Neil is hated by Sunderland fans for fucking off to Stoke when he had got them promotion and recruited the team for the Championship. His team actually played really good football and up until him leaving the way he did their fans loved him.

Everyone wanted to Robson to succeed but reality is it was always unlikely he would given turnover of players in the summer and number of games to negotiate. This season screamed out for an experienced manager to be brought in. That failures on the FMB. Robson however has not helped himself with his stubbornness over tactics and selection of players. We have been a brutal watch for most of the season which with the players we have should not be happening. We look a poorly coached team. To be on less points after 20 games than we were last season should be enough to see the FMB act but not convinced they will.

I am getting to the stage where I do not want to attend games with VAR. It is killing the game.

Lost 5-3 tonight and 10 points behind in the league. Just getting it in before club confirm his exit?

Thankfully I had already stuck money on before he said that. Easy money. Hearts were shite today and not in the game today until VAR got involved. Like Wednesday neither were fouls. Like Wednesday Robsons subs cost us the game. Taking Barron off was the act of an incompetent buffoon much like it was on Wednesday. He should be sacked but won’t. As for the recruitment team they have 4 days to get in wingers. Suspect they won’t.

That would be my bet.

Hearts -1 is 3/1 with 365 for those interested.

If we are to have any chance of catching the Maroon spoon burners for 3rd then we have to win this one but just cannot see us doing it. Agree with Manc that Robson will use this game as an excuse to go to a 5 at the back again. If he does then Barron has to start beside Shinnie in the midfield and Clarkson moved further forward but would not surprise me if Robson drops Barron and keeps McGrath for the middle 3. Diets don’t look that good a side and if we were using the players we have in the correct manner I think we would be beating them on Saturday but don’t think Robson is capable of doing that which is very frustrating. In Pub away end Pub to numb the pain 2-0 no dons scorer

Ticket prices are decent as well. £15 will buy you your 6 loyalty points (£10 if you are an old bastard like Al) which will hopefully help boost the crowd.

Embarrassed to have got a point from that. Don’t think either VAR decisions was correct. Minimal contact at best for the penalty. We are a poorly coached side.

If it wasn’t so far to the nearest decent pub I would have left by now. Took Levien 10 minutes to figure us out. Lack of width is criminal. Would have Polvara off at half time as been particularly shite however Barry will wait until 67 minutes before bringing on Hayes or Morris.

They wouldn’t have found out if you hadn’t shared the links with them.

Agreed and I would probably include McGarry in there unless we can convert him to a left winger as just don’t see a defender in there.

He is on a season long loan at Millwall so probably need to be a summer move.

Press reports suggesting Vinnie is away back to Holland. Apologies for the source.

As soon as I hit submit. Hearts were better side in second half and probably deserved their win. VAR really needs punted though. Hearts given a penalty that even their own commentators said was for minimal contact. Every time the ball hit off someone in the box there was a VAR review. It’s killing the game.

Dundee currently 2-0 up at Tynecastle.

Would expect us to stick with same formation as Friday although might see Duk in for McGrath or Clarkson as we desperately need some width. Didn’t think we were particularly good on Friday creating little and Levien will have St Johnstone set up to defend in numbers. Not sure we will have the guile to break them down. In maybe depending on work Lift up hopefully North Stand Lift back to capital. Heart says 2-0 Miovski and Sokler head says 0-0.

Ayr United appoint Scott Brown and Steven Whittaker as management team. Always hated Ayr.

Two more games announced in June as build up to Euros.

Decent draw for us. Both Edinburgh sides with tricky away trips.

Celtic beat Buckie Thistle 5-0 earlier. Draw on BBC at 8:15pm

Results from todays 4th round fixtures. St Johnstone going out to Airdrie and Ross County going out to Partick were the big shocks. Great win for Bonnyrigg against Falkirk. Ties between Celtic v Buckie and Brora V Cove still to be played. Draw is tomorrow.

Could well be that level. As well as wages I think issue is with players like Johnston is that if the bigots do decide to sell then you are usually competing with English championship teams who can usually comfortably out bid us on transfer fees.
