I P Knightley Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 The title sounds like it could be a round in Mock the Week. If "Levein" is not the answer, what would the question have been? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Debut 4 Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Think it's petty naming and shaming although some have come across as OTT in their criticism. We all get things wrong and right when it comes to football and in truth we haven't achieved anything yet. Maybe at the end of the season if we've finished top 3 and maybe won a trophy this could be dredged up but it'll be locked now probably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Ann Budge doesn't pull the trigger on this whilst she is there I hope to hell it happens on Day 1 of the FOH board running the club. God knows what state we'll be in by then if he allowed to carry on. Glad you weren’t in charge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure I agree IMO Levein comes in for some unjust criticism from the MSM and the least he should get is the support of the Hearts fans. Some of our supporters took it too far and can now reap what they sow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurboT Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Hendricks hasn’t posted since we drew with Raith back in July. I’m sure he’ll be back the next time we drop points.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hearts are getting worse and if we keep him much longer we'll be relegated. One other thing today is we must of had the worst left back that has ever played in Scottish football. Why Levein plays this gadgy must make Budge and the board, never mind the fans, wonder what goes on in Leveins head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's an ideal situation. Escobar still contributes occasionally , last time Hendricks was on was July giving me shit for believing we had the potential to be a far more attacking threat this season. Like life you get ppl who can say they were wrong , some who say it in a roundabout way or caveat it then others who just can’t or won’t. This season is still young , we will have ups and downs but we are now where i think we should of been 3years ago and we need to push forward from there.

It could be seen as petty, but it's hardly surprising given the personal attacks on CL and others at the club, the deliberate sh!tstirring, attempts to insinuate things like he's just using the club to line his pockets, etc. Some of the posts in this thread are completely out of order and quite frankly disgusting. Certain posters deserve to be called out over it now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of other posters who criticised Levein are now coming on eating humble pie, admitting they are happy to be proven wrong and just happy that we are doing so well. That's fine in my view as we all have our own opinions and some of us are more optimistic than others. Certain posters are very notable by their absence though and I doubt we'll hear much from them again unless things take a drastic down turn.

PhoenixHearts Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Doesn't it feel so great knowing you were completely behind Craig from the get-go and you don't have to hide under your bed or eat any crow?! UP YE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UP YE! That pretty much sums up how I feel. I've always looked at the longer term picture, and never doubted that Craig was the right man to take us forward. There will always be a few bumps in the road, and to be fair the Cathro appointment was a pretty massive bump, but I was never in doubt that Craig would get us back on track. My only surprise is how quickly he has managed to transform things since taking over the managerial reins again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
