Jambo_Gaz Posted September 6, 2019 Author Share Posted September 6, 2019 (edited) Really? We're in relegation form throughout 2019 and our owner thinks we will just miraculously get better? and she also thinks Hibs will too? I thought she read these forums and would know the 90% plus that want a change of management. Ignored. If Budge was a man she'd be getting torn to shreds for saying that.

Whatever Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 As I recall, Mr Romanov didn’t recognise them at all. I preferred our owner behaving like that when it comes to that club. If the question put to Ann was loaded, I’d rather she had answered along the lines of ‘I can’t speak on behalf of Hibs but I think we’ll be pushing for a European spot come the seasons end....’ I despise them. I’m not comfortable with them being seen as nice neighbours by our owner/board. FTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Canada Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 There's no way this could come back to bite her! Levein has taken us to 6th in the past two seasons and now we're suddenly going to click and fight for a European place. We didn't qualify last season after being top of the league, so I don't fancy our chances this season. Of course, I hope I'm proved wrong but it would need a big change in performances.

Ok I've had enough of hiding. I am Ann Budge. I am a 71 year old multi-millionaire businesswoman and currently in charge of running our football club. I read these forums instead of focusing on the football side of things, or speaking to my family. I am hopeful that our performances on the park and in this forum will miraculously get better. As a grown adult who is often speaking in public, I don't necessarily foam at the mouth when anyone mentions Hibs. But you shouldn't think I'm soft, or any different to the average fan. I remember back when I was a 51 year old multi-millionaire businesswoman, I was outside Robbos shouting expletives at the Pieman and got caught up with the riot police. If I was a man, I'd probably be called Alan Budge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ve got a good side. Much better side than Hibs, they’re gash. Pretty confident myself that we will finish top 4 this season. People have completely gave up on Levein and there's no turning back. So what, we start picking up points and everything is fine? No, some fans aren't fickle arseholes. Levein has proved over 3 years that he can't make a squad greater than or equal to the sum of is parts. He relies on having a better squad than the opposition. We need to try and get a better manager in that can get results consistently and take points at difficult venues. We need to try and get our own Steve Clarke. I'm aware that's difficult but getting someone better than our current manager will be fairly effortless. Stop with all the negativity about what will happen without a failing manager who has so far gave us nothing. Budge has us set up for someone to come in and really show the full potential of Hearts but that won't happen until Levein is removed. Sorry if I don't share the view the that Levein can take us to the next level. Levein is finished and Hearts need to move forward. You can cry all you want about the majority of the Hearts support. 10 or so posters rubbing the letters off their keyboard trying to frantically and failing to keep Levein in a job and Budge happy is pretty hilarious. Kickback actually makes it look fairly split. Unfortunately the you can't hide the poll results with mountains of desperate shite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Form and evidence would suggest otherwise - under Levein anyway. From watching us this season. I thought we were the better side at Pittodrie, defence chucked it. We were very good at Fir Park. Defence cost us goals at Parkhead, although we’d have probably lost anyway. We were good v Hamilton 1st half, defence chucked it and we became a nervous shitefest after they scored. You may laugh and you may disagree but for me if our defence was as solid as it should have been, we’d be sitting with 5-7pts, which would have been a reasonable start. I also think once Souttar & Naisy are back, Whelan is more integrated into the team, we’ll be much better & more consistent. Then we’ve got Haring & Walker to come back in the next 2 months. I’m not saying Craig Leveins the right man for the job by any means, but I certainly think we’ll vastly improve our fortunes pretty soon. We’re too good for that not to be the case. The simple fact of the matter is, if the results don’t come immediately, he’ll be gone.
