If so, then he is not only lying to us, but surely the Board too?

 

I really don't want to hate Levein, but apathy is slowly changing to animosity!

I think Ann Budge seems to believe it’s all bad luck and the injuries, he’s not necessarily lying to them but definitely misleading them. He lies to the press constantly, on a week to week basis. Whether he doesn’t listen, or ignores it, or gets bad advice from the medical department who knows.

I was told by someone who plays for the Hearts legends that the players don’t trust him, I wouldn't say they were giving their all for him would you? The longer he stays the more I dislike him.

If we have these players coming back, especially Haring and Naismith who haven't had much game time since last season, is he really going to throw them into a game v rangers? I doubt it, but who knows with his selections these days. Playing our best guys that aren't up to speed could be a fecking disaster, either picking up more niggles or just getting completely outplayed by fitter players. Saying that playing with a fully match fit 11 could also be a disaster, shite decision to have to make like.

He gets paid handsomely to do it, and rarely chooses the right option through the desperation of a man on his last legs.

There was a piece planted on the BBC the other day that Jamie Walker would also be back soon - looks like more bullshit.

If he hadn’t lost the dressing room before the weekend he lost it on Saturday evening.

Indeed, and with a free scoring team he’s never beaten at Tynecastle up next that’s not good.

I’ve said similar myself away from JKB.  We aren’t back til the 20th. There’s no way they’ll thrust them back in for that match. Even if he did, I doubt they’ll be up to speed, but in desperate times we may ask them to step up and give us something. 

 

Then, two of the toughest, physical away matches in 4 days prior to the semi. One on a synthetic pitch.  Both probably won’t be risked and will miss more vital match fitness build up.  There wouldn’t be as much pressure if we’d made a better start.

 

The level of character we are going to have to show over the next while is something probably not been asked of this team yet.

There's something dodgy with someone who smirks at their fellow fans who are just unhappy at how our team are doing.

No, there's something wrong with Hearts fans who don't support the team and club.

Question, which players was he referring to about losing their places?

 

i thought about this at the time and other than Irving, I’ve no idea who he’s talking about. Mulraney perhaps, but we don’t have another pacey winger at the club, so he’ll still be involved. Clare perhaps, but it begs the question, why does he get picked more often than not. And other than those 3 I’ve not got a clue who he could be talking about.

Great point. It can only be Clare. The fact Levein has not signed a proper wide man in 2 seasons is another nail in his coffin and why as you say Mulraney has to be involved at least on the bench. 
 

Levein was trying hard to deflect after the game on Saturday and his comments don’t add up.

Aaah yes, the paradox of the bald man / the heap / the win ratio measure / the moody credit rating.

 

It's brilliant. 40.78% currently compared to Tommy McLean's paltry 37.2%.  We need to wait through another 10 games (assuming no victories) of Levein before he hits McLean levels and is no longer brilliant.  

 

A single victory or two should keep Levein brilliant, at least until about 115-120 games in charge when he may then become a bald man (or a heap of shit).  Or no longer rated by Moody's.

Nah, work it out for yourself. It will do you good.

If you’re going to post stats at least try not making an arse of it then.

posting is as good as your management skills Craig.

It is Clare, the player that Craig himself said was struggling with confidence.

great man management again from the man.

In a nutshell. Could have slipped off into the background and been left to keep a handle on the overall structure of the footballing "department" and most would probably have shrugged their shoulders and left him to it, let him enjoy farting about at the youth games and putting bets on in full Hearts training kit. 

 

Now the situation is so toxic that you'd want a restraining order put in place with his dismissal. If/when we get our arse felt next after the international break that's surely got to be it for anyone still clinging onto the belief he'll turn it around. 

If folk are still backing CL at this point,then I don't see a defeat to the rangers changing their mind

Never beat Rangers at home. Like the Labour Party I prefer his earlier work. How about his record in the last 12 months you clueless happy clapping eejit?

He definitely ain’t a hearts fan that’s for sure.

as another poster said(Ron) throughout good and great times we’ve had following our team over the last 10 years he’s failed to post!! Now you think he’d post about pumping Hibs in a final and getting a CVA agreed and the club being saved.

then the foundation success but no posts.

But whilst we are at a very low point and a good number want shot of our manager(a manager Hibs fans love and are desperate to see us keep) he comes on telling us all how we should support our club.

Do you seriously think that all those fans that want rid of Craig Levein don't support the Team and The Club?

 

This is the exact reason why they want rid of him because he is bringing the club we all love down and AB and people like you don't see it.

 

He has had plenty time to show what he can do and it just isn't working. So it;s time to live in the real world now Spoleto.

Surely you got yourself banned? Do you not take responsibility for your actions?

 

FWIW I think reporting posts is a bit of a nonsense.

There are ways of doing things wavy. Even if you were right and we'd be better off without him I still wouldn't entertain acts that negatively affect the club and the players.

 

Perhaps that's just me ,,,,, but I think not.

Thanks for the tip. Quite enjoyed reading an outside view of some of the posters on here and their possible motivations.
