Rennes were sitting second in the French league two points behind PSG before the Celtic game so i think our result especially away from home is better.

John O'Brien Posted September 22, 2019 Author Share Posted September 22, 2019 Great result for Hearts and CL today, he and the fans really needed that. Decent second half from Hearts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owls maniac Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 Big Big result for Hearts. Maybe a corner turned? Sad to see Paul Heckingbottom struggling so badly at Hibs. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rangers won at home. I get that, arguably, Celtic’s task was harder. But a draw can never be, by definition, a better result than a win. Like Derby’s draw at Leeds was against a stronger team than Forest beat (Barnsley). Forest’s was still the better result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a good point for Celtic but will only be so if backed up with a home win when the fixtures are reversed. Rangers have 3 points on the board against the side the expect to be competing against for 2nd place. Celtic have harder games to come against Lazio and Cluj, who have already knocked them out of 1 European competition this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decent second half from Hearts. A massive result and hopefully the corner is now turned. When we have Haring, Naismith and Souttar back we will be stronger too. We absolutely have to go on a run of wins now and hopefully we will make the semi finals too and beat Aberdeen on Wednesday night in the League Cup. Next league game is in Paisley and realistically we should be looking to win that. Fingers crossed it’s not a one-off! 14 hours ago, owls maniac said: Big Big result for Hearts.

I think their squad however is genuinely bottom 6 fodder and maybe even potential relegation battlers. Their manager has signed a load of players from Leagues 1 and 2 and you can tell. Pretty much all duds, nowhere near good enough, and many on long term deals. I’d be worried if I was a Hibs fan.

Kris Boyd agreed with you in that Hibs seem to have signed a lot of average at best players but you were below this average team 1 game ago and still would be were in not for a deflected winning goal.
