Gambo Posted September 11, 2019 Posted September 11, 2019 Sorry if already reported, but at end of month, Burns going to Newcastle Jets on year long loan according to Belfast Telegraph. Quote
Penrices left boot Posted September 11, 2019 Posted September 11, 2019 Burnsey and the jets. Good luck to the lad. Quote
been here before Posted September 11, 2019 Posted September 11, 2019 (edited) Not a bad move all round for him. I reckon Burns the makings of a half decent player. Edited September 11, 2019 by been here before Quote
kingantti1874 Posted September 11, 2019 Posted September 11, 2019 (edited) Some move that.. he’s a good player with a great attitude but doesn’t have the pace to make it as a left back.. think he should try and change to a position where pace less of a problem.. defensive mid maybe Edited September 11, 2019 by kingantti1874 Quote

CJGJ Posted September 11, 2019 Posted September 11, 2019 He'll need to up his game to make a career with us Good move to give him a year out of the limelight and time to grow but on what we have seen so far he'll need it Quote
Baxfee Posted September 11, 2019 Posted September 11, 2019 Bit of a weird one in terms of location of loan move particularly as he seems to go home quite a lot. Is there some connection with them (ie former player)? Quote

Last Laff Posted September 11, 2019 Posted September 11, 2019 Good luck to him, hopefully he can develop a career down under it’s a big opportunity. Quote
rudi must stay Posted September 11, 2019 Posted September 11, 2019 No problem with this. He'll do well Quote
Jamhammer Posted September 11, 2019 Posted September 11, 2019 Good luck to him. Love his attitude Quote
Tasavallan Posted September 11, 2019 Posted September 11, 2019 We'll have Gary Mackay in tomorrow's media complaining that Hearts do not have a big enough squad. Quote
fabienleclerq Posted September 11, 2019 Posted September 11, 2019 I think that's the last we will see of him tbh. Quote

I used to work there years ago when it was an industrial town. All changed now though and will be a great "gap year" for the young chap....Beaches,sunshine,cold beer.....!! Quote

Knowing our luck he'll come back 20 stone, have developed alcohol and gambling dependancies and have picked up a career-threatening STD. Levein's influenza is killing the club every day.

i8hibsh Posted September 11, 2019 Posted September 11, 2019 No shock but I do not rate him highly. Quote

Gorgie_Rules Posted September 11, 2019 Posted September 11, 2019 Guess we didn’t see Hickey having the immediate impact he would, which was to Burns disadvantage. Quote

kila Posted September 11, 2019 Posted September 11, 2019 Fair enough, seems a bit out the picture the now. Losing to his old team in pre-season a kick in the baws Quote

stirlingshirejambo Posted September 11, 2019 Posted September 11, 2019 I love his attitude but no surprise nor seen him since Cowdenbeath was quite honestly the worst performance from a left back I’ve seen that that includes some of the dross we’ve had recently . I admired his attitude as he never stopped trying but was so out of touch I felt sorry for him Quote

Hearts Legend blasts Budge carbon footprint Hearts’ record appearance holder, Gary Mackay, has expressed grave reservations about club owner, Ann Budge’s, disregard for the environment. Speaking in the wake of reports that peripheral squad member, Bobby Burns, is heading for a year long loan move to Australia, the former midfield maestro exclaimed, “Australia is many thousand miles away and we have to assume Bobby will be travelling by plane - in this age of climate change it worries me to think that our once proud club is contributing to the impending catastrophe. It’s no secret that I don’t like Craig Levein etc.” Quote
jambocub Posted September 11, 2019 Posted September 11, 2019 Good luck to the lad and some experience . Quote
Saint Jambo Posted September 11, 2019 Posted September 11, 2019 As usual, plenty of Hearts fans willing to write-off our teenagers whilst elsewhere you can read that players in their mid-20s are young enough to improve. I've read that everyone from Shankland to Uche to Sterling are young enough to improve. One of the big issues I see with the plan for the club to develop youngsters through the Academy and reserves is the lack of patience of fans to give these players time to develop. Not sure how we change that. Hopefully Burns has a really positive experience on loan that helps him develop and he comes back ready to have another go at making an impact on the first team. Quote

Not sure how we change that. Hopefully Burns has a really positive experience on loan that helps him develop and he comes back ready to have another go at making an impact on the first team. There's two ways. One is to have a successful (and I mean for Hearts ie beating who we should mostly) team on the park so that the settled nature of the results-side allows for less convincing individual performances - such the ones young and inexperienced players can produce - to go largely unnoticed. The second is to be so shite and lowly that producing and enjoying, however briefly, a player for sell-on to a bigger league/club is as good as it gets. I know which option I'd prefer.

In fact I think the only thing I really read about his time there was one game he played against Celtic, where as you say he may well have played at full back because I think the report mentioned he played well when up against James Forrest. I hope he does well in Australia and gets played over there where he functions best, and can come back and do well for us. Quote
Tom Hardy’s Dug Posted September 11, 2019 Posted September 11, 2019 Was he not played as a second striker in the season before he moved to us? Scored a few goals recall. Quote
CloustonHMFC Posted September 12, 2019 Posted September 12, 2019 If you ask him what position he plays, he’ll tell you he’s a LB who can play anywhere on the left side or in the centre. Quote
