Super_Hans Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 1 hour ago, Shaggy2 said: Davie Moyes with Steven Naismith doing his apprenticeship as number 2. If he’s successful he will probably be gone within 2 years and if he wants to take Naismith we’d have to be compensated for 2 years of a playing contract. If not, a smooth transition to Naismith as manager. Aim high!!! Would make sense having Naismith in the coaching staff seeing he has a four year deal and has worked with Moyes before. If Killie managed to appoint Clarke, I see no reason we can't at least sound him out to see if he's remotely interested. Would be an incredible appointment.

PapaShango Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 He has Martin Foyle ex Port Vale player who does scouting for him down south, has unearthed a few gems for Motherwell recently.

sac Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 Robinson! No thanks. It’s only the 1st day of recruitment ffs, let’s wait & see who applies first, it’s like a panic appointment. At least give potential applicants on the shortlist a chance to state their case. We’ve an opportunity here to maybe get someone far superior to Robinson.

NB GIN Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 Hearts are making an official approach to Motherwell for Stephen Robinson as they look to appoint him as their new manager, Football Insider understands. The SPL club have set their sights on the 44-year-old to replace sacked Craig Levein and are ready to pay the £120,000 compensation needed to prise hm from Fir Park. Looks likely he is the one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Beni of Gorgie Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 (edited) Moyes should be the starting point, at least a question. From there, I really hope we have learned from Hibs, English lower league managers knowing nothing about Scotland sign the likes of Christian Doidge, among other misfits. Not averse to a manager from abroad though, they seem to have broader mindsets than the Englander. If we look within Scotland, it can only really be a choice of Robinson, Holt or the Hearts man angle, McCann, Robbo, Neilson. Holt basically bulldozes matches, albeit very well. McCann couldn't handle the pressure at Dundee, don't fancy him when things get mental, and with us, that wont take long to happen at all. Neilson, well, perhaps that would be just too samey, never going to be accepted as himself. Robbo, interesting, but no real exposure to the Premier of late, it would be a risk. He would certainly have the fans backing, but there are some genuinely big players in that changing room now, and I think it requires perhaps more street cred than Robbo may have with the players specifically. Which leaves Robinson. Undeniably he has done a decent job at Motherwell, and in difficult circumstances. Attacks, likes width, physical. But there is nothing there we haven't seen from other managers, is he up to a job like this one? With so much doubt over who can take on, what can now only be described as a poisoned chalice, its important we make maximum effort to get a strong character, I would certainly begin that process understanding what it would take to entice a Moyes Edited November 1, 2019 by Sir Gio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a11ank Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 Very underwhelmed if it is Robinson. Should fit in nicely with all the Irish accents at Tynecastle though! Please Hearts don't rush into this. Wait and see who is out there that might not cost us anything. If Robinson comes I will be on here to wish him all the best, but we really need to see who else might be unearthed before approaching someone who at best has been fairly average as a manager (in my own honest view of him). I heard that Moyes might have been on the radar. If we are looking for someone with decent pedigree and great contacts he should be worth an interview at the very least Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
