So you’d quite happilly accept a manager who finishes bottom six every season as long as he reaches a couple of cup finals? ??‍♂️

I didn't say that, did I?? I was referring to the achievement of reaching Cup Finals. As it happens, I do think he would improve us. He finished bottom 6 with Motherwell, a club with far less resources than us.

Calm down mate. Stop getting so upset.

For your benefit, I'll repeat what I said earlier

 

They are indeed but have not had the serious injuries we've had, not to mention controversial reffing decisions.

Clarke did make an immediate impact but if it's not sustainable it's not something we would want at Tynie.  I am starting to get a sense of deja vu with Clarke's tenure at WBA where he started well before poor results got him sacked.

 

A bit like Craig Levein getting sacked by Leicester and Scotland.

I was responding to a point made by another poster about Steve Clarke being sacked from WBA.

 

The point was not about how many managers get sacked although I agree most do at some point in their careers.

The poster was highlighting a pattern in Clarke's career.

It also seems to be easier on JKB to justify woeful performances and failure to beat bottom of the League teams, than suggest we set our sights higher.

 

They seem to have a warped badge of honour, to critisise any posts which does not sit in their comfort zone of mediocrity.

Bravo  :clap::clap:

 

Any post critical of Levein is treated like an honour killing. 

 

Better to have a "proper Hearts man" in charge than ask awkward questions about where all the money has gone on poor signings * and why after nearly 2 whole seasons we are still watching dire football.  Oh wait, we had 3 CBs injured for a while. 

*which he made clear is NOT his fault - so still confused as to who scouted and signed them.

I hope I'm wrong Al and we get back to that early season form,   but we may lose a few players for next season 

 

who will be hard to replace and I don't think the support will be willing to accept another extended period of poor form/football .

Next season will take care of itself when the dust has settled on this one.

It's a bit soon to be giving your pessimism a run out, is it not?

So are you agreeing that SC may be no better thatn CL?

Some on here think Levein is the devil incarnate while also thinking that Clarke is God's gift to football management.

I said he wasn't getting a game ?  I mentioned other JKB posters who mentioned he was a free agent. 

 

PS If you're club doesn't offer you a new contract I'd say that probably means you're not getting a game.  But troll away.

You pounced on the Levein exaggeration but ignored the comment about Clarke leaving one to believe you agreed with it.  Do you?

Reference your PS you are making yourself look silly now. I can 100% guarantee that McLaughlin was offered a new contract twice in Burton's first season in the Championship but turned them both down. He played every game of that season until he injured his elbow with four games left. This meant that Bywater played the remaining games.

You posted that:

 

”any post critical of Craig Levein is treated like an honour killing.”

”gross exaggeration.”

That's right , I ignored your reference to Clarke.  I can't help how you interpret things I didn't refer to.

Compares people backing the Hearts manager with backing people who murder their relatives in the name of honour.

 

Accuses others of gross exaggeration.

Not really. He accused people of “gross exaggeration” whilst claiming that backing the gaffer is akin to backing religiously motivated infanticide. ?

No. Not in your case. You accuse me of something, but don't back it up. I sent you  a quote and link from the BBC website which is in accordance with what I said was posted on here by others. So, if you are correct, the BBC is wrong and the other posters who said he was a free agent are also wrong. I don't know why you quote games played etc, it's irrelevant ; he was released by Burton or he wasn't.

Eh? Please explain...

 

You accused others of “gross exaggeration” whilst claiming that anyone who supports our manager is guilty of the equivalent of supporting “honour killings”.

 

Seriously... you are just flailing around in the mud that’s gathered in the hole you are digging. ?
