Putting the past behind us for the man to return and help out free of charge is above and beyond as so many people associated with the club past and present seem to be doing!

 

Thanks billy your a top man

I've slated him many times but fair play to him on this occasion. Great gesture from Billy.

Billy back as No. 2

 

01.07.2013

 

Former Hearts No. 2 Billy Brown has agreed to return to Tynecastle - free of charge.

 

The ex-assistant, who left the club when Jim Jefferies exited in August 2011, returns to Gorgie for his third spell as assistant manager having also previously been at Jefferies' side when the Edinburgh club captured the 1998 Scottish Cup.

 

He will help manager Gary Locke during the Jambos' pre-season training schedule.

 

Gary was first team coach at Tynecastle alongside the duo prior to their departure two years ago and is delighted to be able to call on someone of Billy's experience.

 

"It's an absolute no-brainer for me," Gary told Hearts News.

 

"It's not often you get the chance to get someone of Billy's experience and he's offered to come in and help me out during pre-season which is a magnificent gesture.

 

"I can't do it all on my own and it's obvious I'll need a help so to have Billy in here is a great help. I can't afford to bring in an assistant and it's a measure of the man that Billy was only too willing to help out without getting paid.

 

"He's someone I obviously know very well and I'm delighted to have him here. We are all in this together."

 

Billy, who had spells as Easter Road No. 2 - he was at Hibs when Hearts triumphed 5-1 in the 2012 Scottish Cup Final - and then East Fife manager after leaving Hearts, was due to meet the players this morning before taking his first training session today alongside Gary.

He has heard the call of a man who is strugglin' and strugglin' and strugglin'.

 

Great gesture, and his experience of going places and doing things will be very handy to have around.

Good move. Makes logical sense that a guy with Billy's experience can help the boys with pre-season and it wont cost the club a penny. BB is unemployed and it would keep him in the shop window all to the benefit of Hearts.

 

Personally, I thank him for his gesture.

Agreed, Robbo needs to be in there to show the young guns how its done.

 

This will only work if the three of them get on and have the same footballing ideas. The last thing we need just now is a power struggle.

Posted this on the other thread...

 

His rant at East Fife was the kind of passion I wish more managers displayed. Billy Brown gets it IMO. Also went on Sky and explained himself to Jim White with grace and composure after it, although he didn't take a word back.

 

Welcome back Billy, and thanks again for playing a part in the two greatest victories of the 15 years I've been following Hearts. :thumbsup:

He's still a slavering arsehole. :)

 

At least there'll be no more "WTF does our assistant do?" threads, we'll be able to see him moaning and windmilling on the sideline which will be enough to satisfy the masses.

 

Nice gesture and that though. :thumbsup:

Guess he's working for free so he's not a gamble, would have preferred Jefferies in the coaching team though

You know when you've got a coaching team who inspire confidence, who you look at and know they aren't treating this like any other job and are kicking every ball on the park?

 

Well the thought of Gary Locke, Billy Brown, John Robertson and Darren Murray on our bench pleases me, especially in our current situation.

I think he would have too, but I'm not sure he'd buy himself out of his Dunfermline contract just to come and help out for free at Hearts for maybe only a couple of months. There's certainly not a hope in hell we'd be paying for him.

Always like Billy Brown and if he can do that Spinney Wheel thing with his hands to inspire the players.

Mr Romanov Saviour of HMFC

Can't fault him for doing it for free but he really is a clown. Can only hope he didn't mean what he was saying in that East Fife interview otherwise it's certain relegation.

 

'it is what it is, the players urnae good enough'

 

'Mourinho and Ferguson couldnae dae better'

 

'need a big honest scottish laddie at the back'

 

'av been places and done things'

Welcome home Billy.

 

If only that pesky Fenlon hadn't interfered he'd have had the Hobo's relegated.

Yup, showing a bit of passion shows that he actually cares. That video will haunt him for the rest of his career though :lol:
