Not really tbh, last season could easily have been significantly better. We led the table for a decent portion of the season and we’re only 6 points off top at New Year. We also made the semi final in one cup and narrowly lost the final of the other. “6th” overall is shit but if even a couple more games went in our favour it could have been our most successful season in decades.

daveyhmfc Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 Let's all be honest. We are all desperate to see some new faces but nobody has any real idea what work is going on behind the scenes. If it takes us a little longer to get some decent quality in, then our patience will have been rewarded. The transfer window is a marathon not a 100m sprint. That said, it is clearly preferable to get players in earlier to help them gel with their new teammates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only real questions are who the striker will be and if Djoum is being replaced. Djoum might stay or if he goes Levein might decide to let Cochrane, Smith and Irving battle it out for game time in the midfield. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bistokid Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 We may be in a position where we need to move people on before we act on some of this. In terms of forwards hopefully we can move on the wide players but strikers we still have a few. Possibly trying to find a taker for MacLean and Wighton for example. In midfield we could be looking at moving on Lee, Edwards and Bozanic before we bring someone. At least I hope we are looking at this area - plenty of bodies but little quality.

Clearly has a lot of ability, scored some incredible goals in his career, but seems to go missing for large chunks of a match. Lee's ability aligned to the graft of Edwards would be some player.

Tynieman Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 (edited) You know what really is annoying... Every thread is hijacked with the same posters again and again. If these posters are actually supporters (which for the majority, I doubt), do they remember where our club was, almost extinct, and consider where we are now? They constantly ruin threads by going on and on about Levien and Mrs Budge. We, even in recent memory, have struggled both on and off the field massively in comparison we are now. We have been a much, much poorer side than we are currently. Granted, last season was average but that's what following the club is about. We're still rebuilding. We are actually in the best position as a club than we have been in my lifetime. Those idiots who scream for Budge to leave are either thick or in my opinion, unhappy she's trying to stop the bigotry nonense which in my experience, affects them most. Can I ask those posters, do they realise Budge saved the club, literally? Also, how long have they supported Hearts? It can't be that long if you think we're poor now. Either that or they have short memories...or just trolls. A semi final and a SC final, albeit whilst finishing 6th in the league, is not a diaster. People should realise how much we have come on as a club, and actually start backing it. Can the admin not start banning people if they don't adhere to this?
