    Fantastic first half. Hearts can't live with us and the goals were both absolute beauties.

    Keep up the intensity and focus at the back when the inevitable pressure comes from them and we should be lifting the cup yet again in an hour's time :62:

    He should have sent Naismith off for the stamp but ffs he also gave us a penalty that many other refs wouldn't probably so to call him a cheat today is a slight exaggeration

    Why was he actually not booked for that?
    Seen players booked all the time for kicking the ball at players, thats worthy of one surely?

    He really is. Hope brown gets a chance to get him back and break his bones.

    Anyone else notice that Beaton was on automatic pilot for the penalty? Shouted 'penalty to Rangers'.

    Matter of time before the goals flood in. This can be 4,5 or 6. I'd be bringing Klimala on to play up with Eddy. Let him try and bag a few.
    Can't complain about anything major there, only minor moans about Duffy's passing, Christie's passing/woeful FK and Taylor with a lazy pass.
    That's nitpicking though, we've absolutely bossed it.

    We're playing a second rate outfit though, he's done OK but we need to evaluate the opponent.

    Playing well so far, hopefully finish the job in the 2nd half. Surprised at Gordon losing the rag, don't know why he took it personally. Naismith getting away with stamping AGAIN. It seems every time he plays against us now he stamps or kicks our players whilst running about constantly laughing like a lunatic. The huns going under must have took its toll on him.

    Gordon never saved a penalty for us, maybe in a shootout, * was hopeless as them.

    Good half. High intensity, great goals. Still a few concerns about the back line but definitely much improved over the last 2 and a half games.

    Right,

    On the whole, a good first half. We have been here before though. We need to keep it up and get another 2 or 3 goals and a clean sheet here.
    Brown for me needs dropped and we need to get Soro up to speed, his energy and dynamic play is so much more beneficial to breaking down packed defenses as well. That and Laxalt would be the two changes I want to see in the early part of the second half.

    Overall, good play, in control.
    But a big win is needed, because in perspective this is a championship side we are playing.
