4marsbars Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 Best captain in over 50 years of watching Hearts, though if we'd had Berra for more of his career I'd be prepared to revise that. I might write my usual post in defence of Pressley but that would be a waste of effort. We who saw him play will not forget what he gave for the cause (everything). I don't care what he did when wearing a different colour. No doubt the usual easily-offended types will be getting upset about him trying too hard against us or something. Boo hoo.

Rudy T Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 There’s no denying he’s no very good at management!

JohnB Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 Being a great leader on the park doesn't always translate into what's required to be a great manager. He was certainly the former and he'll always have my thanks and respect for that - no-matter what the armchair critics say to the contrary. I wish him luck in his ongoing managerial career but I have to admit to having nagging doubts about his abilities in this arena. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 Last interview I seen with him was him stating how he would now consider managing in the Scottish Premiership as it was now at a level he considered suitable - as if he was Jose Mourinho or Arsene Wenger.

Nice that you can’t have an opposite opinion on here without sanity, insecurity or intelligence being questioned. I think when he left and signed for Celtic, majority of Hearts fans understood and to an extent wished him well. His actions that day and in several interviews since have shown what an egotistical disrespectful, self serving man he is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
