Killie one behind us so big game on Wednesday.  Though I would prefer that than being at dens for Dundee v Ross Co, that will be stressful 

Definitely will be , I am still kinda hoping St Johnstone catch one of them just because of Simo Simo Simo 

I think they have left it far too late though

Kilmarnock winning we could end up dropping 2 places and significant money.

It'll be us v Killie for 8th place. It was always going to be that way. Wednesday was always going to be an important game in that respect. 

As for today's result It is what it is. Hopefully it will help Herr Wimmer in assessing his squad for next season. A good start would be to build a new defence. That said, probably only one of them, Casey, would start if we had a full complement of defenders, which we don't. Short term pain  long term gain.

We have played the better football, but as usual pathetic defending costs us. 

Ref is a clown. Hearts can kick our players and get away with it. 

You and I definitely watch different games. At no point today did I think we played the better football. We played virtually no football. Although Hearts were pish they were better than us. I lost count today how many times , when under zero pressure we passed the ball straight to a Hearts player. We picked up no second balls and the less said about our defending the better. We were garbage from first ball to last. I'm afraid if MW thinks he only needs 3 or 4 players he is in for a rude awakening.

Nowt wrong with criticising a bad performance,  I just feel every defeat and it's panic stations. Summer transfer window will be interesting 

Indeed. And it’s going to be an important summer for us which hopefully we do well in transfer business wise.

Don't think we do. Excluding the usual culprits, we played the ball about, especially defence to midfield. Compare this to the hoof ball under Kettlewell. Midfield to attacking areas let us down. Once the 2nd and 3rd goal went in, we were beat and heads went down understandably. I agree we need more than 4 players. The Midfield with Slattery needs addressed. The defence is a shambles. Same players making same mistakes. We do need a squad, but any player we sign going forward should be a starter.

I think we played ok for the first 25 mins or so - then it all went to pot

Wimmer apparently has to go according to some folk on Facebook tonight

As much as SODs might be nice guy, and the players might like him as a person, the number of important goals he’s cost us over his time with the club is significant. Can’t believe he got another years contract. Hells bells. 

I think there was an option on his contract; maybe if he played X amount of games, which he's done due to the amount of injuries we've suffered.

Agree - SOD is never a centre half, at best a wing back but now has no pace and can't get up the flanks. He's there to fill in for McGinn who's injured, who both get contracts and we'll rinse and repeat the same again next year.

I worry that a few of the signings got a contract for being 'nice guys'  rather than footballers who will make the team better.

SOD is shite and should be nowhere near the starting eleven next season. The rest of the defence can go and we build around McGinn and Gordon. 

😂

Build around two guys, one of whom has been central to this season's dodgy defence and another who has been injured for the majority of this season and is 35 in October. Still better them than bombscare Casey...

Wimmer might not have any say in extensions but by Christ he has a say in the Tony Watts of the world.I can't believe folk on here saying offer terms why cause he had two decent games this whole season.I have seen folk say offer Thompson terms good god people that's utter mental.

There is a reason we are in the position we are Kettlewell and injuries can't be blamed for everything.

What's next Callaghan because he has been fantastic on the physio table a real asset to the club.
