Dithered over the penalty and then should have saved it.

2nd came and went down too early. Stand taller longer makes it harder for the striker.

Horrible defending from Berra for both goals but, I think a better keeper doesn’t concede either 

 

Shame we didn't still have Big Jon Mclaughlin.

Agree on the pen and Berra for both , second one though I think you have to credit Edouard as that was a great finish in those circumstances , blaming Bobby is a bit harsh imo

Would have made a difference to both our league and cup campaigns, imo.

 

Very reliable GK.

 

Fine margins.

Our goalie is meh and has been found out on the big occasions - twice.

 

Sure, let's change the squad every year and buy players contracts out because they made some mistakes. How many mistakes did Henry Smith make? Rousset?

 

Sometimes you have to stick with what you've got and try to improve them.

Found and signed by Levein, and offered a contract extension he turned down. I'm sure he can uncover more players of similar quality.

He's some guy our Craig. He seems to do all the jobs himself, I don't know why he bothers to have any staff.

Well he was manager and DoF combined at that time.

Whoosh!

 

If you think Zlamal has the ability of a Smith or Rousset you are deluded.

There was an opening for you to demonstrate how even-handed you are Davy and you've passed it up.

I don't think a goalie is high up our recruitment list, do you, unless someone like CG is available? There are much more important priorities.

He’s got a tendency to go down early. Watch any penalty he’s failed to save (Every one he’s faced I think). He was really unfortunate that he didn’t get a stronger hand to the cup final one. Should have stood up longer and made himself big for the 2nd. IMO of course.

We’ve had worse keepers. We’ve had better

Cut The Crap

No real reasons then why folk are genuinely optimistic about next season? Other than it might be our turn to come third or fourth?

“self entitled wee pricks”. 

 

Ever called any Hearts fan that to his face JT????

 

I did tell a wee prick at Easter Road once to get his UJ out of my face and stop being a wee prick after we beat Hibs 1-0 the game after they won the wee cup.

 

So if a Hearts fan is being a dick I will tell them - yes.

Def had worse def had better. At pens I think he is awful CF is prob the closest he’s come to saving one and he should of. Positioning for second imo was fine. He has an ok one on one record I think. Edouard deserves credit for a good finish. Thats why i said its harsh blaming him for the second. However it is what it is ?

JT is a ****, that’s accepted. The guy who, on a match day thread would rather have a go at Hearts fans than enjoy the moment.

He states his opinions lucidly however some of his terminology for fellow Hearts fans who share a different opinion is uncalled for IMO.

 

Fair comment.

 

But like I annoy ‘fellow’ Hearts fans who tell me where to go the feeling is often mutual.

I tell you what. I’ll make this promise to you - if Levein gets sacked or we don’t improve in the league next season I will leave this board for good as I will have been proven completely and embarrassingly wrong.

 

If we do improve I’m here to stay as I will lord it over everyone that wanted Levein sacked now because I will have been proven right.

 

Ok my friend?

Well done JT - the wee prick with the UJ deserved it!!

I’m not sure Hearts fans who do not favour Levein as Manager deserve to be called wee dicks or pricks TBH.

Its all subjective when it comes to points and positions. Say we are 4th as we get back above Hibs as they are 4points worse off and Killie fall back 18points with losses to bottom 4teams and we beat them 4times. We are still just over 50points but moved up two places? Is that acceptable?

The argument people would then use would be we got same points as last season. We didn’t make Europe. Same in reverse we get 68 points Killie have another blinder as do Aberdeen we finish 5th. 5th isnt acceptable yet we would have eclipsed this season.

He was not referring to the type of Hearts fan you describe - he was referring to Hearts fans with an alleged sense of entitlement.

So it looks like Craig Levein is a lot more popular than the ‘gobby loudmouths’ on JKB would have you believe!

 

Great poll to demonstrate common sense and the opinions of the ‘real’ Hearts supporters!

 

2019/20 season will be great!

Its the sub-category of Levein haters who are self-entitled about what hearts should be doing each and every season that I aim the ‘wee pricks’ thing at.

 

I understand why some fans don’t like Levein. I think it’s stupidity but not all Levein haters are self-entitled. We should be finishing higher than 6th of course but I see sufficient to warrant Levein another season to complete HIS team.

So in summary I’m a self entitled, stupid, Levein hating, wee prick....

 

I think that covers it! ?

I'd say you'll only have been proven right over someone who wants Levein sacked if there's pretty substantial improvement next season. I'd say that means a top four finish, and if it's fourth, we'd have to have pushed whoever finished third hard all the way, and not been miles and miles off second either, plus we'd have to have done at least reasonably well in the cups (i.e. not lost to teams well below us in the league(s) and not gone out early unless to a very strong team.

That's utterly shocking. Imagine wanting Hearts to meet expectations! :rolleyes:

 

It's ok though. If we don't hit those normal levels, the excuse factory will be back out in force (early stretches could be the new dressing rooms and corporate facilities, meaning resources have been diverted away from the team).
