On this excuse for a pitch the Heart of Midlothian, in spite of losing two central defenders to injury, in spite of having one man sent of because he was wearing a Heart of Midlothian shirt (He would never have been dismissed by Wullie Collum had he worn an Old Firm jersey), in spite of having our left back suffer a head cut, in spite of having a blatant penalty turned down, in spite of being harassed by the least motivated Aberdeen side for years the Heart of Midlothian won the game with a marvellous overhead kick from Edgar Jonsson! Jonsson was an excellent example of a player motivated to win, something missing from McGhoo's Aberdeen side. (Can the manager survive the season? Will he experiment with young blood or just walk away? The club cannot afford to sack him can they?) Throughout the game he gave his all and when he scored the goal he had in fact been moved to central defence, so what was he doing in the Dandy Dons penalty area! Obua, so often abused by some, once again showed his ability, first as a stand in striker and secondly as a stand in defender! Greta show from him. Balogh in goal had almost nothing to do. So much so the only moment was when he was booked for time wasting by the incompetent ref. Six players obtained a booking, few deserved one. Poor showing by the referee in many ways today.

Hearts have now played Aberdeen three times in six weeks and have won once. Guess which game I decided not to go to? (but I did watch it on the telly)
The only way McGhee won't survive the season is if he walks away. We can't afford to pay another manager off!
If I've mentioned it once, I've mentioned it a hundred times, all it takes to win a game is some super strong hairspray and headers. It's called the 'catch and run with it' move, works every time...
an Aberdeen supporter stops his sobbing, whimpering and deep internal sweary mutterings to ponder 1st Lady's suugestion and reckon it is the only thing McGhee hasn't tried yet....
Mike, you are always lucky, like me!
Loon, I realised that but too late to mention it. Milne is the one that has to act.
Young Lady, that was tried in the 70's by several players but their perms made the pitch all gooey.
Kenfitlike, with all that mud on Pittodrie I am not sure if the Dones need that suggestion?
