This isn't true yet, is it?If Dundee win all four of their games, and St Mirren win their three which aren't against Dundee, and we lose all of ours, then Dundee would be a point ahead of us and St Mirren level on points.

Interesting to see that the amount of errors made by VAR is increasing. Kind of pisses all over those in favour of it that say it will get better with time.
Also seems to make a bit of a mockery of our appeals system. One of the decisions that have been highlighted as being wrong was a red card shown to Sterling against Aberdeen. We actually appealed that and the appeal was thrown out. Now it’s being said that was incorrect.
Shambles.
Whole thing is absolutely pointless, and the IRP as a concept is so obviously flawed a five-year old could pick holes in it.

Hearts can no longer qualify for next seasons Champions League
Naismith surely cannot survive this.

I've seen some fine performances on this board, but @Kyle Reese has managed, between Saturday and now, to firstly whip the Hibs and Aberdeen fans into a seething frenzy of tears, and now has the Celtic fans quite rightly put in their place and on the run.
It's excellent work, but this is no time to get complacent and to rest on your laurels. I'd like to see the fans of every club in the league antagonised by the weekend.
Except Livi. Leave them for me, please. It could be a special week.

Plus, when beating Hibs at Hampden becomes a major honour, we will be more decorated than Real Madrid.
They're the only other c***s we ever play at Hampden apart from the OF. It's been them, the OF and one game against ICT in the last decade.
We're due a wee diddy team in a semi. Wee-er and diddy-er than Hibs, that is.

In 20/21 we beat the 3rd placed side in both competitions, at the Semi and Final stage, won at Ibrox, and Aberdeen/Celtic were the only teams of the top 6 we never beat, with us also beating the sides who finished 7th and 8th.
There's plenty of teams who only draw the OF once in a cup completion, it's not notable enough to keep track of because they always fail to win both trophies. The idea we're "lucky" because that was our draw is stupid when the reality is other clubs get "lucky" that way all the time but don't capitalise.
Oh, plenty draw them once. But few (none I can think of) draw them once across three cup runs. Denying that that is a lucky run is bizarre.
You got some breaks and ran with it, no need to be so defensive.

Be worth it just to see some rancid mhank from Midlothian all over STV News for getting himself a leathering whilst drunk and angry in the Dalkeith high street.
Now, come on. Celtic and their supporters are famous for embracing defeat and adversity in a level-headed and sporting manner.

Like I say, it doesn't match St Johnstone's wins but as an overall record I'd say it runs them close given our respective opponents in the finals.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Motherwell_F.C._seasons
Cup runs in general are a poor indicator of how a club is doing, as they tend to be based on decent draws. That's the same for all of our clubs, and St Johnstone's three cup wins only really include one Big Result; beating Rangers in the cup in 2021 on penalties. If you look through their cup wins, the draws were kind overall and they had three rounds of semis and finals where they never played the OF. It's hard to think of another club that has had opportunities like that. Nobody else I can think of has had a run of getting to semis and constantly avoiding the Old Firm. But, they still won, so fair's fair.
St Johnstone's league form over that period is the far more impressive thing. And it's arguable that Motherwell's spell of 40 years in the top flight is pound for pound the most impressive performance in Scottish football. Especially as it also includes a cup win (beat Celtic in the semi) and some other finals, second places etc.

Winning twice in a season at Parkhead is exceptionally unlikely, so I'm keeping my thirty-odd quid in my pocket on this occasion.
One of these games where there's not a lot in it for us, so it would be magnificent to win just for the fucking sake of it and see the Celtic fans fucking spewing.

Utter UTTER bollocks
Any decade that includes an administration & a relegation (or is it two?) is a total embarrassment & a permanent massive blot on your history.
Yet, here we are.
We're in a miles better place than Aberdeen any way you cut it.

Except it’s an entirely hyperbolic post which doesn’t really reflect reality.
The club rid itself of the debt that had been hanging over us for years, attracted plenty new investment and built a training ground in that period.
We reached a point where performances on the pitch plateaued as we lost players and the lack of recruitment infrastructure and short term thinking on the pitch came to bite. We’ve tried to address that in the last few years (yes, at times hilariously badly) but broadly that infrastructure is moving in the right direction. I think we’ve tried to do too much too quickly and made a complete arse of a lot of it in the process.
I mean, I’m sure there was a club in recent times that changed the structure of their football department, introduced a new model, signed about 40 players every window, hired all sorts of managers including their director of football and got relegated in the process. I’m told that club is now miles ahead of everybody at everything.
This isn’t a prediction that everything works out great for us, but the work done to sort out the balance sheet and infrastructure of the club whilst performing well has allowed a platform for progression. Whether we take it or not is up for debate for now, your characterisation of us though is based in reality but laced with hyperbole and your hopes for how this plays out.
I don't think hyperbole is really fair.
Aberdeen have been bottom six two years in three. The general trend for them is poor. They've repeatedly made bad decisions, and off the pitch they have an enormous problem that their rivals don't have. Every other "big" Scottish club has hit historically poor performance when addressing stadium issues, and Aberdeen have that still to come. Maybe they buck the trend in that regard, but nothing about how the club is run suggests that'll be the case.
Aberdeen finished ahead of us and we had to take that on the chin for a bit, which wasn't enjoyable. But I think in the long-term, we'll be seen to have had a better last decade.
Of course I hope Aberdeen have a bad decade. It would be very funny. But it's far from purely wishful thinking, as any sober observer can see.

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.
I've not posted about Aberdeen for ages.
You can engage with the post of ignore the post. What grinds the forum to a halt is poor responses along the lines of what we've seen above.
I stand by the post, by the way. I think it's an entirely fair picture of Aberdeen's situation. I think you'll struggle to keep up with Hearts and Hibs over the next decade due to your failure to make hay while the sun shone. And I was reponding to people on here referencing your good run over us and putting it in context.
You did have it over us for quite a while. But what do you have to show for it? Aberdeen were asleep at the wheel while Hearts and Hibs were getting stuff done.

Ok. In the last 12 seasons Aberdeen have finished higher than Hearts 10 times.
In the last 10 seasons Aberdeen have finished 2nd four times, with Hearts on zero.
In the last 121 years Aberdeen have never been relegated, Hearts have been countless times.
In the last 121 years Aberdeen have beaten Rangers countless times at Hampden, Hearts have never done that.
If you want to concentrate on the last three years, that's your perogative.
That's great if you are in a bad mood and want to make the chat silly.
We're takking about Aberdeen's current direction. They're not hiring this guy a decade ago.
Things have changed around Aberdeen and they are starting to see the consequences of not making the most of their opportunity ten years ago.

That's great for you to cling on to, but we're not in administration now, we're not recovering from that any more, and we're no longer throwing loads of money and resources at building a new stand. You did have the better of us for a few years, but we've come out of that with a completed modern stadium and a club that's on a sure footing with a proper infrastructure, and we're about to play group stage football for the second time in three years.
Aberdeen have nothing to show for that period, even in the medium term. It's been wasted. You built nothing and now you're in danger of being left behind. In terms of status, you're looking like you've regressed to the world before Hearts, Hibs, and Rangers imploded.
Aberdeen have now been third in the league once in the last six seasons (already looking more luck than judgement). They've been in the bottom half of the league two years out of three. They've repeatedly shown poor leadership, poor judgement, and a total lack of strategy. Since Hearts were promoted we've (so far) out-performed Aberdeen by 43 points in less than three seasons. It's hard to argue that it looks like there's been a large momentum swing from you to us.
Aberdeen might bounce back next year. This guy might do a good job. You can never really tell. But it's unarguable at the moment that Aberdeen's purple patch is beginning to look very much like a window of opportunity that has now closed, and been absolutely squandered, to no real long-term impact.

I see that on Booking.com the Killie hotel has a risible rating of 8.8.
With our hotel's 9.6 rating (EXCEPTIONAL), we really should be swatting this mob aside.
Hearts win or Naismith out.

according to the athletic…San Siro is unique in the sense that it actually has three dressing rooms. One for Inter, one for Milan and the other for an away team. The Inter dressing room has a lot more space, whereas Milan’s dressing room is more compact.
If I was the Inter kit man, I'd lock the Milan dressing room then just take the keys up the road with me.
Next Milan home game - CHAOS.
Fucking beautiful. What a plan.

I'm putting this on my suggestion card for next season. Bottom Six teams disgust me, and we shouldn't have to hold our noses while witnessing their petty squabbles at this time of the year.
