Dr. Bapswent Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 FFS is this what's in store until August Pretty much. It's all made up 'could do a job, sign him' threads about players we aren't looking at and have no interest in coming to us or 'what if' pointless threads about things that are made up to fill the metaphorical online silence.

davieholt Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 My brother did. Hearts didn't rate him so signed for hibs at the age of 16. Played once for their reserves then left to play guitar instead (that didn't work out either) he said the boys were treated very well there.

Bazzas right boot Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Aye. I wouldn't sign for Celtic or rangers. Meant to add, if I signed for hibs, means I wasn't good enough for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EreWeG0.. Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 If it was my first game, possibly...but if I had started at hearts then I'd already be a Rudi type antichrist for these vermin shitstains as I'd have wound them up every derby. Edit*- But then again Yeah, sign me and I'll score a last minute OG in the derby and rush to the hearts fans to celebrate.

All roads lead to Gorgie Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 If I was set on becoming a pro yes but if hibs were the only team interested then I would worry I wasn't too great a player.

Guest Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 When I was a laddie here was an utter baw face at Hearts who was also involved at Tynecastle BC. Would rather have signed for that Leith filth than play for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazzas right boot Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Lol The more relevant question on here, would be "would you sign for Hearts?" A good number on here Seem to dislike everything from Budge through to the manager and to the the players. On second thoughts, a number seem to be bailing out supporting us, imagine if they were playing, lose a few games and handing in transfer requests because Thier not happy.

ToadKiller Dog Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Yes of course if I was pursuing a prof career and they were the only choice . If Hearts had turned me down I would also do my best to show them what they had missed out on when the derby came round . If I had the choice between Hibs and anybody in the top league except Hearts Aberdeen and the ugly sisters would likely go for Hibs . My first choice would always be hearts . It's a career and if you are serious about it you have to be sensible . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would like to think I wouldn't celebrate but it likely would as I imagine you would build a bond with team mates which would become strong . Like when you ask a soldier who has been in battle who they end up fighting for they don't say flag or country most tend to say their mates fellow soldiers and family .

If you don't sign with them, you won't ever sign for anyone else. Would you do it? Could you? Yeah but then I probably wouldn't be as big a hearts fan anyhow. Most players who were really good at football at school and who either went pro for a while or were close didn't form the same bonds to one club in my experience. They were too busy playing football all the time. They all had allegiances to a club through family or friends but not at the level of the average fan. Most of us became diehards in our teenage years - by then good players are on the path to being a pro and probably attached to a club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Potter Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Deffo sign for them and score a couple o own goals when playing Hearts. seriously would sign in the hope it would be a stepping stone to get in to the Hearts team, or the English premiership, lol, getting carried away now.
