graygo Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 The great man will be in town this weekend to watch us pumping the wee team Be good to get a song going for him seeing as it means so much to him it almost brings him to tears. http://www.deadlinenews.co.uk/2018/01/17/former-hearts-boss-paulo-sergio-loves-returning-to-edinburgh-despite-being-betrayed/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
graygo Posted January 18, 2018 Author Share Posted January 18, 2018 His presence is certain to trigger a rendition of his song and the 49-year-old admits hearing the fans sing his name is very special. He said: “It’s fantastic. Last time I was in Edinburgh, I was in the stadium and they were singing it. “For me, I want to cry – it’s very, very emotional for me. “Sometimes when some friends meet here and drink some beers, they start singing that and send me videos to my phone. It’s great for me. “I just have to say thanks for everybody because I really, really appreciate the way everyone treats me here. I hope one day I can return.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boab Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Well if you read social media, Sergio, you'll always be a legend at Hearts. That will never change. The financial state of the club was another story and is something that had to change. We were on a rocky road and the fans saved the club. All the best for the future, wherever that may be.

Locky Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 No wonder. We replaced him with John McGlynn. Seriously though, going into the era we went into, keeping a guy like Sergio as manager could’ve helped us maintain stability on the park as much as possible. However, it’s the previous ownership who betrayed him, not the club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cosanostra Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 He'll always be a hero but some detail would be needed before forming an opinion. I mean, if they were wanting to pay him 5k a week instead of 10k, then that's hardly surprising given the way that the club was being run. If they were wanting to pay him 2k a week instead of 4k a week then he's every right to feel like that. I'm sure I can remember him being on a pretty hefty wage. Maybe we just couldn't afford him.

Special Agent Dale Cooper Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 I'm sure I remember reading at the time that his previous club was effectively paying half his wages by means of a severance deal and that was coming to an end. We couldn't afford the shortfall left from that hence Paulo being offered half his current wages. If true I guess it's an example of the harsh realities of Scottish football finances.

Paolo Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 I like Sergio, and wish he was here for longer, but we simply had to slash costs big style, so we had no option. Sergio and his assistants would not have been cheap, so sadly a parting of ways was inevitable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skacelsid Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Paulo is part of our History, and led us to a famous cup win with very limited resources as the Romanov empire was falling apart around him and we were heading into the dark days of administration, no manager would have survived that time. I was proud to have Paulo Sergio as our manager, even for that short time, the guy had class even in the very difficult circumstances he found himself in. Would like to see him presented to the crowd before the kick-off on Sunday as he is in Scotland I believe, I wish him well, top man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jodami Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 I may be wrong here but were we not only paying half of his salary that season as he was still under contract with a Portuguese side but had been placed on gardening leave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of my memories of the second half was being so disappointed that we completely took our foot of the gas. Revenge for 7 was there in our hands and Paulo Sergio voluntarily ignored it to save their 'dignity'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamhammer Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Actually said on STV News last night that he applied for the manager's job but joked he didn't think the position was open.

Spellczech Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Great manager for us. Shame he was one of the last of Vlad's picks rather than the first...

Kevin Kyle also got released in March I think but he had been injured throughout and had never played for Sergio. Other than Stevenson we didn't lose players that would have started the cup final but the squad was obviously stretched. Rudi got kept on on another loan deal and we got Beattie in, without those two it would have been a very mediocre season!. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
