"Everyone, it seems, knows how to play against them now: attack them relentlessly, and at speed, and the goals will come."

Interesting opening gambit from Bathgate in his report on the Hearts - Killie match and one which Butcher and our players should latch on to this in the forthcoming derby match. Interestingly, we started the cup game against them like that and had them reeling ..... pity the goals didn't come tho'. More of the same and we can put another nail in their coffin next time.

Is that not what we did in the Cup game?

We could have easily been 3 or 4 up against them very early on in that game it was just the sucker punch of their goal that sucked all life out of our attack

In the LC game we needed a break but didn't get one. I am certain we will go at them like that from the off on the 2nd and hopefully take our chances.

We just need to do what we did yesterday. Defend well and catch them out at set pieces.

Hearts are really poor going forward and really fragile at the back. If we get in their faces and win a lot of corners and set pieces, they'll make mistakes.

But lets not forget that we have another important game at ER first. A result in that game would certainly help.

:agree:

If we negate Walker we reduce the chances of them scoring and if we run right at them, like Killie did then we might just reap the rewards
