Hate that feeling seeing a players body language going to take a penalty and you know he's missing had that with Gassama ?

It would be so like us, like, if a scenario came where Hearts had to beat us to pip that mob to the league. All our usual passengers would play blinders.

And why not? We play to win at all times.

Unfortunately, Gers70.
Play to win?! Not against Celtic, certainly not against O'Neil - we lay down like tarts!

And, Tav, short run-up; he stood and took an extra breath - he knew he was missing. Not like him, to be fair. Where was Chermiti, our main striker?
08 Mar 2026 21:56:16
You think? That's why we dominated them then.
08 Mar 2026 22:08:54
Mvg, that's a great point as Dessers got it in the neck for not taking a pen, though he may have been on the 5th one, but that wasn't needed because of the bottlers before him.

Don't like to call it, but my son and I both called it when Tav and Gasamma stepped up and missed. Anyhow, we move on. Let's get recruitment right in the summer, and we'll have a proper go next season.

Knew Tav was going to miss. Always see a player with a short run-up missing in a shootout, and it always seems to be the so-called bigger players that miss.

Come on, you would normally put money on Tav scoring. Think it's the first time I have seen him hit the crossbar.
That said, it then set the tone and added pressure to all those coming after.
I was told Chermiti was number 5, though in my mind strikers should go first. Get the pressure on, and then your "weaker" penalty takers follow thereafter.

Can't have anyone take a throw-in before Captain Tav, never mind a penalty. Haha.
Professional player missing a penalty is baffling. No worries, the keeper saves it, but come on, how can you not fit the target at least.
Embarrassing all round.
