Pans Jambo Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Bbc where bigging hearts and McLaren up on the show last night and had Dougie Freedman almost rimming Levein. Utter paranoia.Whats paranoia? The rimming or the media's hobby of laughing it up when Hearts slip on their own banana skin? I have seen enough of it down the decades to know that they love to kick any potential challenger to their Glasgow darlings. Thats both off & on the park news. Cant have Hearts getting positive news now can we. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cant have Hearts getting positive news now can we. I can't remember them turning on Aberdeen much when they split the old firm last season and made both cup finals nor when they gave them a run for their money under Deila. McInnes stays, positive all round. Budge gets all the praise in the world. On the pitch they sadly have a point but aye, paranoia. Sell out crowds they love too.

Hearts_fan Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 The Levein picture is a blatant invasion of his privacy, and bang out of order. And a call for Budge to 'have a word in his ear' is patronising and therefore also bang out of order. Levein has no case to answer whatsoever.

Paolo Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 I just don't get why this would even be considered a terrible thing? As long as he's not betting on anything he has any influence over, who cares? In fact, I once tried to place a football bet on Hearts at the Coral on Shandwick place and the boy behind the counter didn't have a scooby. He said we don't normally do many football bets, we are more aimed at racing.I find that surprising. Bookies main source of income is FOBTs. Second is football betting.

Gorillajam Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 He would be able to attract big names to the club. Also a good manager. I just don't think we could afford his salary nor do I think he'd work under levein. Imagine that the former England and Scotland manager at the helms.

Tokyo Drifter Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Can't stand Steve McLaren generally but I have to admit I think he's the guy for us: a wealth of experience, still got loads to offer, clearly likes and is impressed by the club (he was at the 2-0 Rangers game, Robbie's last) and I doubt there's a single player in the whole squad who has ever worked with a manager of his standing. Hopefully they would respond to that and perform accordingly. I'm guessing his continental contacts are pretty good too, having worked at Wolfsburg (albeit briefly) and at FC Twente. Can't see a better candidate. Sorry, Edgar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BelgeJambo Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Does he have a preferred number two that follows him around! I know McPhee will stay but this level of manager normally does have a tried and trusted assistant Paul Simpson.

i wish jj was my dad Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Fair point of course, but all the more reason for the Director of Football and board member of Heart of Midlothian FC to maintain a public profile that doesn't suggest he spends a chunk of his out of office time in the bookies.You really are quite creepy.

luckydug Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 For me it's between McLaren and Freedman. Assuming we can afford the salaries of course. If we can't afford them then it would be someone like Houston but we must have someone with good experience this time.

I'm guessing a shortlist of 5 (because it's a nice number) of MacLaren, Freedman, Pressley, Boothroyd and Hartley. And that's probably wrong as the press has said there are names in the frame that haven't got out, although why they wouldn't release them I don't know. So not sure if that's to be believed. I only didn't include Houston and O'Neill because I assume we'd need permission to speak to their employers and all that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
