Although let's not forget that we were cost-cutting in the early noughties whilst Hearts were going through their financial doping spell so this 9-4 score is a bit skewed isn't it! Additionally, Hearts weren't even in the league for the same amount of time as Aberdeen since the split began because of two relegations.

The guy bottom right is Stevie Gray. Brian Mitchell has the girl sitting on his knee. Stevie Gray died in 2009. I'm not sure of the cause; however, he would occasionally appear in my local back in the 1990s and he got involved in drugs. I think it was acknowledged that he lost his way when Fergie left.

The post on isolation is reasonable to an extent; however, this is about your 500th post on how Hearts are so much better than Aberdeen. Did an Aberdeen girl break your heart or something? You need to let it go and move on.

Sokler let one bounce in our box on Saturday. It came to nothing as he pumped it out the park but my heart skipped a beat.

With Stephane Demol, who died suddenly last summer.

I don't know how Jimmy Thelin will get on; however, we should just ensure that Peter Leven remains at the club. I know he wasn't keen on the gig full time; however, he's impressed and might one day be the man. That would certainly tick the succession planning box.

Indeed, I was 'tired and emotional' when typing that post, it had been a long day although I did find Duk and Morris work rate infuriating at the game...they both seemed to be successfully avoiding any interaction with the ball. Although calling Duk a 'shitebag' was dramatic nonsense. For me, they along with Roos were the only players that disappointed me on Saturday. Roos for that incident with the cramp and giving his own inexperienced team mate a excruciatingly long wait to take his penalty, when he could've shuffled off to the side and then received treatment and delayed their next taker.

Russell Anderson eventually carved out a career of being an excellent last ditch blocker and tackler after being caught out positionally. Gartenmann played a fine game yesterday epitomised by that beautiful take down and cross field pass he made to Hoilett for the third goal. I think his biggest problems this season have came when partnering with Jensen.

I made the mistake of visiting 'The Hat' and it's a piley on Shayden Morris. I won't deny that he did nothing apart from one cross but that one effort was more than that shitebag Duk did on the whole 70 minutes he was on the park

I was wrong, I didn't think Thelin was a remote possibility and I'm still slightly curious why he decided to make the move. I do hope he is now given a proper opportunity to build a squad over two or three seasons before we start judging him. However, I suppose most fans will back him even without immediate winning runs if we can see that he knows what he's doing, unlike the previous Cormack men.

They could both be in Serie B by the time he arrives. It surprises me because I don't think he's good enough but I would view this interest as more the produce of the Lewis Ferguson effect with more Italian clubs thinking they can unearth a Scottish gem. I thought similar when Calvin Ramsey went to Liverpool for that ridculously over-inflated price for a lad that hadn't even proved himself at Aberdeen, and seemed to struggle to complete a full game. I put that down to the Andy Robertson effect (see also Nathan Patterson's move to Everton). It would be a hard gig for Barron in the lower reaches of Serie A.

You will have turned to drink by the time you come to use the ST....I'm afraid 2024/25 will be another 'transitional season'. Although that might mean transitioning to a Championship club.

When I were lad we all played 4-3-3 (right-back, left-back, centre-half, sweeper, right and left sided midfielders, centre mid, right and left wingers and a centre forward). It's everything you need in a formation, well balanced, defensive cover and attacking threat from both wings.

Aberdeen won't pay the compo NI wants and O'Neill doesn't fancy it anyway, but he's quite happy for the speculation to continue to see if more interesting offers from other clubs appear as he puts out the signals that he wants to move back to club football. I really don't understand why there's still chatter about Michael O'Neill.

I see there's still chatter that Michael O'Neil is the man that's "very close" ; however, I've heard that he wasn't interested...
