Dallas Green Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 14 hours ago, GinRummy said: Not looking to start an argument but see when you say about seeing ‘the fruits of his labour’ 1) if it’s the fruits of CL’s labour then what is the Academy Managers role? Is it just admin etc? 2) are we bringing through more youngsters since the academy? Doesn’t seem like it. He was very hands on in rebuilding the structure of the Academy, with that we have brought through some very good youngsters. IMO better than in recent times, which a good handful show a maturity beyond their years. I think this is down to how the Academy is run and has ben set up. We have very talented youth players in our first team squad (Irving and Hickey being the standouts) and by all accounts Connor Smith is suppose to be even better than them. This growth in our talented youth is down to CL and his work as DOF on the Academy side. As I have said, his time as manager is now most likely up. I'd like him to move over to the Academy and fully focus on capturing and growing us the best youth talent in Scotland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haken Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 I've voted No. A few months back I'd have been keen on him retaining a role, but we're well past that, now. If he stays in some sort of footballing capacity, it will simply cast shadows over anything that happens under any new management team.

mitch41 Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 It seems that after 2 confidence boosting results Levein finds it impossible to have Hearts playing football on the front foot against a St Mirren who are incapable of scoring goals. Watching Hearts is like our weather, it changes every 5 minutes. Yes it's a frustrating time for us Jambos and I don't see anything changing while Levein & co are unable to do what is needed.

Well said. Only thing I would disagree on is "it changes every 5 mins", I would say that 90%+ of our football is dull and boring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reality is that CL is here for the season then will likely move back upstairs. It's October tomorrow and so far, it's hard to see any improvement on last season at the moment. We do really need a full overhaul of the footballing department. I would still have said that even if we won on Saturday. The current set up is not fit for purpose.

Rudy T Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 (edited) To be fair in all this, we’ve had a tough week, Sunday derby, extra time Wednesday then a trip to Paisley where no one is scoring goals. Add in Halkett and Damour injuries and it’s not the worse result, regardless of the manager. We can’t say we’ve turned the corner yet though but it’s been the best week in a long time.

With one sub left, CL's hand was somewhat restricted in that if he subbed too early we could have been left with 10 men for all/most of the 2nd half. If he subbed too late, the baw was burst.

GorgieFifeLife Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 The supposed strong squad we have should be more than enough to cover for our injuries in all games out with the Old Firm. At the moment we are just lurching from one farce to the next. It's clear we need a change but if Budge gives him enough time he will come up with a win and a couple of draws and that gives him a stay of execution. We are a team going nowhere. Instead of the push for change quietening down during this period it should be heightened as a couple of decent results cant hide the fact our general play is abysmal.
