To be frank I trust him to score more than any of our current forwards and for that reason I'd love it if he signed for us. Wighton & Keena out on loan and Laff in would be lovely. This. Folk thinking he would purposefully miss a goal against Rangers 🤣 Despite your opinions on the man’s character, he’s still a football professional.

chazza74 Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 People in here desperate to sign Cummings, same guy who giruy to us at Easter road but wouldn’t take a proven goalscorer back .

heartandsoul Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 Was buzzing when we signed Lafferty and most of the Hearts support took to him as he did to us. However as soon as sevco came calling and he signed for his beloved newco that changed everything. He was well looked after by Hearts and then proceeded to throw it all away. So it's a no from me regarding him coming back. He made his bed so let him lie in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We got a great deal selling him to Rangers and I’d be astonished if Levein even gave it a second thought to bring him back. As someone else said on here if money’s available for another wage then a new goalie would be more sensible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulHartley10 Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 I'd take him back but it seems Levein's comments about his IQ are bang on.

chester copperpot Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 I couldn't care who he supports, what his leniances are if he can find the onion bag, then he's ok with me. Some players suit certain clubs. Rudi was shite pretty much everywhere else but was an absolute legend for us. In his one season here, Kyle was brilliant. For that reason I'd have him back. Only if it doesn't piss off Naismith though. Naismith, Washington and Lafferty is a top 3 front line IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goldie83 Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 Get him signed!! 20 goals in 44! Numerous against the Hibs and Celtic! Why would anyone not want him.....”he brings out the worst in some sections of the crowd”, “he left us for Sevco” .......who cares. Hearts have become this Nancy, nice club where were all supposed to be super friendly and family orientated. I get that to some degree but looks what’s happening on th pitch. The mentality is wrong. So wrong! Yes a few neds might bring their union jacks and sing a song or two. Oh no how am I going to sleep at night. 2 neds had a Union Jack.......I need Budge to “stamp” it out. As for going to Sevco it’s the lads club if I was a Hamilton player and once lived the dream and played for Hearts and had the chance to go back there for extra cash that I was on also I’d be off quicker than he was! Get back to winners, characters and people that know what it means to play for the famous and we’ll get back on the road to success. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

busby1985 Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 He’s as daft as a bag of frogs and one of the stupidest people you’ll ever meet but he scores goals. Every player has a club that just suits them, Rudi, Hartley, Naismith more recently and Lafferty as well. I wouldn't care he loves Rangers, I wouldn’t care that he wants them to do well etc if he was doing the business for us. Let’s also not pretend he’s only just fallen in love with Rangers, he loved them when he became the closest hearts striker to bag 20 goals in a season since Robbo. He also talks very highly of us and always happy to see us do well. I’d take him back in a heart beat, but it’s not going to happen. Levein and Budge won’t want him back, he’d also have some making up to do with Berra as they’ve fell out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
