    I’ve not watched any of Hearts since McCart came in but they’ve won 5 and drawn 1 in which they had a clean sheet since his arrival.

    How much of that is down to McCart I’ve no idea, because I haven’t watched them, but it hardly seems an outlandish suggestion that he might actually be a good signing given how well they’re doing since his arrival?

    Rather than him being ‘at it’ it’s much more likely he’s just calling it as he sees it.
    Maybe though it’s only a few weeks ago hertz went with a defensive pairing of Halkett and Neilson , is this any better than what we have when he describes us as having ‘ real issues?’ ..

    The St Mirren game , they should easily have went in halftime 2 or 3 up in which I thought McCart looked shaky and Gordon suspect on their goal …

    I just don’t see the difference in we have real issues and they have better balance just as I didn’t see the ‘ New Identity’ Stewart was raving about under Critchley in the European game which backfired on him eventually too .

    I’ve seen so little of Hearts that I can’t really comment with any real certainty, but they’ve got a better defensive record than us this season. They’ve conceded 33 to our 37.

    Our current form probably suggests we no longer have real issues, I don’t think it’s a stretch to suggest we definitely did earlier in the season though.

    Which team are we? The team that goes 11 games unbeaten or the team that is bottom of the league after 14 games?

    I would say it is reaaonable to suggest that we are both.

    Depending on confidence, injuries, decisions, ability and sheer luck we could be either going forward. That's football.

    It’s only four goals though and since we have improved in the Aberdeen 3-3 game I think we have only lost two more than them .

    We have also scored 3 more than them ( 37 & 34 ) and if it wasn’t for a game that Dundee collapsed in where they got 6 in there would have been a bigger margin in that too .

    His comments about us having ‘ real issues ‘ would have been fair enough earlier on when Bursik was in goals and we were making individual mistakes but they have came at a time when we have vastly improved and I just …

    Don’t see one club having ‘ real issues ‘ over the other one that is meant to have better balance .. the McCart being a good signing and we need better than Rocky comment also is a bit baffling as I wouldn’t swap Rocky for McCart who btw has made the TEAM OF THE WEEK too .

    I fear you are slightly obsessing over this...

    No not at all . I just don’t see where Stewart’s coming from with us have real issues while the team he supports has balance . When you see our defender’s compared to hertz I don’t think ours are any worse. Smith I’m sure is well up on the goalkeeper’s table too .

    I seems to me Michael Stewart (was forced) had to change his approach. That was a couple of years back, when he was gagged and forced to apologise by the BBC for daring to say something non-complementary about the the rangers. I think we are now hearing his frustration amongst his truncated comments.

    Agree completely and said the same in the past. He got neutered and hasn't been a patch on what he was since then.

    Doesn't say much about him as a person then if he'd quickly chuck his views just to toe the line. Bellend of a man.
