If it was just about having good players according to your rational we would be doing fine now because we have fit players who you say CL brought in because they are good... nothing much happening there is there? Oh wait they are all injured ... so CL is not the problem after all... great all we need is for him to get more of these great players in!

mitch41 Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 If Levein is right he must be burying Hearts Premiership place in the sand. His record in the league is the worst I can remember. Why would Levein stay in a job he is useless at ? Power, money or ego it's certainly not for the good of Hearts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not 5 games though. This is the third season he's been in charge and apart from the winning spell at the start of last season, weve been garbage to watch, with abysmal results. Not sure if anyone has mentioned it already but based on a league table from last october, we would be bottom! He doesn't seem to get that though. He's had plenty of chances to put things right and failed every time. Just the 52 points behind Celtic then despite being 7 points clear of them at one stage iirc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1971fozzy Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 (edited) What makes me really sad , and mad, is that after everything us supporters have put into this club in the past 5-6 years both emotionally and financially we get to the stage now were we get this ! A terrible manager taking us down faster than any other in our history and an owner who’s legacy should be set in stone and risking it all by standing by and watching it. Car crash. we do not deserve this. Edited September 17, 2019 by 1971fozzy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, particularly on your second, third and fourth points, though your initial point is for me is on a sliding scale - how much time do you give a manager, that has clearly been failing for a considerable while...I tend to be closer to Phil D on that one.

1971fozzy Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 He’ll never resign. Too stubborn and blind. I think he genuinely believes he can get this fixed and turn it around. That’s how deluded he has became. As for AB , she is in serious danger of getting it both barrels as well from the support should things continue as they are for the next few weeks. Can only the supporters see this shambles ? Utterly baffling that we have had nothing from her after saturdays scenes. the millions of pounds we have all poured into this club to see the 2 of them sit back and accept the slide back to the championship. players look lost and bewildered , fans have turned and are desperately wanting him and his coaches to go while there’s a bit of dignity left.
