Dusk_Till_Dawn Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 Agree, thought that was a little odd. A key first team position. Tbf to the recruitment department though, they need to get the message to Nigeria Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walter Bishop Posted May 5, 2017 Author Share Posted May 5, 2017 Is this what Jon hill done before heading to Mk Dons Yeah i think so, a real popular figure amongst the players. His leaving is a contributory factor people dont take into account during our form of the last 5/6 months imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamboJen Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 It's sensible that the club are inviting applicants for this sort of role. Although there may be some candidates the coin will already be aware of and may choose to approach anyway, there's no harm in seeing who else may be available/interested. Although the job specifications say 5 years of experience in professional football, I'm sure if someone came from a high level in another team sport and could show their transferable skills the club would listen to what they had to say.

Advertise and head hunt. Crazy world we live in. Advertising externally is in line with good recruitment practice, Diversity, equal opportunities, etc. Even if you do eventually head hunt some one.

Maroon Sailor Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 bit of a couple managing to get him from West ham. Some people thought that about Cathro getting him away from Newcastle. He needs to be able to get on with his job and put his methods in place first and foremost. If it ties in with the way Cathro wants Hearts to shape up then that's a good foundation to build on.

Neilson's Shank Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 Essential to pay top dollar given the key role that he will play. Had a feeling that the players could not apply Cathro's game plan over the full 90 minutes. John Hill was a big loss as the fitness and mental sharpness left with him.

Our fitness has been poor I believe or maybe we are just slow Agree with this SG. John Hill's loss had as much an impact on our decline in the 2nd half of last year as anything else. We seemed to go from one of the fittest teams in the league to be blowing out our arses in the latter stages of games. Welcome to the Famous Tom!!
