    I think we need to change up our attack and they way we play, if eddy is off then we should not play him again, hopefully Koyogo and Starfelt are free of quarantine and can join in training Friday they have been playing so should be up to speed fitness especially Koyogo

    I would like to see Abada and Forest play on wings the could interchange have Koyogo and Christie up top with McGregor and Turnball in the middle play Soro in front of Ralston Welsh and Starfelt, Forest and Abada covering full back positions when they have the ball. It would give us the speed and control to out pass out play most SPL teams

    Bain
    Ralston, Welsh Starfelt
    Soro
    Forest, Turnbull, McGregor, Abada
    Christie
    Koyogo ​

    Buzzing for this, especially the pints before hand lol. Is Kyogo actually available? I thought he wasn’t.

    Need to learn about Scottish Football. I'm assuming that Hearts are one of the shitbag clubs? Who else (apart from the obvious)?

    I'd wager that the semi-decent clubs must be Hibs (several past Australian players) and Dundee (Julian Speroni) Correct?

    Hearts are for the most part a tough place to go and get points,big part of that is their fans are all * and they hate us as much as we hate them.....they have a few nicknames.......diet huns....huns without bus fare.Their fans have in the past tried to hit one of our players after he scored and one fan ran onto the pitch to attack lennon our old manager at the dugout.

    I think he comes out of quarantine on Friday so maybe he makes the bench probably this weekend and who knows maybe he makes a Sinclairesque scoring appearance off the bench:57:

    I think I'd avoid playing Soro in this fixture. Could see him maybe getting a red

    Down to business. Think the more we play the better we'll get although we won't hit the heights until the full back areas are sorted. Hopefully Starfelt will improve things a bit at the back, should have enough going forward to cause problems for Hearts.

    Work in progress and we'll get there eventually. Obviously raging at the usual taking too long to bring in players we need, and at going out of the CL at the first hurdle, but it's done now and we really need to focus in every match.

    We have areas of the team were we have big selection problems I rather play a traffic cone up front on Saturday than Eddie who seems he rather be somewhere else and Ajeti is cutting it for me either .

    What do you mean by shitbag? Here in the UK shitbag generally means someone who is scared of something or who backs down from everything.

    Swinecastle(hearts) is one of the hardest places to go and get a result. The invincible side lost that tag by getting humped 4-0 there. Their support are rabid animals who are right up close to the pitch.

    Hibs are similar to a slightly lesser extent, but are usually a poorer side than hearts. Both crowds are very partizan, they suffer from Glasgow envy.

    Dundee are a nothing club, cannon fodder.

    Hearts, hibs, Aberdeen and huns are the hard games, anywhere else and we're expected to win and win comfortably, unless there is plastic pitch involved. Still expected to win at the former grounds but generally accepted that it is a harder task.

    I’m struggling to fathom out how you ended up here if you don’t know Scottish football…

    Lesson 1:

    The quality, ethics, support, history and success of any club is not measured by how many Australian players (or managers) it currently has…. or has had in the past.

    I think he means Hearts are in the same bracket type of fans as der hun, his although partisan are not as bad as hearts fans
    Dundee haven’t been a force for a long time neither Dundee clubs fans are anything

    Aberdeen can also be quite anti but I think in truth they are just anti Glasgow same at Hibs Fans.

    but mainly our bigoted hatred comes from der hun and hearts
