I think we can say that looks like being a reality now? what are the thoughts that the board have decided to stick with that and maximise what we can take out of the season financially ie. minimise wages and max out on transfer fees brought in ? It seem strange that we have not strengthened the squad when to pursue top or second spot would necessitate that be do.

Pans Jambo Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 We are easy 3rd with who we have now. Never mind who comes in in the next 4 hours or so. Oh, and we will progress to the Scottish cup semi at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Debut 4 Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 Ffs.....if people actually break it down we've lost 1 significant player, loaned out 2 bit part and may lose a so-so young player but get a decent fee. We've signed an able replacement for one of the loanees and may yet sign another couple before the day is out. All in all we've lost one regular, key player.

If the way Hearts fans on here have reacted over losing one key player is anything to go by, its no wonder Uniteds home attendance is literally, well, dead.

jock _turd Posted February 1, 2016 Author Share Posted February 1, 2016 What is wrong with people. Look sorry I did word that badly what I should have said " we are happy to stick with what appears to be possible" Not top six because as I have said in my post we are already top six. But the other days the place was in melt down re Sow going and how we were going to need a good forward in replace him hence my question which remains unanswered .... are the board pursuing a policy of making as much financial gain out of our playing staff by letting players go out on loan etc and following their game plan... not that I am complaining if that is the strategy because to me it make a lot of sense.

Jodami Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 Revised targets, selling players like we can't pay the bills, big huddie targets that Levein prefers, following the Petrie blueprint, signing has beens, the list goes on.

Bazzas right boot Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 Jesus. We have lost/ losing a player that was going to sign a pre contract and leave in the Summer, we seem to be getting ?1m +. Gomis, who is a decent squad player has been replaced with, what on paper would seem better quality King, who is behind Walker and Sam has gone on loan Mghee, might also be gone, hes hardly played in 2 seasons. I agree we do need to strengthen but the meltdown and prattle about settling for 6th when we are 3rd is just nonsense. Jesus. This place needs closed down for a few weeks.Some folk need to sit down, take a deep breath and think before bashing the keyboard. Yip, or Some people need to close down for a few weeks!

R1874 Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 3rd + massive income transfers would be good season. I've had enough drama involving Hearts for a lifetime. I'd rather we didn't break the bank in the dream of reaching Aberdeen (or Celtic!) just to avoid an extra qualifying round in the Europa League. We could sell another 5 players and there would be danger of us falling below 6th. Granted there are no injuries then we will easily take 3rd which, in our first year back up, is a great achievement.

Paolo Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 If we don't finish at least third now, it will be very disappointing, regardless of what happens before midnight. I fully expect us to be successful in that regard though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bighusref Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 We paid a six figure transfer fee for a 19 year old centre back that is arguably our third choice centre back at the moment. We've sold a striker for ?1.5 Million that we could've kept for four months but lost for free. Our target? This window tells us that our target is next season already. We've got third sewn up, we will win the cup and we will already have a head start on 2016/2017. It's looking good folks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
