Levein’s time is up...

Romanov would have seen through Levein  before employing him.

Spot on. When I started my FoH subscription it was with the intent it would continue till the day i die and without any daft caveats about how the team is performing or who the manager is.

 

 

Thanks Jodami. Today was indefensible. Nowehere near good enough. I suspect though that even if Levein thought he couldn’t take us any further he wouldn’t step down right now, he would do it in the summer.

 

 

Was a good move in my opinion. Clare wasn’t having his usual impact in midfield and it gave us a more attacking option from that area of the pitch while allowing another striker to come on. One of very few things the manager got right today.

 

 

Calling someone deluded and a fool is abuse and quite frankly not something I’d expect from someone who was banging onnwarlier about he treats other posters with respect and treats others as he likes to be treated. ?

I disagree Frank, especially from someone like you who regularly tries to belittle posters using pictorial sarcasm. I don't think Walter The Softie would take offence at any of my posts. #clearconscience

The quality of youngsters coming through our academy has been dreadful . 

Keep hearing the next batch are great . Utter bolloks imo . 

Levein is a charlatan playing Ann like a fiddle 

It's really starting to look that way .what worrying also is all the ones that came through the academy that became first team players chose to leave

People seem to forget how well off we are just now.

Johnny no mates could do a better job right now. 

 

We’ll see what happens. I’m sure the board will be aware of how a lot of people are feeling at the moment. 

I’m inclined to give it the season because there’s no point now. 

If it does happen though any new man should get the job before the summer window. We shouldn’t make the mistake we made with Cathro.

Who would be available now?

Look how Man Utd have turned around. I see great comparisons between us and them with a dour defensive manager and look where they are now. 

 

They are are obviously on a completely different level to us but players that were playing in to themselves have been revitalised with belief and a change in approach. 

 

The chance we have in the Scottish cup cannot be left to Levein, it would be such a waste. 

Spot on we only have to look across the city to see how a 

new manager can revitalise a club with the same players

It's ok to express opinions, whether that'll be the case when the bevvy kicks in later is another thing.

I agree to a certain extent but to change the entire coaching staff and management team now is just not in the best interests on the club. 

History is riddled with clubs that pull the trigger because of an upset fan base. It rarely bares fruit. 

See out the season, regroup, maybe bring in another experienced head, there's lot of options. Pulling the trigger now will only satisfy a disgruntled support. That's not in the best interests of Heart of Midlothian FC in my book.

Are people really wanting to empty the entire coaching team immediately ?

That is crazy imo.

Stopping FOH payments is a personal choice what folk want to do with their money is their business.

Damaging the club and perhaps delaying the handover in the process is not the action of anyone with the clubs best interests at heart. Its more like Hibs behaviour deserting the club when times are tough.

After all thats what Hibs fans said about FOH at the outset, that fans would stop paying in when the going got tough. They were judging us by their own standards. I would hate for them to be proved correct.

What 90 minutes are you referring to - today?

 

Or against Partick at Firhill?

Or Dundee at Dens?

Or Dundee at Tynecastle?

Or St Mirren at Tynecastle?

Or St Mirren...........

Punting him and getting a new chap in now might provide a shot in the arm (not the Lochend type LOLZ) but I doubt it would be the sensible approach with a view to the longer term. If he goes it should be the end of the season with plans for his replacement in place.

[Rocky jamboa]

It doesn't seem like Levein will be going anytime soon, with him tying players down for next season. 

 

I didn't renew my season ticket this season (thank God!), as the football's been crap for ages, and can see more folk doing the same for next season, if there's not a change. 

 

Even Robbo would be a better option just now and at least have us playing attacking football. 

[Inch Hearts]

He’s not going anywhere.

 

kooshiest number in world football.

I didn't want him gone at 2.55pm so it would rather idiotic to want him away at 4.45pm.

I pledge £200 a month to the FOH. have done for the previous 2 seasons.

 

I travel down from Ullapool  have also purchased season tickets, fuel money, accomodation for evening kick off's, food etc. 

 

I buy the home and away top every season as well as various other bits and pieces.

 

I'm sick of doing 8-10 hour round trips at a great cost to myself to go and watch this mediocre week in week out. Excuse after excuse. I have missed games due to car breakdowns, punctures on the A9 and all sorts. 

 

So don't dare say my loyality or anything like that has gone. The expense I give up each month for Hearts through all of the above means I want my journey to be worth it.

 

Simple as that. If I want to stop paying that every month because i am not happy with the direction the club is going in. I feel i'm perfectly entitled to do that. Until CL leaves I shall not be putting another penny into the club.

 

 Daza, frankly that's just too much to be paying monthly into any sporting club. Keep paying in but do yourself a favour and spend more of your money on other things that are not  dependent on the efforts of lazy footballers or duff managers

Keeps the money out of Budges pocket.Let her waste her own money and not yours.I am not renewing my season ticket. Or wasting money on the semi final..Done that at Murrayfield.Once the money dries up you will get action.

 

Boy Oh Boy.

 

Hearts only exist for us now because Ann Budge put her hands deep into her own pockets to save us from oblivion, only for ungrateful B******* like you to come along and spout that p15h. Do us a favour and clear off back to .net.

 

I'll be renewing my st on Monday and I'll be continuing my pledge. Craig Levein is certainly dishing up some dreadful stuff right now and if we don't win the cup and or finish top four then I'll be wanting him away.

But then I'm what you would call a HEARTS SUPPORTER not a success supporter or a Craig Levein supporter. We're punching below our weight but I've seen worse, MUCH worse.

Was Clare having one of his I can’t be arsed days again that I talked about before the game. 

[Bring Back Paulo Sergio]

Majority of Hearts fans want him gone. There's always a few special cases. Same ones who wanted to give Cathro the start of last season and we all know how that worked out.

I love my club. But sorry I’m not going to stop following them as I’ve seen truly atrocious Hearts sides who played before 2,000 crowds at Tynecastle, got relegated more than once through season long dire performances. Your team are part of your life and walking away just doesn’t happen.

I'm not walking away. Love my club. Disillusioned at the way we are progressing.

Stopping payments to FOH just doesn’t enter into the equation for me. As pissed off as I am with the team right now, no way will I ever stop my payments. Thats the one direct debit I’m happy to pay every month. To do so, on the back of some horrendous defeats is churlish. We are the lifeblood of the club. I’d be dishonouring the players that laid down their lives for this great club by doing so. We are the greatest club in the world and have the greatest fans by a country mile. We saved our club against  the odds and I never want to go through that again. We’ll still have a few more rough seasons until we reap the benefits and fruits of our labours. Let’s all pull together as we have so much left still to play for! HHGH

 

 

Me neither. I would guess some of those suggesting stopping payments don,t pledge anyway.

if he is planning on retiring at the end of the season, the sooner he let's us know, the better. 

 

Those threatening to cancel FOH subs, if the above was announced, would that change your mind?

No Hearts fan wants him away solely on the basis of the 90 minutes at Hamilton - it is the cumulative effect of numerous horrendous performances this season.

Am not happy with how we are playing... but if you said to me at the start of the season we would be in 2 cups semi’s, possible final and finish in the top 6, I would have taken it.

 

Our season has been spoiled by injuries but we have still done better than last year. 

 

He has done enough to carry on for another season. Improvement needed in how we play next year for him to carry on further.

[Jimw44]

He needs to announce retirement as soon as possible.  Too negative and his tactics are baffling 

 

[julienbrellier]

Lots of embarrassing comments on here from posters who only appear after defeats ?

 

however Levein I think should walk. I’ve stuck with him until now but results haven’t been good enough. Happy for him to take up some sort of advisory role to Budge and for a new manager to come in and freshen things up

Not saying it should, but just trying to understand why folk are threatening cancelling subs due to a poor second half of the season on the pitch. Hurting the club thru subs is going to affect more than just the management team (footballing side). It could affect the quality of manger we could attract, the quality of player we can sign, delay finishing the stand, etc.

The ones threatening to cancel are just in the huff after today. Victory against Aberdeen and all will be well again. Just ignore the drama queens not here 

[AlphonseCapone]

I don't want him here at the start of next season regardless now. I am willing to let him have a final stab at winning a trophy with us though but I'm not optimistic. 

[Gambo]

I think MsBudge has a very difficult decision on her hands.

A manager who has been handed a free pass to a final, but are we going there with an upbeat support?

[loveofthegame]

He should go. Preferably now to give us some hope in the Scottish Cup.

 

I like Mr Levein and there is no doubt he is a PHM but it really is dreadful stuff. 

 

Take away our incredible first two months we'd be bottom 4. His failure to deal with the loss of Naismith has been his downfall.

 

Should walk this week.
