Trouble is we can all see it except the blind academy that is running Hearts at the moment. If AB doesn’t seriously act after the final, regardless of the score then her business plan will be shot to pieces. Our 5 year plan won’t achieve her aims on the park. You can’t put all the fancy plans in place for the new stadium and corporate facilities when the product on the park is absolutely awful. She needs some real football coaches in place and not these Imposter wage thieves. I’m sure she thinks tactics are these wee mint sweeties you get that are also available in orange flavour too. Fans are starting to vote with their feet. I thought we couldn’t get any worse after last season but this season has been excruciating.

The cup final will look after itself as a day out with a decent financial return. To be honest, having Frank Drebin as our manager would probably give us more of a chance in the final. If we cannot get ourselves up for a game at home against the team 2nd in the league, we have a problem. What got me was the fact we were 2-0 down yesterday and had a throw in over at the Wheatfield and there was not a single player looking for the pass. Instead they took their time walking over from the centre of the pitch. The stats only back up what we all know looking at the results but what is more concerning is the clear lack of passion. The players couldn’t care any less. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you keep up your pathetic vendetta against our manager. Whilst not totally untrue, there is not a team in the league that couldn't say if only this player was fit or if only the ref hadn't robbed us. Managers need to find a way to win. The whole season turned on the Naismith injury. The style of play changes, the attitude changes. That's on the manager to fix it. Reminds me of Robbie's season when we got beat off Aberdeen, everything changed because of one result, the confidence, the style, the attitude. Bad management. We were outplayed by Dundee at home. There is a lackadaisical attitude which need fixing and it's not getting fixed. Edited April 21, 2019 by jambopilms Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Francis Albert Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 (edited) Of course we will all be delighted, at least for a few months, if we win the cup. But the league stats make pretty grim reading and to me seem to sum up our season pretty well. Our competitors are (or should be) the top six and just looking at the table tells you all you need to know. Top six GD +54, +51, +16,+17, +15, minus 5. Goals for 71,76,53,46, 49, 39 Goals against 17,25,37,29,34,44 Points 77,69,61,58,52, 50 I can't hold out much hope for any improvement after the last four games This suggests the even with our great start our points total actually flatters us. I find it also hard to enthuse too much over cup runs where we have to date faced and lost heavily to one top six team and to date have beaten narrowly a grand total of one team in the top flight.

I like uche but given the way he is ref'd we cant use him as well as we'd like. He has had a positive impact but we lack mobility around him meaning he often ends up giving away the foul waiting for players to find positions for a pass or like yesterday...chooses to shoot(badly), when a cross is on. I do think he's a work in progress and that we'll see a better player next season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bongo 1874 Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 Top 3 and a semi final in either of the cups depending on the draw should be the minimum for any hearts manager we have done well in the cups this year but our league form is not what it should be.

Yes but I'd feel more confident of celebrating if I hadn't watched the stuff we've seen over the last six months and if we were at least good enough to be contenders for a European place in the league. And if we begin the league next season in the way we have played in the last six months any celebrations will not last long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given our luck with the draws we have done about the minimum we could have expected in the cups. Of course 25th May could change that.
