'On to Hampden' thanks to 'Skacel-esque Kartum'
We asked for your views on Hearts' 3-1 Scottish Cup win over what some of you said:Chris: A must-win game so I'm glad to come away with the victory but there is a lot to be frustrated by too. Our defending can be so amateurish and is costing us at vital times. Elton Kabangu needs to be less wasteful and seems to be constantly offside. With a little more composure all around we could have less nerves and more enjoyment. On to A far better display from Hearts, Lewis Nielson had a man of the match display, subs made a difference also in second half when Dundee came back into the game. Another nine league games played like that should see us into a top four Impressive win. Sander Kartum looks a real find, tall, athletic, fast, skillful and scores quite good goals! With Cammy Devlin back soon alongside him we are building an exciting midfield and with options up front, could be an interesting end of the season. Back three/four stills needs work but will be interesting to see how we do against Celtic away in two A fantastic cup tie, end-to-end stuff, two fantastic finishes from Kartum. Beni Baningime was magnificent, back to the player he before the Those two marvellous goals from Kartum reminded me of Rudi Skacel. If Kartum proves to be of Skacel's ilk, we could be in for a very interesting time!Brian: A good win, but for me it's [about] regular, steady playing and results against teams we really should be winning against. lets hope this is the turn around. Been a diehard Jambo for 64 years, I've followed through thick and thin.

Concerns about recruitment & is stadium move still on?
We asked for your views on what the one thing nobody is talking about at what some of you said:Gary: The goals have all-but dried up and Simon Murray does a power of running but instead of being in the positions to score, he's usually filling the gaps his team-mates are leaving. They rarely match his workload or drive to succeed. A more stocked midfield would take pressure off both him and the defence, as well as providing the service he The proposed move to the new stadium seems to have died a death. Going to be a cracking stadium for championship football. In that case, it will never be full unless Take That play a concert The recruitment this season, or lack thereof, has been a complete and utter shambles. One striker for the run in, midfield was weak before the ridiculous last minute sale of McCowan, and hasn't been strengthened either, but one striker to see out the season is amateur planning and is absolutely Best thing about Dundee is that Murray continues to cover over a multitude of defensive howlers. The worst thing is the failure to stop cheap goals. Any ball in our box causes havoc in the defence and heart attacks in the Dundee fans can be quick to turn on the team and manager. Other teams know this and use it to their advantage. We need to be more supportive otherwise it will be another few years of relegation and then winning the Championship (which is not easy). We need to have a solid number of years making sure we stay in the Premiership.

'A chance missed but another encouraging performance'
We asked for your views on St Johnstone's 1-1 draw against what some of you said:Jimmy: A battling performance, I felt we should have won, one of those 'what if' moments when Adama Sidibeh swiped at the ball. All in all, it's a game we didn't lose, there are more points out there, points that we can earn when we play that bit better. I feel we need Benjamin Kimpioka back, he's had his ups and downs, he needs to knuckle down now and get back to A chance missed but another encouraging performance. Despite being the only Premiership side to face three games in six days, Saints utterly dominated the worst side we've faced for many a season in the first half. Clearly tiring in the second half, we still did enough to fend them off. If we keep playing how we can, there is no way we will finish below them.

'A game we'd have lost under previous management'
We asked you for your thoughts on Michael Wimmer's winning home debut as Motherwell boss, a 2-1 victory over what some of you said:James: Vast improvement in the first half. Closing down, one-touch passing, not many long balls. Second half, we fell out of it, but great to get a A bad team do not accumulate 31 points in this league without some merit. We really lack a striker who can score regularly but are indebted to defenders and midfielders to plug that gap. Give the new manager some slack and allow him to continue with the high-pressing, attacking style which produced last night's result.D: Great performance full of energy and intensity under Wimmer. A great style of play that was pleasing to see, much different to the rubbish hoof-ball we saw under Stuart Kettlewell. That's a game we'd have lost under the previous management, very excited by the future under Just looked at the stats - 14 shots, six on target. Probably not far off the last eight games in total! Onwards and upwards. No point in belittling the former management, the stats in one game say enough. Let the team now prove they are good enough to stay in the Massive improvement from the previous manager - night and day. We tired in the second half but everyone gave 100%.
