    We Want EIGHT

    We've shared that record with Celtc for long enough. Let's get it back.

    More than likely 1-0 either way. I can see someone having a hit and hope from 30 yards for them and then parking the bus. Seems to be how they get their points.

    I wondered how long it would take

    Why the hell do we continually talk ourselves down?

    Ah yeah....like the "man up" campaign before the 2012 Cup Final. That really worked!

    Because we're hibees . Eternal optimists (until we lose a goal).

    Normally, I would agree with your cautious prediction, but I really feel that hibs should be capable of taking 2 or 3 off Hearts now, and in the ghastly event of defeat, I would deduct a couple of gold stars from the many butcher has acquired.

    Their weaknesses in defending are where we are strongest.

    Absolute no contest.

    They will simply put everyone behind the ball, hope for a break (like last time)
    and be more than happy with 0-0.

    Now tell me that is not a possibility.

    We need to get stuck in from the kick-off , get a goal and build on that. They will collapse if we get a couple before HT. We should play confidently (Terry will do that) and hopefully take the chances when they come. This lot are MINCE and deserve to get thumped.

    I doubt Hibs will score 8 in the whole of January though.

    We might want 8 but ill settle for 1-0, too often in these games the team has let the fans down, time the players showed up and played like they want it more than the yams.

    Setting ourselves up for a fall with ideas of wild scores. Hearts should have won today. They will be buoyed by todays result and will come to ER and park the bus. Will be very difficult to break down.

    If we manage to score fairly early their game plan's knackered, either way don't think we'll make any mistake this time.

    Not a game they will be looking forward too despite any bravado from the deluded ones over there. :thumbup:

    I agree mate. If we score early then we should go on to score more. We have to score first....it is critical. They have no attacking threat but we have zero luck in derbies and it would be typical that they score with another Stevenson like fluke goal.

    If we manage to get an early goal, I'm hopeful we'll be in for a comfortable evening.

    However I'll be more than happy with a 1-0 victory.

    The last time we managed to beat them by more than a single goal was October 2005 so I think any predictions of a cricket score on Thursday night are a bit foolish.

    If we can score early on, they'll be forced to commit players forward, which will leave them extremely vulnerable at the back.

    However, I don't want our players feeling under pressure to score an early goal, then going into a panic if they don't score in the first 10-15 minutes.

    Let's just focus on getting that first goal, however long it takes.

    It seems every time we play them these days people on here predict convincing hibs victories. Il be delighted with a 1-0, obviously we are long overdue to give them a vast humping but as usual I can't see it. Although I'm quietly confident of a win, it wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if it finished 0-0 or dare I say it a repeat of the last 2 derbies. Just because we've beat Ross county and Kilmarnock (2 of the worst teams in the league) recently doesn't mean we should get carried away.

    One of which thumped the perennial cheaters 4-0 at the PBS less than a week ago

    This! Plus it would be great if it's an early one as well as the place will be rocking and their heads will go down.

    Did the last two games against Hearts not teach people any lessons, let's just go about our business quietly, rather than shouting we will do this and that - then it all going tits up.

    Agree with this. They will definitely come to make things difficult for us and hit us on the break and they certainly won't be dictating anything.

    I've seen a few of their matches and I think they play better away from home because the pressure is off. They feel obligated to come forward at home and teams can pick them off...hence a lot of their worst results being at Tynecastle.

    They also aren't as bad as results would suggest. They get forward in wide areas and put a lot of dangerous balls into the box just begging for a striker to get onto. They also have players who like to take men on and drive into the box.

    Eight might be stretching it but we have to be like a dog with a bone for ninety minutes. If we are one down we will have to keep battering away and likewise if we are two up. Contrary to popular belief, I don't think their heads will go down if we score and they will still be dangerous. A lot of them simply consider themselves lucky to be in that position and therefore don't give a monkeys (in a good way) which enables them to play with a certain element of freedom.

    If we play for 90 minutes we should win but we have to make sure that we do...and patience might be required when it comes to getting that breakthrough.

    Anything less than double figures will feel like a defeat.
