chester copperpot Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 I've been told that we're in talks with someone. Any idea's who. I aint gonna reveal sources, because I was so far off the mark with Weiss. So has anyone got idea's who it is? This might get moved to the Gullit lounge.

I aint gonna reveal sources, because I was so far off the mark with Weiss. So has anyone got idea's who it is? This might get moved to the Gullit lounge. Think at this point I think that Hearts will not want the person named until they have pen on paper as if they are serious about being hearts manager than they shouldn't talk to the press as this has been the mistake in the past. hopefully it means it is a non-pyramid manager, maybe even Santini as he said he would say no more until there was something more in place.

Hugh Watt Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 If we are in talks with someone then that would at least fit in with Frail leaving. - what makes this situation any different from the talks we've allegedly been having since January? And why would Frail sitting his UEFA licence be big news one day then he's gone the next?... Whether your for or against Frail, something smells very vlad here, this doesn't sound its been pre-planned, this sounds like a romanov knee-jerk execution. Pre-season preparation? - total joke.
