Jamboelite Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 put me on ignore then but no need in the personal attack It wasnt a personal attack, he can chose to not put you on ignore and it would be good if you dropped the victim stance recently.

Stuart G Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 put me on ignore then but no need in the personal attack Personal attack, FFS, the guy told you to stop asking him questions, earlier in this thread he said he couldn't say who the other players were yet you kept stating names with question marks and obviously hacking him off, you did it again with McGregor and that is when Notts told you to stop, he wasn't abusive and did not attack you, if you think that is a personal attack you need to grow a pair.

soonbe110 Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 Sorry for asking but are these 2 you talk about quite far down the line to signing and would these be senior players? By the state of our club we might need about 7-8 first team players over the next month to be ready for next season and for it all to come together we need more experienced players. Need more than 7-8. Nine already gone plus Osh, Sam, Johnsen going if there are takers. Noring contract up as well. Could be 13-14 out this summer.

TheBigO Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 Wooooooooooohoooooooooooo!!!!! THIS is a brilliant signing. Just the kind we need. A leader. He's everything our team lacks when it comes to attitude and I doubt he'll be letting others coast through games. A couple more like this and then maybe a wee wild card or two and we're looking good. Love business getting done early too. If we do announce a few signings previous to pre-season, and they're the type we can all get behind, I think the last few months, tough as they were, can almost be put behind us and we can say, that was a mess, let's draw a line and let's effing GO!!!!!

Debut 4 Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 Right away just this one signing will help make the training park a more intense and competitive place. More signings like this will only help. As the squad builds and if we keep adding this type of character, then a nucleus of players setting the tone for future signings can only enhance standards. Standards comes from input and how much you want to work hard. Not ability. Ability only shines with the workrate and application. In my opinion anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamboJen Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 There's a feeling similar to the summer before 05/06 about this. We brought in 7 first teamers despite having a decent spine already with Gordon/Elvis/Webster/Hartley. The signing of Berra almost feels like we're doing the reverse and bringing in the spine (especially if McGinn and McGregor turn out to be true). I was always optimistic about this summer, but am even more so now that the first moves have been made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bauld Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 The good thing about having players like Berra on board is that any foreign imports will quickly learn what is required to play for hearts. They won't get a chance to just go through the motions. At least 3-4 more British isle based players needed though. Preferably experienced in Scottish football.

Dr. Bapswent Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 Whilst I think Berra would be the natural choice for Captain, I don't see the need for this to happen within hours of him signing, other than the theatrics and drama of it which in itself is a reaction to the fans noise. As a result it undermines the reasoning behind the decision, its a lame attempt at getting fans onside with Cathro. and whilst I think the outcome would be the same, I think taking time over it and at least making it look like there was some depth and reasoning behind the decision would have been better than an empty gesture.

To be honest it's marketing isn't it. They are (rightly) worried about season ticket renewals after end of the season, so announcing this signing and having a captain that 'gets Hearts' will perhaps dampen the moaning from a few. If it helps season ticket renewals then it's worked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamboscanbevicius Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 Good move and happy to get this done early. Another part is selling the club to other potential targets IMO.
