PauloPerth Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 A Cup tie between last season's 3rd and 4th placed teams in the top league for a place in the quarter finals. Hearts being the seeded team due to getting papped out of Europe by a team of Maltesers, whilst St Johnstone were unseeded due to winning their group comfortably in the first round. Usually good competitive games between the sides, plenty of goals in last season's encounters with the exception of a 0-0 pumping 10 man Hearts managed to scrape at McD just before Xmas, which saw Steve Maclean become the first man to send a penalty kick into space. A similar tactic might serve the Jambos well here, as our penalty taking has continued to be dreadful, with the exception of Danny Swanson. We haven't had a big midweek domestic Cup tie at McDiarmid for a few years (that I can remember..?) so it should be a great night with a decent crowd. No tv cameras will hopefully entice more non-regulars along. cue Hearts fan to post laughing Mourinho face in 3, 2, 1 ..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One would assume the onus is on the home side to take the lead in this matter. If they'd originally said £10 for this absolute nothing game I doubt there would have been much protest.

tree house tam Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 Wonder if Saints are giving £2 from each admission to save the Hearts, again. Diddy club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 TBF considering our own club refused to accept a cut-price admission for ourselves against Brechin, I imagine we demanded at least £18 as the ticket price. Not looking forward to this after today, another 90 minutes of two teams hoofing the ball between centre halves sounds utterly thrilling. In terms of line ups it could go anyway, Liam surely has to drop out but Muzz probably pulled a muscle at some point today so will be ruled out. Maybe see Kane on from the start too.

Tony Wonder Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 2-1 to Hearts, Watt to get off the mark and Craig to get it tight for 90 minutes from the 800 away fans who can be arsed travelling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Liam Craig plays he's gonna get it tight from the 800 home fans who could be bothered, he was that shite yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we get through this round and into the quarters, then I'll have a good deal of interest in this tournament. As it is, it's still early August and it simply feels like a total meh game. Actually think we'll win this now. Well, quite simply, Neilson has to as another early cup exit going into our game at Pittodrie at the weekend will see him under a tonne of pressure.
