Rudy T Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 I want Gary Locke in that dressing room at Easter Road telling each and everyone of those players that they are playing for the memory of Bobby Prentice and destroy that mob 8-0 to send a message to Jim Jeffries, that no matter how bad things are this club, players and fans stand together and will fight for its own!!

Vlad Magic Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Levein is by no means perfect. Flawed in many ways and is in all probability about to leave us. However he required no motivation in getting his teams up for a visit to Easter Road. Perhaps this is his swan song?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiwidoug Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 And the players need to respond, every single one of them. If they won't play for Levein, they should have the ethics to play for the supporters. I want them spitting blood, not pissing about on the half way line with sideways passes. Giving it 100% in the final minute regardless of the score. The coaches deserve that too, not matter how inept they are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OTT Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Derbies less of a game and more of a fight. Whoever wants it more will win.

Bazzas right boot Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 If we beat them and get to a lc sf then **** knows what next. I think we'll beat them, giving both teams form being the away team is helpful. If we have Smith and Naismith back and Meshino starts along with Damour I'll be quite confident. Start with Maclean upfront and Clare I think we're in a worse place. Maclean is too easy to mark, me ER even threatens to score tbh and Clare needs taken out the firing line. Damour-irvine Meshino--clare Naismith for Denzil Smith for Brandon 2 goal win for us. Shame Walker and Washington are out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be wrong but I think he's only been on the losing side in a derby as a player and manager 3 times in an awfy lot of games - around 20 years worth basically. Unfortunately those 3 times are all in his second spell as manager, even if he did initially make us harder to beat in the derby again.

Kiwidoug Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Seems to me there is a line-up of truly great Hearts men who can't wait to see levein leave the building. By my count just over recent days, I've heard that JJ, Gary Mackay and Gary Locke are in that camp. There's also Michael Stewart of course. I suppose there will be others. That is just toxic for Hearts. It's not fanciful to suppose that some current players may also be in the same camp. Do the right thing Dr Budge.

Damour, Smith, Naismith and Meshino all starting gives me confidence as well. I don't think they've played a good game all season. They managed a win v St mirren but according to them they've been poor in every game and been getting worse. They also know, CL will get them up for ER and if any game will turn our season around, they know it's them. Actually glad it's away as well.

Yeah, when we were relegated after a 15 points deduction and only 2 outfield players aged over 21 and not allowed to sign any other players. A manager who won 4 games out of 5 against the Hobos and a team that picked up more points than them over the league campaign. You don't think he could fire up the current squad to perform well above the mediocrity that we've been witnessing for the past year? I'm not saying we should appoint Locke, but to criticise him for getting us relegated is way out of order. Romanov got us relegated, he sowed the seeds that left us in the predicament we found ourselves in. Locke tried to pick up the pieces of the shambles he inherited, but basically had an U21 side at his disposal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
