In my defence I also said that we should've played Barron a lot more than the guys playing before him and it looks like I was spot on as he strolls into the Scotland squad.

Haha, yes I am.

Up side, Celtic are physically small in the middle

I've watched them all. I've never bought into the one of our own stuff with shinnie. He's a poor passer, lacks physicality and his legs are past their best. He is/was a pest and that's his defining quality but as the legs go that is weaning. He's a decent SPL midfielder but some people are obsessed with shoe horning him into the side Hearts totally dominated midfield against us last game. I'd have expected change.

Going to take a massive improvement from last couple of games to give them a run for their money tomorrow. Personally I'd drop shinnie for palaversa to give us the legs and power in the middle and play duk at 10 as the hold up and out ball to avoid being pegged in. They play so high that the break is our best shout. ( With us being unable to hold a high line as shown against hearts ) Shame we aren't getting them after a euro drubbing but if we can nick an early goal it's game on as I think we can score goals anywhere with this squad.

Ironically after the changes there were a couple of chances that you'd fancy nisbet to have got on the end of.

Why Nilsen before shinnie? Barring a couple of slack passes, he held our team together today and was the organizer out there. Shinnie like Clarkson spent much of the game being pushed off it by big boys.

You missed topi I can totally take on four guys keskinen there.

Ooft, that was twitchy. Great finish for the third. Fantastic to see duk back and terrorising hearts. Big decisions going forward as a few of the regulars struggled today. That said, it might actually have been better to see hearts get their hopes up before ruining their afternoon.

Lacking power in there. Shinnie or Clarkson have to come off because we're winning very little in the way of second balls. McGrath taking an extra touch every time so far. Big half time talk this. Hearts getting the ball to dhanda far too easily.

Can't say it wasn't coming. A few invisible men in that team today.

Just caught the highlights. Poor Barry

Haha, I'm actually watching Chelsea Brighton. All action game.

Nae signal. I need to speak with my very credible supplier.

Thanks but I'd given up in the huff by then.

Just back from the stenny game today. Utter mince! Was hoping to catch the game but the streaming gods aren't playing ball. Knowing Spartans. I don't think they'll trouble us but they will be stubborn and physical. Ify take 2-0 now

At least we now know why we were ordering new spotlight bulbs every other week.

If we can keep big HN fit we are in for a very good season. He's a joy to watch, gliding through the game like it's in slow motion. Winning everything and some of his passing under pressure today was outstanding. What I loved today was him going mental when we were slack with the ball. He's the absolute leader in that squad. Something we've not seen since Bobby biscuit. I thought palaversa was solid enough but as mentioned above more of a holding player again. Good cover for HN and shinnie. Felt Clarkson was desperate for the Hollywood pass to get his place back and ultimately put us under pressure multiple times by giving the ball away. I'm not sure where he goes in this system. Great to see that table tonight. That's got to put the fear into teams facing us.

Have to say that Morris had looked really dangerous again. I'd like to see us play him right with topi left next week. Proper pace with pape between them. Should blow Spartans away. In

Ooft

Should be a good test for us. Motherwell have been a pleasant surprise this season. I'd fancy us to win by a couple provided the old manager of the month curse doesn't strike. It'd be good to keep momentum as we've yet to really be tested in the league by a good side.

Made a good start. Good run there and not scared to have a go.

Second half was a bit flat. Never looked like we had an extra man. Great thing is that we've won again and still have a lot better to come from a lot of guys.

Good half. Nelsen again outstanding, just running the show. Should be a couple up and missed some real chances. Only downside is that we haven't put it to bed and Killie will come out determined to steal something. Keskinen still to convince me that he's any better than Morris after that half. Hopefully just nerves.

Seen that, can't say it excites me. Seems to spend most of his time on the table.
