Match Thread Hearts V Aberdeen (1 - 3)

[The Boofon]

I'll predict a serious injury for one of our players ruling them out for 6-8 weeks due to a horrendous tackle from a hearts player.

Aye and a booking for one of our players for simulation...

[The Boofon]

Danny Ward to save their penalty.

[RAZOR]

Was Floods free kick at Tynecastle at the end of 13/14 our last goal scored direct from a free kick?

[TynesideDon]

Having to sit in the Hearts end for this one so hope I can contain myself when Rooney rattles in his hat trick.

[Foster14]

The Roseburn will be bouncing on Sunday pre game.

[minijc]

I don't think we'll win down here, only won 3 of our last 25 against them.

My first 3 visits. The 4 or 5 since haven't been so good.

 

That said, our record against Celtic at home must have been 2 in ???. I'd imagine more than 25 games, but not sure...

[Dynamo]

Ward

Logan Taylor Quinn Consi

Hayes Jack Shinnie McGinn

McLean

Rooney

 

If Hayes is suspended I'd play Pawlett.

Think we were 1 from 36 going in to saturdays one.

[Foster14]

Just checked, it was 25 games exactly.

[Foster14]

At home? We had 2-1 the season before last and 4-2 in the Calderwood era.

Just going with what SPFL stats had up last week, I was very pished when reading it mind.

[barassie_afc]

Will take a draw

[DD1903]

The Canadian Dons must be frothing at the gash in anticipation of this one. Already a +1 of each others posts!

 

Surely you mean 'Canadian don' !?

[dave_min]

Aye, but we've won 7 of our last 7.

[SkyeDon]

Our record is terrible at Tynecastle. I have seen us winning there however, Chris Clark deflected winner in the rain, 2-1.

 

Would shift Shinnie back in to midfield and bring Quinn back in too. It'll be a tough one and we'll need to play well, certainly better than we did last night by all accounts.

 

I think we will though, they concede and their mentality is questionable.

 

2-1 Dons.

 

COYR!

Elvis was furious that day. Pleasing.

[Poodler]

 

Elvis was furious that day. Pleasing.

He was crying in the chapel after it

He was all shook up.

[Nelly]

Aye, but we've won 7 of our last 7.

 

Exactly, previous results between Dons teams that registered 9,10 or 11 wins a season against the big wage earners of Romanov's tenure have absolutely no bearing on how we'll do this Sunday. It's not like we're even up against a Hearts 11 that have been developed from their big spending days, it's a Hearts 11 cobbled together that did well in the Championship last year. 2 clean sheets in 9 games so far this season, conceding 13. Think they should be more worried than us.

I can't remember playing Hearts that many times in a season?

[muttonhumper]

7/5 for a Dons win Willie Hills.

 

Buying money?

 

16/11 Bet Bright (fa'iver they are).

[ebbe]

I've been to tynecastle 3 times, 2 wins and a draw and I'll be there on Sunday. I'm a good omen.

[Nelly]

Thanks for the feedback, how's this?

or would brackets be better?

I only deal with the pedantic side of things.

 

You'd have to ask @ for grammar advice.

[alscotoz]

Can't see why we won't win on Saturday. Our 'hoodoo' against them is from a different era. They're being found out already, leaking goals; why wouldn't we beat a newly promoted team? 0-2. McGinn due a goal. Just want us to score more than they do.

Probably be quite difficult seeing as we're playing them on Sunday...

 

Hope you've nae arranged transport for Saturday...

[Guest RosemountRed]

We can win but it won't be easy.

[fine-n-dandy]

100 or so "returned for resale" tickets still available in the home end for this game.

After them selling out so quickly i'd have thought these would be snapped up in minutes but it seems not.
