being Debbie Downer, I'm not looking forward to the second half, for one reason and one reason only - our passes are hitting their target at about 70%, whereas for the Heart it's more like 90. The last time I saw something like this was against WSW. I am picking Heart to be much tougher in this half. If I were a betting woman, which I ain't, I'd be putting a sneaky tenner on a draw.
touches wood..nah. Heart has poor second half record and hasnt really looked likely.

Really decent half of football. Good width by the wide players has created a lot of space for them and the strikers
yep I agree, the players look up for it, folk like Leo and Lochy actually playing some football. I hope we don't get the usual 2nd half slump.
I LOVE LAMP

By all means be a hater. I'm not a huge fan of either of them but De Jong has made some decent points on the way we're played and how we're set up. He hasn't once said that it's ALL down to attitude, he's said it's part of it, which it quite obviously is.
Apparently I'm apathetic, but I couldn't care less.

Are we in an alternate universe. Our football team, is playing football. And its football that is working. No dumb passes, not a lot of dumb crosses, aimless long balls. I have to ask, am I in Back to the Future 4?

I saw a DeLorean parked on the Terrace a few years ago, true story, but it didn't have a flux capacitor.

Agreed.
Mohammed, on the left, I'm still in touch with. He's now living in Agadez, Niger. More focused on his animals now as tourism has dried up. Is active with a co-op promoting local goods, leather work and bijouterie, into Europe.

I can't recall Lochy ever running inside lanes as much as today. Looking good.

Now, you see, this is what I was worried about. The Heart have got their defence sorted out - they're getting about 7 or 8 people behind the ball when they're on defence, and we can only get about 4 attacking players up there. There's no way through the defence and we have to resort to hit-and-hope, like Iffy just did. As I say, the Heart can get right back in this if they can wear us out.

Gameiro really does need to tone down his aggression.....we dont want to have 10 on the field.

Sorry, Jag, but it doesn't matter if we play like Barcelona if the ball doesn't go in the net.

Nice to look at but requires a little more effort to complete the job...

Even Dewhurst can see that we're faffing around with it far too long in the penalty area and letting the Jamtards get organised.

Hit and hope? He took it past two players on the edge of the box and made room for the shot. If it had been on target the keeper wouldn't have had a sniff. I'd hardly call it hit and hope. If we play with the same patience we did in the first half, the chances will come, Only one team looks like winning this at the moment and it's not the Heart
