queensferryjambo Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 Just listening to Radio Scotland and had a good chuckle at the commentators bickering and having a laugh with each other. When Michael Stewart was arguing with all the other pundits Steven Thompson (I think) came back with a rather stinging retort of 'No wonder Craig Levein hates you'. No idea if Levein hates Stewart he certainly hasn't said anything publicly about Stewart to my knowledge but either way it was a great put down and very funny from Thompson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

queensferryjambo Posted September 23, 2017 Author Share Posted September 23, 2017 Its true. They cant stand each other. I know Stewart isn't a fan of Levein as he has voiced this very publicly on many occasions but I don't think I have ever seen or heard any comments from Levein back at him. Obviously considering Stewart's comments over the years I doubt Craig sends him a Christmas card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iainmac Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 They also had a fall out when Mackay suggested fans boycott games over the pieman/murrayfield situation, Mackay covers it in his autobiography, think if I recall he also tried to smooth things over with CL at a function but they'd both had a few and it didnt go so well CL suggested SOH took our Pieman protests "outside the stadium" as it was affecting the players. That would've been totally pointless. CL also suggested that GM should think about the players he represented, such as Graeme Weir, with the subtle suggestion that he might not be able to offer a new contract, etc. All water under the bridge now.

Thaw Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 Soon after Laszlo was appointed, Stewart did an interview with the Record in which he claimed that all his previous managers except Alex Ferguson and Tony Mowbray (!) had been "shite".

Jungle Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 Not sure CL hates him. That's pretty strong but MS will have a chip on his shoulder for the rest of his life given he was passed over for Nelson after trying so hard to pursued Anne Budge to bring back Csaba with him as assistant. Believe he thought it was in the bag. I hear sour grapes each time he speaks about Hearts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bazzas right boot Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Stewart is a good pundit. CL was a Hearts player for ten years, +, managed us for 3 seasons, was Scotland manager, then was our Dof and now manages us. At a guess 15 years give or take given to Hearts and counting. There are plenty of other pundits and managers to dislike, but if you must choose between these two, it should be a very simple choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cosanostra Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Stewart is a better pundit than he was player and captain. His opinions are an utter irrelevance in the grand scheme of things.

Stewart was an utterly useless fud at the club - and pretty much everywhere else he went. His estimation of his his own greatness never translated on to the pitch or in any other measurable off-field way.

Finlay James Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 I spoke to JJ about MS and he told me about their falling out. Apparently, they had a bust up at half time in JJ's first match during his second spell, away to St Johnstone. JJ challenged MS to start playing and stop moaning as he spent more time talking about how good a player he is rather than showing it. He then promptly subbed him. MS took the petted lip. MS played roughly 200 games in his career and was ok but that is about it. Craig Levein on the other hand..................... If MS was not involved in the media, I bet nobody would even remember him, he was such a non-entity. He talks about former bosses and colleagues in such a disrespectful way that he automatically has zero credibility as he accepts no blame for anything. It's all everyone else's fault in his mind. As for GM not liking CL, who gives a ****, does anyone on here like every single person that they have ever worked with? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 If MS was not involved in the media, I bet nobody would even remember him, he was such a non-entity.

Expert on the subject Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Stewart is just trying to make a name for himself as a pundit by stirring up controversy,.the same tactic that Sutton and prior to that Burley used to good effect, but its entirely self serving drivel last Sundays sportscene mock argument with Thompson was cringeworthy, has little original insight in his commentary won't last long Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
