The Internet Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 Adriano, the one that played for inter for a few years. Often wonder what might have been, could have been the best ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 (edited) 14 hours ago, We_are_the_Hearts said: Was it not Mark Gavin? When I think of Mark Gavin, Steve Penney and Aidy Boothroyd also come to mind. Proof we didn't start making dodgy signings in the last few years. They'd all make a crap signings 11 from the late 80s to mid 90s, along with the likes of Davie Kirkwood and Brian Hamilton who cost us a fair bit of cash. Although Boothroyd's goal is up there with Besja's cross and El Hass's reverse pass in the list of Hearts players who only ever did one memorable thing.

The Gorgie Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 Steve Banks just came to mind. My mate got his towel after a game, think it was st mirren at home, season we finished 8th. He's not even a hearts fan, hes rangers but came to the game with me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teej1874 Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 Jim Cowell, but only cause he used to work in a different department from me at my old work. Too young to have seen him play, wouldn't have actually known he had played for Hearts if someone didn't tell me. Matej Rapnik, Branimir Kostadinov and Dumitru Copil. Also Larry Kingston but that's cause I was obsessed with him back when he first signed.. ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tian447 Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 Not so much randomly popping into my head, but I always get a kick out of seeing that Flávio Paixão is a consistently good performer in the Ektraklasa. 24 goals in 71 games for Śląsk Wrocław, and 41 goals in 113 games for Lechia Gdańsk. Always loved that Flávio and his twin brother Marco would team up - literally - and played at several clubs together. I was on holiday in Poland last year, and he popped up doing an interview on one of the Sports channels. Was a bit of a "wtf" moment, especially as he also speaks pretty good Polish!

What a bloody unique career that guy has had. Add GK coach at womens’ World Cup finals to the list. Love the unorthodox paths like that. ?

Stephen Muddie Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 I was just sitting doing nothing in particular there and suddenly, like an epiphony from above, the name came into my head: Craig Nelson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(4-2) He appears to have been a very good player in a very successful Hearts side. Doesn't seem to get the same retrospective recognition of others from those days. Perhaps that was the case at the time, too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zaba Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 Thought about Hjalmar Thorarinsson the other day. Googled him and discovered that he’s been dating a woman who is half a century older than him for the past couple of years. Only thing of note that he did was score against Motherwell at Easter Road in the Jamie McAllister semi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
