Watt-Zeefuik Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 Difficult situation for him, I'm really not sure how much he is to blame. I may get pelters for saying this but I'm really not sure Gary Locke could have done any better given the constraints. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the difference in the world imo. To answer in the terms you are raising, it probably is not a major difference in terms of what the clubs pay. The big difference is much more likely to be in terms of what their contractors pay. For the 6 accredited clubs referred to, Hearts being the only Scottish club, the contractors pay the living wage.

DH1986 Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 Anyone who is having a go at SAF for not taking any Hearts players to Mexico ‘86 needs to sit back and have a word with themselves. Whilst the 85/86 Hearts team was a great team the majority of players in isolation weren’t international standard, Henry was never going to shift Jim Leighton and Gorman was a better GK. The only defender with a chance was Levein.....he was immense that season but a World Cup is no place to chuck in a rookie CH.....not when you have established guys like Miller, McLeish, Narey and Gough available. We had no midfielders worthy of a shout. JC and Robbo weren’t going to be picked over experienced guys like Archibald, Nicholas, Sharp and Sturrock. Plus......McCoist, McClair and Mo Johnstone were all ahead of Robbo and JC at that point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rudi must stay Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 I have lost a lot of my respect for them and also their fans. So entitled, 6 years without a title and this, Hearts haven't won a title in decades. As for Mourinho, I think what Ferguson always dreaded has happened, he has lost control, Pogba should have gone for his comments. 100%. The players are quite frankly taking the p just now, going through the motions with £200,000 a week in their pocket. I don't see any way they can even finish in the top 6 this year, they would have to improve dramatically Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
