Will he be as awesome as Neil MacFarlane. Only time will tell.

Paying builders up front in Britain is not very clever if you want the job done right and even remotely on time.

We seem to depend on the punters in hospitality to do the singing these. Next plan for Ann Budge is to give gratis tickets to guest choirs during the Edinburgh Festival? They just have to sing The Europe Song five minutes into each half. Preferably in a manly fashion. There is of course more to atmosphere than singing. There is still plenty buzz.

I would say that it is true that Hearts have a less vocal nutjob element these days. As for derby rivalry the clubs have to be in the same league surely?

I dont have a problem with adopting a defensive posture if the counter attacking is working out well, but it has been rubbish for a while.

Outs: Gomis King (loan) Alexander McGhee (loan) El Hass Reilly (loan) Ins: Rherras Gallacher Noring Sammon Watt (loan) Muirhead Have l missed any?

Interesting prospect. Loves to score against Hibs and St Mirren.

Ditto.

Now is not the easiest time to sign up free agents as many of the good ones hold back until later to broker the best deal. Clearing the decks in preparation can present problems unless the players are decent. Which Gomis and King are. No such luck with El Hass and Oshaniwa.

The general assumption is that Alexander still wants to play regularly.

He has basically got to the end of this window to show that he has the ability and maturity.

Take a wash you smelly tramp?In my experience on this forum you don't give the impression of being a particularly pongy individual.

I know. Thank god Falkirk FC were up to their task in restoring normality.

ICT away now 5th April. Celtic, ICT and Aberdeen over 6 days. Will need a little bit a squad rotation.

Would need to win at least 9 out of 10, including beating Celtic twice IMO.

Was thinking the same. Odds slashed at bookmakers. Now 1 to 2 on!

Partick Thistle are one of Scotland's cuddlier clubs, so qualify for free buses occasionally.

I think Hibs is the best move for the lad. Stubbs will definitely get the most out of him. Star for the future IMO.

Hmm? Won Hearts's man of the match on his debut in tonights win against Ross County. At center half.

Supposed to be quite versatile I thought. Time will tell where he ends up in his new team.

School's out. Defence should be stronger. Midfield and forward might be weaker.However if the reported million is true, sensible business.

As things stand we have 2 keepers, 6 defenders, 6 midfielders and 4 forwards in the first team. A bit skinny IMO. Suspensions and injuries could present us with probs.

I'm not sure what the fuss is here. Loaning a player to help out against your traditional rival is something Celtic have been doing all season. It shows how far we have come that we can afford to do that.

I suspect that language/culture acclimatisation is possibly an issue? Should improve over time.

We have been fine without him. Not saying he isn't a good player, but don't think we have seen the best from him.
