paranoid android Posted May 16, 2023 Share Posted May 16, 2023 (edited) Think third place went North a while ago. Think this will be a score draw - Desmond 2-2. Page 2, and no mention of Jim Bett.

Suspect Device Posted May 16, 2023 Share Posted May 16, 2023 Good to see that it's been announced as PPV as well. Even though I think we're going to lose, I still want to see it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With 5 points separating the 2 sides in the race for 3rd, a Hearts win will keep things interesting going into the final 2 games. A draw would see Aberdeen almost over the finishing line, while a Dons win would see them confirmed in 3rd place with 2 games to spare. As huge a game as this is for Hearts mind you, it could mean **** all by next Wednesday unless our pals from Paisley do us a favour up in the granite city, but one step at a time. The away side hasn't won this fixture since May 2017, and that was Aberdeen at Tynecastle. Just don't **** it up now Hearts, please. "Our pals from Paisley " ! Nah.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye. Even if we win this, they'll beat St Mirren no bother. As soon as that fixture got reversed to Pittodrie it was done. Get fourth tied up and have a more manageable summer is now the main thing.

I know this is turning into a game of ‘naw you guys will win’ here, but there’s no certainty/evidence that we’ll beat st Mirren comfortably. If we lose this weekend then that becomes a very high pressure game against a team playing with little pressure and who have already beaten us twice. Also that’s all on the presumption you’ll lose at ibrox which is no certainty either. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With nothing to play for, it's about time they return the favour. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see how the St Mirren game becomes a nervy one if you lose on Saturday, but from where we sit now, disregarding everything else, all you have to do is win what is on paper the easiest top six game and you finish third. If that game was in Paisley, I'd fancy Hearts from here. But it isn't. There'll be a big crowd, there'll be a big bonus on offer, and they'll win the game. I can actually see a situation where we get a result at Ibrox. It's not likely, but it wouldn't shock me either. But I think we all accept the much more likely scenario is that Aberdeen beat St Mirren at home and Hearts lose at Ibrox. Any other outcome apart from Aberdeen finishing third needs at least one of two eyebrow-raising results as well as Hearts beating Aberdeen on Saturday. It's done.

I think the circumstances feed into the game on Saturday. Hearts are going into it knowing that even three points leaves us with a trip to Ibrox while Aberdeen have the most favourable fixture they could possibly have, probably wiping out any gains from Saturday. An element of running to stand still. I'll be interested to see, but I think we might see a slightly off the boil Hearts on Saturday. As I said, I think it would change the picture were Aberdeen going to Paisley. In that scenario I'd really fancy Hearts to put the pressure on. The last couple of performances have been much better in general terms. Edited May 16, 2023 by VincentGuerin 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrewDon Posted May 16, 2023 Share Posted May 16, 2023 It's at Tynecastle so Hearts will almost certainly win. I am most concerned about our midfield here - this is exactly the type of battle and occasion that Shinnie can make a big difference, like in the 3-0 game at Pittodrie. Hibs frankly controlled us in there on Saturday without too much sweat. I would like Barron to come in to try and give us more of a foothold, and also a bit more composure in possession, but I don't have a clue what the situation is with him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jobby1 Posted May 16, 2023 Share Posted May 16, 2023 Don't want Coulson at right wing back, not fair on him. Has to play Baron but probably won't. Can't see anything other than a Hearts win but hope I am wrong . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
