Cup competitions rely on good form, lucky draws, and good fortune with injuries when you have a squad like ours without sufficient cover for a bad set of injuries. As I said, we can hope to get a run in cup competitions but should not budget for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure that the club is able to gauge the feeling of the support at the games. The reaction from the fans in attendance at the end of the League Cup debacle almost certainly cost Cathro his job. Still, you're perfectly entitled to communicate with the club in any way you see fit. I'm glad you brought this up. While the stadium was up in arms, JKB wanted to keep Cathro... Same people will still be here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no evidence that Cathro would have not done as well as Levein with the benefit of Berra, Lafferty and Souttar in the team . His teams would probably have conceded more and scored more. He was certainly capable of going to Mwell and knocking 3 past them. Without Naismith and Lafferty. How we could have done with tgat 3 weeks ago!! So we lost to a last minute goal in a LC group stage game away to Peterhead. Disaster? No. We lost to Montrose at home under Doddie in the August after losing the league at Dens...i dont remember a clamour for his head. Nobody knows, not you or any of your fellow worshippers , how IC would have done this season. I wanted him sacked at the time but, in retrospect, seeing where we are now, it was possibly tge wrong decision. Anyway, I'm done with this argument. Whether we've improved under Levein from how we were under Cathro isn't a point of view, it's a cold hard fact that we have, and a completely obvious one.

I didn't say it was a mistake, I said that was possibly the wrong decision. Others are quite happy to pedal the myth that any failings this season are down to Cathro. Of course, they're not. Cathro took over his first managerial post halfway through the season and didn't get a lot of time to prove himself. Its important to inject a bit of balance in to the debate. Fwiw, I remember that Gary Locke was hung out to dry here after being replaced...even when he found subsequent employment at Killie. Its always far easier to blame the previous incumbent. He didn't last long at Killie, and subsequently didn't last long at Raith either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last Email I sent to the club was after the County game in Dingwall. We never even tried to win the game, against a dreadful County. Yet that was over a 1000 of us made the trip up. Lots of unhappy people. As I have said before, this was my last away game of the season as following Hearts under Levein is torture and unacceptable. He has a serious mindset issue away from home.

If the football is constantly improving and we are at least having a go, I don't think many would complain. This is Hearts we are talking about after all. If the football is crap, the squad a shambles, 4 years into a 5 year plan, you have to think twice though. Levein will clearly get another window but there will be no hiding place from this one.

Bazzas right boot Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 3 hours ago, Thomaso said: Nice spin Tosh. There are many PHM who support their team both financially and attendance wise, who are less that happy with the current football management of their Club and have every right to express their views on JKB. Doesn't mean they are moaning twats tho, and maybe those that also do as you say get a bit annoyed when the discussion clearly goes beyond performance. and gets personal towards things Hearts. No spin, just supporters sick of greetin face bairns and who enjoy sticking up for their team when things aren't going great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact, I would suggest that if more people did it, the club would be in a significantly better place. Although expressing opinions on JKB, can be interesting, we do seem to be very accepting on here, of whatever we are served up from Hearts. Supporters attending in the stadiums and especially on wider social media, seem far less tolerant of poor club management. The club has a PR department and it is important they understand the feelings from the entire support base. Have you considered hiring a plane to get your point across? I mean if it made sense to hire one for Neilson when he was comparatively much better than Cathro and Levein.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From Levein on the season ticket brochure: "Our aim is to build a squad capable of challenging at the top end of the Premiership and to get to latter stages of cup competitions" This is another reason why this guy should be nowhere near out football club. His remit should be for us to win trophies, not just compete. Sums up quite well Levein's mindset and expectations. Levein spoke about wings. You just flew.

innerjambo Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 The bottom line is that the jury is still out with Levein. Some think he will deliver, and some think he won't. His brand of football however, will always be controversial with certain sections of our support, and probably justified. He is about to enter a different era with Heart of Midlothian, that's for sure. We demand more from the team, rightly or wrongly. We've had a taste of dominating in the Championship, and the fans like it, but not only that, they are raising their expectations and want the club to deliver.The next 6 or 7 months are going to be very interesting.
