    I’ve just finished William McIlvanney’s loon Liam’s The Good Father on audiobook from the toon library, very worthwhile. I’m currently in stop-start mode with James Leslie Mitchell’s Stained Radience, as due to my appalling sleeping pattern, I’m struggling a little with it. It looks like a decent shottie at a big story before he hit the mother lode three years later John of John (Douglas Stuart’s latest) is doing the audiobook thing well in my lugs. Again, due to anarchic sleeping shenanigans, though, I’m fighting a losing battle with Clare Chambers’ Shy Creatures (i-Pad/E-book). I’ve has a massive and ruthless clear-out in recent months which has seen the British Heart Foundation charity shop near the Union Street Co-opy benefit by nearly 150 books, along with probably about a hunner CDs. Ye canna tak it wi ye.

    Amazingly, Hearts are favourites for this match. We’re currently about 2/1 for the win. Having some of that!

    I gave it 5⭐️ - I thought the premise was extremely clever, and the Inundation and Derangement cleverly thought and used to great effect in searching for the corona sonnet. The characters were a parade of misfits, geniuses, victims and utter fucking radges. I think the author’s back on form, and WWCK and Machines Like Me are classic McEwan. Hud gan wi it min.

    Watched them again last night. Sturm Graz are decent & certainly better than us, but that Hearts team is not good. Wide open on the flanks, absolutely nothing in centre mid, nothing up front and not particularly dominant at the back. Apart fae that. They are definitely there for the taking on Saturday. Get in their faces, play with physicality and intensity (unlike last year, we can actually do this now) move the ball quickly and get it in the box, the 3 points is absolutely there for us…

    It's all gone very quiet on the transfer front the past week or so. Had hoped to see some more movement out the door at least and our need for another winger hasn't gone anywhere.

    From the bbc website, some are sharpening knives already. Steve: Extremely worrying with a manager trying to play his own style of play but not having the players to play that way. Reminds me of Daniel Stendel and Neil Critchley. No right-back that can tackle, Blair Spittal is too slow and how on earth can you bring on Jamie McCart and Pierre Landry Kabore after last week? Hopefully Josh McPake and Laurent Mendy can play at the weekend. The manager is already on a shoogly peg. Dan: This Hearts squad just doesn't look ready and it's a reality check. It's as simple as that. In the few games of pre season there's been little cutting edge. Claudio Braga, while a great player and gives 100% every time, can't cope up front on his own without support and runners beyond him. Too many promising attacks broke down with next to no composure in front of goal. The lack of leadership is a huge concern. The start of the new season is just days away and begins at a ground we haven't won in the league since 2016. A pre-season, doesn't define a season but if we make the same mistakes as we have over the Champions League qualifier, Aberdeen are more than capable of taking advantage. Alison: Reminiscent of the Critchley days. Players do not seem to have a clue how to defend or break up the play and a few of them are nowhere near this level. A strong striker and powerful centre-back are a must as this team looks easily bullied. Billy: There is a huge disconnect just now, this does not feel like a passionate team and Scottish football demands passion. For every flair player you need a Scott Brown type to lay down the law and connect the fans. We look easy to beat and easy to deflate. Worrying times and I suspect a long August is now ahead. Steve Clarke would be the perfect manager just now. David: Given the turmoil post-season there is no surprise we haven't come flying out of the starting blocks. Wouter Vrancken is definitely not Wilfried Nancy or Russell Martin and I really like the way he is trying to get the team to play. They are already showing it in spells although some steel is required in midfield. Look how Motherwell started last season and how they developed as season progressed. Keep the faith. John: We overachieved last season while Celtic and Rangers imploded early on. Half the team and the manager have departed with key personnel now at Rangers. This team is in transition will take time to gel so I'm not expecting great things over the next month and think a top-six finish will be a good result overall. Happy to miss out on European football while we rebuild.
