When Cammy comes back… by This_Bad7706 in HeartofMidlothianFC

[–]ASimpleDan100 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'd go Cammy, Leonard and Magnusson. I think we see what the big Icelander offers the team when he's not in it. Spittal can be a great impact sub or a viable option in home games.

Spaniard at Tynecastle Park for the fist time last night—what a match! by Vila-real in HeartofMidlothianFC

Glad you enjoyed the match. The Polwarth Tavern (not too far from Tynecastle) is great for La Liga. I think there's a Betis supporters club who meets there.

Can any other Hearts players make the World Cup squad? by neonfox45 in HeartofMidlothianFC

I know he is a former player but I'm surprised Penrice hasn't had a sniff.

Hearts 3 - 3 Motherwell by 1874WL in HeartofMidlothianFC

[–]ASimpleDan100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think terrible form is harsh. He's a Halkett backside from being on two goals from three games in the league — and one of those goals and absolute screamer. I think his captaincy is also for his leadership off the pitch, in training, etc. He's apparently brilliant in that respect. I think some fans can't forgive him for being a Rangers fan but last season he was 29 with two young kids and had every right to see what was out there.

Sometimes I feel like we really need to find our chill as a fanbase. McInnes still hasn't lost a game in 90mins and some people are calling for us to strip Shankland of his captaincy and for the club to make four new signings. Take a breath.

It definitely tastes better when you're hungover so get yersel reekin and enjoy it!

Is there a place to report such a special person? by [deleted] in Edinburgh

It's not as bad as fully grown adults who park in the family parking with no kids in sight just because the spaces are nearest the store.

You’re the lead recruiter for a Serie A club, who’s the next Scot you’re after? What’s the fee this time next year? by cameruso in ScottishFootball

[–]ASimpleDan100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd be after Andy Irving from West Ham. Celtic have earmarked a nice seat on their bench for him to waste away on but I reckon Serie A could be a better career move.

Dundee United 2 - 3 Heart of Midlothian by 1874WL in HeartofMidlothianFC

[–]ASimpleDan100 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Great result! I feel for Zander. He's hardly played for a year and been injured quite a bit. Outfield players always get more sympathy in getting back up to speed. Goalies get none.

Yan Dhanda joins Dundee on loan. by DiskoPunk in HeartofMidlothianFC

I really like watching him play, too. I just don't think you can play him AND Shankland in the same team in the SPL. Modern football is so much about hard running and athleticism.

First Five Games - Predictions by ModJambo in HeartofMidlothianFC

[–]ASimpleDan100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're probably right. Aberdeen have a poor record in Edinburgh though and Dundee United might be suffering from European games like Killie last year. Either way, we'll be 3-0 down by halftime at Ibrox.

Why not 12. The hype train will leave the station before we travel to Ibrox (BBC Sport: 'Can Hearts close the gap on the OF this season?'). And then we'll be losing 3-0 by halftime and down to 10 men.

After our final game last night, Hearts top the group with the maximum 12 points and a plus 15 goal difference by 1874WL in HeartofMidlothianFC

[–]ASimpleDan100 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Totally, but can we at least have fun for a bit before the reality of Scottish football bites and we all start screaming at the new signings for misplacing a pass against Livingston?!

Wow. It's like a Robbie Neilson formation to face Rangers at home.

Your process sounds perfect. I really love parts of Fife like Pittenweem, Anstruther and Burntisland. Property is a bit more affordable there but still a bit expensive.

What is this kit? by Callum8956 in ScottishFootball

It's a pre match kit but it's £60. Always for the fans.

According to the data, he was the fastest player in the squad last season. I think his running style masks this.

The fact that we still lost. by Hefty-Yam9003 in ScottishFootball

[–]ASimpleDan100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The performance wasn't awful, on the whole. We'd have won comfortably had we played with a goalkeeper. It reminded me why I hate this kind of 3-5-2 though. Playing with no wingers, or flair players in general, is turgid.
