For me ythe difference is that there have been good signs with other centre halves too. I can think of about 2 games where Martis has looked ok, the rest of the time its been bombshell time. Jones has been poor of late but has had very stong points during the season. Hogg I think has got better as the season has gone on. Didn't see it on TV yesterday but at the time on Sat I thought Martis should have dealt with it first, once the ball had bounced we were in bother.

Totally right. Any decent centre half will tell you it is CRIMINAL to let the ball bounce. When did you ever see one of the weightlifters at the back for Hearts let the ball bounce? Don't know how many times I've said it - you don't HAVE to be a good football player to be a good centre half - just do the basic things correctly and it is so effective. This is something we have been seriously lacking over the season.
