Gav M Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 Is that not a strangely low level for someone, who on the face of it, should be looking at 1st team exposure in the not too distant future? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djrjambo Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 Wasnt overly impressed by him against Whitehill Welfare a couple of weeks ago. He’s a big unit but I thought his distribution was quite poor. Bonnyrigg are a good side at their level and I think he’s going to have to stick out there if he’s to have a future at Hearts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular John Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 Surprised he’s still on the books, didn’t look that great when he made his debut about two years ago. Seemed like he relied on his size at the time, not much footballer there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would have thought so. I'm surprised that it was Bonnyrigg as they do have a couple of decent and regular centre backs.in Kerr Young and Euan Moyes, with a backup in Alan Horne. Danny started tonight's game as left centre back in a back four and looked very assured with the ball at his feet, spraying the passes well. After 40 minutes they switched to a back three after an injury, so Danny played on the left of a three. Thereafter he was poor. He barely won a ball in the air but never had the ball at his feet, so was ineffective. Bonnyrigg did win the game 2-1 though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

innerjambo Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 He obviously has no future at Hearts, don't get me wrong, Bonnyrigg are a really good side, but that is just a level below what I would expect for a loan move. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scott herbertson Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 I guess that sometimes wheen a player has a lot of the attributes we will wait a bit to see if he develops. It's not that much of a financial risk. if it doesn't work out then we loan him out to cut our expenditure and still have the option to bring him back if he makes progress Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wish him all the best I think Hearts missed out on getting the best out of him when he was younger. Given his physique he should have been pushed up a year or two to compete against bigger lads, and benefit by becoming much more streetwise on the park.

Wish him all the best How I see it, watched him since he was a kid as family member played in same team. Relied on his height and as he’s got older hasn’t been able to so much. One of those lads who is 6ft4 when he stands and 6ft2 when he jumps... A big Jambo so wish him nothing but the best but very clear his future is at a level below Hearts.

big jambo g Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Watched Baur v Whitehill and in my mind after that game Lowland League is his level. Don’t see him ever making the grade at Hearts. Maybe I just saw him on an of day, others who have seen him regularly can shoot me down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobboM Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Watched him a few times with the Reserves. Whole hearted player but like some others have said he doesn't take full advantage of his physique. He did seem to go on a few mazey runs though, and quite effective too. Reminded me a bit of Disco Dave McPherson when on a run. Good luck to him.

He was told by Levein when he went on loan at the start of the season that he was not allowed to become cup-tied by Bonnyrigg so has been playing in the league but not in any of the cup games. Not sure if that stance has changed since Stendel took over but given he is on loan there for the rest of the season I assume that's why he was on the bench yesterday. I'm biased as he is my cousin's son but he is a lovely lad and a real credit to his parents. Nice to hear that other people agree with me.
