frankblack Posted May 4, 2019 Share Posted May 4, 2019 9 minutes ago, buzzbomb said: I was responding to a post saying someone not renewing will not be missed. I was saying that’s not true and if enough don’t renew, even 500 that it is significant financially. You may be right re ST sales as the fans are loyal, but I’m speaking to long-term, thick and thin supporters who are totally shanned off. Fair enough. Every end of season we get this if the team hasn't been spectacular. When push comes to shove its a choice between spending their Saturdays dragged along the shops with their Mrs or watching the Hearts, and most will renew.

jambonian Posted May 4, 2019 Share Posted May 4, 2019 Football is different now. Gone are the days when we played fairly regularly in European competitions, and not just us. Football was actually better in the 80s. We had a competitive league with the likes of Celtic, Hearts, Aberdeen, Dundee Utd and Rangers more evenly matched. I remember being more worried about playing Dundee Utd or Aberdeen than I ever was against the bigot brothers. Hibs were always a club just happy to avoid relegation under Alex Miller every season, and rightly so. Used to enjoy going to middens like Dumbarton's Boghead, Hamilton's Douglas Park and Airdrie's Broomfield. What chance for European football these days for us when the Champions League has ruined the game? Atmosphere has gone from footy which is also a factor. Poor football creates poor atmospheres. Scared to swear incase some wallflower is offended. Sorry but sometimes an expletive pops out through frustration then you realise there's kids around you. That's if you're not getting the back of your seat booted to hell by one. It's all changed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has often used a high press which is a very modern style, as is a formation with one main striker. I also don’t remember many teams playing 3 at the back in the 80s. Levein has played some different formations and setups this season and we are proven by stats not to be a long ball team so what is this style you seem so sure of. (And not playing well is not a style). I have absolutely no idea what style of football he plays - but it is terrible to watch and brings no positive results. I can't remember when we last won a game convincingly. Every week it is a complete struggle, don't you think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We may not always like the way we play, but he knows what he's doing and has brought us back from the horror days and where we were heading Absolute nonsense we have finished 6th and 6th and its dull and boring to watch.

Its about Hearts failure to even get close to 4th, yes 4th place in a 12 team league. Never mind third we are absolutely nowhere near good enough to break into the top 4 at the moment. Despite finishing 3rd in our first season back after that we have been nowhere!!! We have probably signed more players than every other team in the league over the last 2 years and are still miles away. I know we won’t win all the time but I expect a team who will compete and leave everything on the pitch every time they play and also have belief we can win against the other top 6 teams regularly. Under Levein we will never have that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
