Elias Henry Furst Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 Sergio had him playing consistently well which culminated in him bossing the cup final. Good luck Blackie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haken Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 Some single fish being spouted on here. Black was a decent player who was gradually improving, culminating in his MoM performance in the final. Anyone with eyes could see that. Even the pundits throughout thes season spoke about his improvement as a footballer and not just someone who could mix it up physically. Absolutely the sort of player we need in the midddle of the park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nookie Bear Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 Terrible footballer who was roundly hounded upon on here and in the ground for being a terrible footballer. Turned up when it mattered though. I sometimes wonder if football is really for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HMFC86 Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 Sergio had him playing consistently well which culminated in him bossing the cup final. Good luck Blackie. Was just going to say this. Clearly a player there that really only Sergio was able to unleash. Was excellent that season and his performance on that day in May was one of the best I've seen from a CM in a Hearts shirt. Could have easily been sent off in the opening minutes though......makes it funnier when you see it now! Good Jambo, most definitely "got Hearts" and his passion & desire is what we've lacked for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strawberry Jam Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 His ball for Beattie to score against hibs in the derby before the cup final was inch perfect. Was fantastic in the cup final as well. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamdunc Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 SUBSTITUTIONBlackpool 1-1 Exeter Posted at61 mins Ian Black - formerly of Hearts - comes on for Jack Payne. Can he continue that quarterback-style passing from deep? He was part of the Hearts side that beat fierce rivals Hibs 5-1 in the 2012 Scottish Cup final at Hampden.

Siphiwe Tshabalala Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 Well done to Black. Fwiw, Blackpool staff are a shower of arseholes so I'd rather they stayed down and slowly died. But well done to Black nonetheless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watt-Zeefuik Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 One of my first favorites at Hearts. His gambling foibles and the tea and biscuits stuff at Rangers didn't reflect well on him.

i wish jj was my dad Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 I thought Blackie started improving under Mr Jim and was a star of the team that had that great run.

Solid ball winner/shin snapper, cares about the club and could bring the drive and accountability we've been lacking. He was hopeless in his first two seasons.

Borders Jambo Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 Apt description, would also very much like to see him in a Hearts shirt again. The hobos wouldnt stand a chance against Berra and Black imo.The other aspect would be the influence of both on any younger players coming through, similar to Jimmy Bone and Sandy Clark with Robbo, Sandy Jardines influence etc I would love Blackie back. I'd also think it would influence season ticket renewal and help the fans identify with the team again, something that diminished from the transfer window last January Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Canada Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 I'd rather have Black than most of our current central midfield options. However, I don't see it happening as he's probably not what Cathro is looking for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shanks said no Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 ?Ian Black was quoted as saying this in December 2015 "The only club I?d come back up and play for now is Hearts,? he continued. ?I?m a Hearts boy, I was successful there and they were great with me. I left on good terms. Unfortunately, the way I left was for financial reasons and because of the way the club was going. They?ve got a new owner and they?re flying now. Maybe one day I can go up there before I finish my career and pull that jersey back on.? http://www.scotsman.com/sport/football/teams/hearts/ian-black-i-ll-only-return-for-hearts-1-3977657 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
