Bob Loblaw Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 If he can stay fit he will be an asset. I wonder if we've lined up some kind of extension beyond the summer if it works out for both parties? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tenor Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Why is his Wiki page locked? I wonder if it is due to the barrage of edits it suffered the other day. People who only use Wikipedia need to know he is now a JAMBO!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMA MAROON Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Having seen Beattie play for a few clubs in the championship I have to say that, if fit, he's exactly the type of player who will fit into Sergio's system. Able to play up front on his own, hold the ball, and link with midfielders. Neil Warnock was a huge fan of his. The biggest question mark is his fitness, and he's not the fastest on two legs (the reason he didn't feature much for the Jacks). At 4 goals a season he is not a goalscoring frontman so hope he can set up a few goals for those round about him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
south morocco Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Glad he's signed on and he sounds like a decent guy , a wee bonus signing going into the last part of the season ,well done HMFC, BBC link http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/scotland/17146915?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superhearts Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Craig Beattie offers a different option tactically upfront to the Hearts which has been missing since Sutton moved His goal ratio is pretty poor. but hopefully the role of targetman retaining the ball and allowing other players to move into forward positions will bring goals to the team regardless of who scores. Good luck Craig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paolo Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 It's not negativity! it's pragmatism. We are continually shite. We don't score. We don't create many chances. We don't win away from home. We struggle at home. We are boring. Our manager is ubber shite. It is not going to miraculously change ffs. OK call me psychic but i'm seeing a zero after our name tomorrow. Your not a very good psychic if you can not even get the days of the week right.

Maroonblood22 Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Good signing Can't believe some of the snobs on here complaining. ^This! Some of the negativity towards this transfer on here is quite honestly mental! People seem to forget the position our club is in and the grim times we've experienced of late. Signing any player never mind a former international and EPL striker on a free is pretty good business considering, it's a great positive move by Hearts. The fact that poster's on here are grumbling because he's not a '20 goal a season striker' is quite simply laughable!

Tommy Wiseau Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Loving it. Can't decide what I'm most pleased about - having a new striker who I reckon is/was pretty handy, or the fact that some of the internet's worst posters lined up to tear into boys who have been proven bang on, some not for the first time. :greggy: OK, I can decide, it's definitely the new striker thing.

Francis Albert Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Had a look on Wiki and Beattie's goalscoring record is worse than Elliott's. I don't know how we do it.

I hope Craig does a great job for us, but the hype on here (in this and other threads more than a page for every goal he has scored in ihis entire career) is absurd, and raising expectations beyond all reason isn't doing Craig any favours.
