topcat Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 He's about my age so he must be coming up for retirement soon and given that there may well be a requirement coming up at Tynie for a Slovakian-English translator who's familiar with Scottish Football he might be just the fellow. He could double up by doing some coaching as well. Which I think is how Mourinho got started. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron 5 Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 Thought injury forced him out the game when he left Hearts. He done his knee when playing for us and dont think he ever recovered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He could double up by doing some coaching as well. Which I think is how Mourinho got started. I was thinking exactly the same thing and was researching him the other day but could not find a spec of info. Was it not that his time ended at Hearts because of injuries. I always remember him as a classy player however I was too young to really remember him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STRETCHER Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 Hopefully he would be better at coaching than he was at playing.?:wacko: He was a real class act and captian of his national side. No one in the current squad is better than he was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flogel98 Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 Always rated the Hawk. Done his knee at the tattie bowl and never recovered. Think it was a challenge from the ex-hobo IIRC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan_R Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 He became a coach. So hes probaly at some slovakian team coaching. If FM08 is to be believe he is an unemployed coach on the latest update. Not a great source of information I know, but for that sort of thing I figure it is about right. One of my fav players too. I'd love to see him back at tynie in a coaching capacity.

cousinsofnoone Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 According to Stanislav Varga, he is working in an administrative (by inference, fairly junior) capacity for the Slovak FA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember the game he got the injury that ended his career against Celtic at Tynie - never made it back after that. I dont doubt he began as a promising signing ( NT Captain and all that ) I'm just saying that I can't honestly remember him making any impression on me ? Sheesh, just checked London Hearts and it reckons ( unless I've read it wrong ) that he made 30 starts in 2000-2001 I would have been at all the home games too, yet about the only recollection I have is of him walking down the stand with his wee sprog !

Denny Crane Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 He started slowly but once he found his feet was a class act who had a rough time with injuries Also, both he and his wife really found adjusting to life in Edinburgh to be quite a struggle - let's just say the club's support network was not all that hot. Once he things began to smoothe over he did start showing signs of why we signed him until that horrific injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
