By contrast look at Hearts staff against Man City. Are all these guys relevant? Pep would say yes. https://trainingground.guru/staff-profiles/manchester-city-staff-profiles Gary Naysmiths role will grow over time and prove vital to development of those long term in the academy, bridging the gap between youth and adult football, something that we struggle with in this country. Fair enough question the quality of coaching from Daly or Fox but I'd say it's pretty ignorant to discount the roles of the coaches and naysmith entirely because of some poor form. Do you think its valid to question the ability of fox's and dalys contribution without questioning leviens and McPhee..? The results have been terrible along with the performances for too long .

I'm not sure it really matters how many there are when none of them have one iota about coaching football players at a professional level. As far as I can see there are 4 - CL, AM, JD, Fox. All need to leave IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, he did OK but nothing special. Many players are football men through and through but that does not always mean their opinions are correct. It amazes me how the likes of Nicholas, Sutton, Boyd, Stewart, Thompson etc sit on the sidelines, safely giving their opinions and pontificating with the advantage of hindsight and camera reruns. It's a different matter when put in the position of translating one's opinions and theories into practice as Neil McCann soon found out.

Away up in Gorgie Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 The number of coaches seems ok. The quality of said coaches and how they find themselves at Hearts is far more questionable especially given how rancid the first teams results and performances have been for many months. The fact remains we need a fresh figurehead, someone committed to being on the training field day in day out and we need fresh voices, with the required qualifications getting over his message.

I had the privilege of playing against his Portsmouth team as they came to Hms Mercury for pre season training. They played the camp team and beat us 3-2. A certain Mark Hateley scoring two for them. Alan Ball was a joy to talk with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
