topcat(The most tip top) Posted November 14, 2023 Share Posted November 14, 2023 Levein's absence from top level Scottish football may not have lasted quite as long as the Beatles absence from the charts but both made headlines by dramatically returning to the spotlight lately and what was once a regular league game now has a sub plot Levein's Saints were apparently well worth their win against Ross county and the feel good factor around Perth means that demand for tickets has soared to the point where only Saints Season Ticket Holders can be sure of getting briefs to follow their team to Edinburgh Meanwhile in the Capital spirits have taken a dip after two games against Rangers and one against Celtic where we've struggled to lay a glove on our opponents but while we haven't caused any upsets of late it's also a while since we were on the wrong end of one so measured optimism seems in order. This isn't going to be remembered as one of the great Hearts sides but it may yet be a good one From experience a Levein side away to notionally stronger opponents would normally be expected to set up cautiously and defensively but surely he won't take that idea to the extremes that Livingston did the other week. Nonetheless this could be a similar test of patience 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyle Reese Posted November 18, 2023 Share Posted November 18, 2023 I think Levein will do a good job there. He did a decent job with United, but his all out control methods were possibly a bit less effective at a bigger club. I wish him well in every game that does not affect us. I predict a narrow Hearts victory with Shankland scoring one and Boyce another. 2-1 the good guys. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fife Saint Posted November 19, 2023 Share Posted November 19, 2023 (edited) Just had to check the history books there and can confirm Hearts have never won a double. Edited November 19, 2023 by Fife Saint 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VincentGuerin Posted November 19, 2023 Share Posted November 19, 2023 I share a season ticket with two mates. This match is very much a case of "You take it.". "I couldn't possibly, it's not my turn". "Oh, it can't be my turn again already." I've actually gone to the length of booking a theatre trip with the missus to ensure I can't be battered into taking this one. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyle Reese Posted November 19, 2023 Share Posted November 19, 2023 I am missing this one because the missus has a birthday spa weekend. I would have actually quite liked to have gone! Be nice to see another home win this season, and this seems like one we might just about squeak. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted November 19, 2023 Share Posted November 19, 2023 I dont know why Hearts fans expect anything other than a 1-0 Saints win, McGowan scoring after a Clark howler, with Levein smirking after the game and suggesting himself to replace Naismith. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First season trying it. Enjoying it so far. It's nice having the obligation to go all the time removed and I reckon I enjoy the games I go to more now. We've generally agreed who's going when in terms of the big games and there are certain dates we've all booked IN or OUT. Would recommend. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds good I just need to find 2 pals before next seasons season tickets go on sale. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
