Rudy T Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 16 minutes ago, Jammy T said: I’m genuinely gobsmacked at where we appear to be going. And that’s is coming from somebody that has constantly backed the current board and management. God knows how those who were sceptical are feeling - no dig intended. I’m absolutely with you on this. Backed Levein and knew he would get us back on track but I’m stunned at the level of investment in the team. This is a build like no other and with the backdrop of the new stand it’s incredible stuff. We really are going for it. My ambitions were 3rd and at least a couple of jaunts to Hampden for this season I think it’s safe to say thankfully the board seem more ambitious than me.

Phil D. Corners Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Welcome Sean. I like Sheffield, but considering it’s the 5th biggest city in the UK and can’t produce a premier league team their fans can bolt when belittling Hearts.

The ammount of competition for places now in what was our weakest area of the park is astonishing. Dont play well and you could be straight on the bench. Wonder if we’ll see Bozanic go out on a short term loan to one of the other teams in the pack like Burns & Edwards have? dont think Bozanic would go on loan as I think he is great back up and think he fills in for Lee. He can control possession in midfield and link. Saw a A-League journalist surprised (and disappointed) that he is only on the bench for us. The depth we have in this squad is crazy and will make a big difference for us this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

copa-mundial Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 This could be a major signing right here. All you need to do is have a look at Sheffield Wednesday's fans forum and they're seriously pissed that he's signed for us. They didn't want him to go. Sitting proud 5 points clear at the top. This very promising signing announced today. Competition for places in the starting xi meaning high standards have to be met. We have some of the best youngsters in the country. The arrival of Vanecek in January. Mr Levein. Make it happen. One thing that does surprise me is, I Thought Vanecek was a certainty for the number 9 jersey.

Manny1874 Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Credit to Craig Levein for recognising that this Hearts team (which is unbeaten this season, has a perfect record in the league, and is five points clear at the top of the table) just isn't good enough, and needed reinforcement.

Scnorthedinburgh Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 8 minutes ago, Barack said: Do they not have TV's in England? They're only yardstick is to play against a Scottish team, and deem Scotland worthy of a look? Rather than watching SKY or BT Sport regularly? Infrastructure at different clubs, support, better wages, more chances of playing in 1st team up here, than lower league teams. All more valid reasons. Uche didn't make his choice, on the back of being blown away by Aberdeen's resilience. Aberdeen did well, there's no dispute. To say it's responsible for an influx of English players on that basis is stupid. Imo. We won't agree on this matter. So rather than take a positive thread off topic, I'll leave it there. Fair enough. I work in England and trust me that tie opened a lot of eyes to how good the spfl is. No one I work with watches Scottish football, and that includes th OF matches.

JamboAl Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 1 hour ago, Deevers said: Brilliant signing. . Best squad I have seen here for a long time. The Levein haters must be spewing. Conspicuous by their absence. AB was also heavily criticised for advertising for a manager/head coach, conducting interviews and then deciding she already had the best man in the building. Still early days but it doesn't look like a bad call to me. She also vowed to revamp our scouting system last season. Was that a good call? It's time some on here started to take a deeper and longer term view of what is going on. Things do look rosy at the moment but that does not mean plain sailing ahead (although I hope so) but if we do meet some stormy weather, a little understanding is required not unfounded criticism.
