It started outside the box but he was still all over Duk as they moved into the box. Stone Wall pen all day long Surely they'd have to check to see if it went in the box ??

It was outside. Should definitely have been checked though and been a foul. WWE stuff.

Defended for our lives again and eventually something was going to break our run at the back . Can't rely on a miracle from Duk every week. Although we did come close a couple of times. I've said for a few weeks that we've been carrying luck ( and by proxy momentum . It'll be interesting to see if we can pick it up again next week. I'd like to see us try to get up the pitch a bit more as it's not only Ibrox where we've relied on Wonder saves and last ditch tackles. You might want to frame this next bit but I have to say that miovski looks to have improved dramatically since Jim left. I've gave him a kicking for being a horse many times but it looks like with a bit of direction he might be a player Not sure what Duncan brings to the team today but otherwise decent enough shift from the whole team. Some of the decisions that weren't looked at today by VAR were outrageous. I hope the club are compiling an email as I type.

Do you think we ever practice corners?? They're fucking awful.

That's a gutter. Hoping we could end their hopes ourselves

I rarely criticise refs but this first half has been awful. Getting nothing.

He's done brilliantly and nobody can really argue that he didn't earn a chance. Five games to go though against the top sides mean I'd rather the club had waited. What happens if we get five pastings? Does this mean that attacking football is binned next season for pragmatism? ( Not that we've seen much attacking this year ) Or do we expect Barry to entertain?

Absolutely on the money for me. All these fans insulted at £2m must be watching someone else. Also disappointed Barron hasn't had more chance to play. Future international for me.

Back 5 outstanding last minute defending again. Took it to them second half. Had a couple of scares but thought we generally looked most likely. Lucky or good, Baz has exceeded his remit. I think the board will still hang on until the end of the season but hard to argue against him now. It's maybe not pretty but nobody can deny the change in effort and commitment to his cause from the squad. Biggest plus though.. hearts will be fucking gutted

Our passing is atrocious. That said, we've survived that half ( just ) Do we have a go second half or expect more of the same?

As I said last week. I think we've rode out luck a bit in recent weeks. Hopefully the last ditch tackles and saves can continue but I've got a lurking feeling that our lack of quality might well bite us as we spend the game on the 18yd line. That said if we break away and duk does duk stuff. We might scrape another victory. Hard to call 1-0 us or a doing, It's one of those.

I was just reading another article about miovski and Duk and proposed value. Now I'm maybe being harsh because I've never rated the guy but miovski to me is little more than competent. He's no better than Watkins really. Rarely scores from open play and his hold up is poor ( although looks to be improving since Jim left ) I'd take Cosgrove back in a heartbeat to replace him Duk however will be a club legend and I don't expect him to be here next year. Provided the right money comes in. It just bugs me how miovski is being talked up. Clearly Dave after another sale. I can't be the only one?

Absolutely agree. He's done fantastically but sometimes it's better to be lucky than good and in the last three weeks we've scraped results by the leather of Kelle's gloves. That doesn't work long term. However he did say after the game that we can be more expansive and play football too. Then stressed that for now we need to work, run and grab points. I think that unless we have a disaster post split he has to get the gig but like you I think that still have a big call to make. It's also given him a great addition to the CV whatever happens

Have to say, I thought he was off as soon as he went into the tackle. There was just no need at that stage and in that position to Dive in there.

Probably missed something but Barron seems to have fallen out of the picture. Is he injured or just out of favour?

I have to say that I think he's been miles better than Maddison ever was for us and agree that he's potentially a top top player. That said, I can't see him in their squad next year. It'd be great to have him back but I think he might be fired to the championship.

Couple of good passes early on. What are the noises about him after this season?

We've been rotten. Thank God for Duk. Concerning over the last three games how many last ditch tackles and saves we've needed . ( Fair play to the boys at the back because we'd have been three down under Goodwin) Feel like Duk's run of form is papering over some cracks and we might get spanked when the currant buns turn up. Here's hoping for a more convincing second half.

He did take a shite Liverpool from years of mediocrity to within a whiff of the title surrounded by bigger spending clubs at the time. He's won silverware at Leicester who surely don't have the third biggest budget in England. By comparison our gig is a walk in the park. That said. If we were paying him our budget wouldn't be much

Ocht tam, such a cynic. Can you imagine the fitba, doing angeball better than Ange. No manager lasts forever but a treble treble would be nice before he went.

Just seen Brendan is free. If only we could afford him.

Good three points. Rotten game to watch. Devoid of cutting edge against ten men. Hayes, rama and both centre halves really the only players that turned up today. Felt watkins probably deserved more time as bojan again offered very little threat. McGowan did a good job on Duk to be fair.

Our pass completion rate versus hearts was in the low 50s. It's far from flowing football. However I'll concede that we also seem more competitive. As a decent striker into the mix and I'm not unhappy with the set up

Our pass completion % is still horrible but the improvement in work rate is getting results. Fair play to Robson. I didn't have much faith in him but himself and Agnew have turned around a squad of bottlers in jig time. He probably deserves at least a few more games to see if the level can be maintained.

Has miovski actually had a touch yet? Still can't believe we let Ramirez go. Thank God Duk is on fire
