Wasn’t specifically a response to your post as there were other comments of us being poor.

I would have thought the first line of my post gave context to the rest of it? I never said we had a poor game. I said we were poor for the first 20 minutes, and that was in the context of how our expectations have risen compared to what we have had to experience over the last few seasons. Im not sitting here unhappy with our days work. Quite the contrary.

A good defence wins titles!

Of course. I think we notice it more when we are having so much possession, but if you watch a Man City game for example, even a beast of a goal machine like Haaland misses his fair share of "easy" chances. I remember when Roberto Baggio broke the transfer fee world record. We played Italy in a World Cup qualifier (at Ibrox) and he was put through clear on goal with enough time to pick his spot. He almost put it out for a shy.

He has missed two sitters now

Hearts should be at least 4 up.

The defence tightening at the right time for our league challenge 😉

Even the best strikers miss sitters. Oh dear shankland what a miss.

If we adopt a similar approach to the Hibs game, by applying pressure to their defence, we have a chance. That continues to be their weak spot.

Without the officials they would be sitting bottom six. Set pieces and officials is all they seem to have. They certainly give up alot of space for teams to exploit.

Big laddies but the poorest Rangers team I have seen in my 50+ years. when their full back is the most dangerous player they have you know that they have problems. they are there for the taking.

Seems Rangers are a set piece team. Some big laddies in the team.

We need a very fast mobile striker with abit of presence. Problem with that is every team, apart from maybe Hearts, are looking for a striker. Would be good to get players in early in the window.

I’m hoping Fernandez will get a red and Moore gets injured.

Theres the difference between the top teams this season. Hearts front two score goals. They have also had a fair bit of luck. The pressure will be really on Rangers next week if they do get beat today. They cant afford to lose against us.

Rangers absolutely caving in… really interesting and also really funny

Nice goal from Hearts. Rangers main threat seems to be Fernandez from set pieces and beat player looks to be Moore. im sure JBA will be more in depth than me 😂

A draw would be a good result for us and I think a draw in the other game would suit me too. Means Aberdeen aren’t picking up 3 points and getting closer and I don’t want Celtic to jump 5 points ahead of us.

And that would leave us still above Rangers on GD.

I agree. Its very very difficult to play against a team who are set up to keep 10 men behind the ball and be so negative. They were literally time wasting (i believe one of the players got booked for it) the entire 2nd half Just horrid to watch

Not sure how I want their game today to end up. Maybe a draw ao both drop two points?

Poor is a bit harsh, we didnt play as well as we can but still dominated the game.

As much as I detest Ross, his political views, his party and his weird hatred of seagulls. He’s actually not a bad linesman

Thought it was interesting thst Douglas Ross was running the line on the main stand side as I'm sure he's been on the other side anytime I've seen him. Maybe shielding him from the baying mob in the East stand. He did have a bit of banter with the guys in the wheelchair shelter though and a shake of his head when the Dundee guy (17?) literally threw himself against Koutroumbis and got the foul.

Neither are they.
