Heart of Midlothian FC Thread

In their encounters, Rangers have taken all nine points since van Bronckhorst was appointed (10 v 1 on goals), so they should be overwhelming favourites. They'll be emotionally drained from their exertions in Spain, of course, but they have greater strength in depth and, unlike 1998, Hearts have key injuries in key positions. Suspect it will be more 1976 than 1996, though any victory will likely be scant consolation for Rangers after coming so close in Europe.
 
Rangers are massive favourites. The gulf is there to see, but it’s a one off and we both have been fucked by teams who on paper shouldn’t have a look in. Can’t see anything other than a Rangers win.

I'd normally agree with you MP, but it's been a massively draining week, both physically and mentally. To have to play 120 minutes & penalties in that heat, with the game not finishing until after midnight, then fly back Thursday, Jimmy Bells funeral yesterday, not sure what preparations can be done in that time. Should be a good leveler.

There is all that and I agree it’s been a shift, I just think it will be you who lift it, but having said that, even if you didn’t have the week you have , hearts could still do it if it’s their day. It’s possible, but for me unlikely. I’m sad to say. :)
 
Disappointed
Matched them for an hour
Held on for 90 then slumped
Can’t have any complaints. The Hearts midfield seemed incapable of retaining possession, particularly once Boyce was withdrawn, and neither fullback looked comfortable in defence. The gap in resources in Scotland is widening and it will only become more uncompetitive, and alas unattractive, as a consequence.
