If Stendel is the Hipster choice, what does that make Jack Ross?

 

Not being "with it" and not knowing what a "hipster" was, I felt I needed to do some research. Lo and behold it appears Steven "Steve" Thompson is the epitome of that breed.

 

Grow a beard or mustache. Facial hair is a staple for hipster guys. It makes you look rugged. You can also grow your hair out down to your shoulders and pull it back with bandanas, hats, or hair ties. The more hair you have, the more you’ll look like a hipster.^[4]

• Invest in beard or ‘stache wax to keep your hair looking groomed and attractive. Trimming is also important to do every once in awhile.
• If you let your facial hair become scraggly, be aware that you’ll start to look like a mountain man hipster instead of an urban one. The choice is yours though, either look is trendy right now.
• Don't worry if you can't grow in full facial hair. It's an addition to the hipster look, not a requirement.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

PS what's worse, at the age of 73 it looks like I might be one too as I've got most of the following!! lol

Things You'll Need

• Hipster clothes
• Plaid shirts
• Scarves (to wear year-round)
• Vintage boots
• Tattoo (just if you want, but is preferable)
• Turntable
• An old camera (Polaroid is suggested.)
• Fixed-gear bike
• Your own garden
• Fountain pen
• Any Apple product always updated
• Instagram (remember to only post HD photos, though, you're too elite for iPhone quality)

Afraid not. Thomson is a dumpling ... Hipsters wouldn’t be seen dead with him.

 

 

This lad is a ‘hipster’ ..

 

Think west end of Glasgow, Brooklyn NY or Camden London. Not sure where the connection to Cathro comes from. The etymology of the word is to be found in the writings of Jack Kerouac, I believe ...

My opinion fwiw (absolutely nothing I know) is that he appears on paper to be exactly the type of manager we should be recruiting for all the comments above. However I fear Mrs Budge is going to go down the route of someone with years of experience but no great talent. I can understand why she'll do this after being bitten on the bum with the Cathro disaster but CL had years of experience and we've seen how well that ended for us! She needs to be bold in her appointment but I just think she'll go a version of safety first. 

Just hope she stays clear of ex players or managers it’s not what we need .

This guy ticks the boxes

Why out of interest? Stendel interests me but what if an ex Hearts player ticks all the boxes?

 

Some (most) of our best spells have been with ex players as our manager. Some like Sandy Clark didn't work out but IMO you get a little bit extra from an ex-player - maybe some more loyalty (not seeing the club as just a stepping stone for example), possibly some harder work and more motivation to do the job, plus an innate understanding of the club and fans and their expectations. What's wrong with us finding our version of Eddie Howe at Bournemouth, which someone like Neilson could turn out to be?

 

[gcjambo]

So will Stendel be given the chance to impress in an interview?

Davie Deans on the ‘Odds on next manager’ thread mentioned that Stendel has sent his CV to Hearts. Time will tell I suppose

I get what you are saying and I quite like the idea of it but let's remember Neilson jumped to go to MK Don's...which sort of undermines your point a little.

Didn't Eddie Howe leave to go to Burnley?

Yes. He also saw Bournemouth as a stepping stone and displayed a lack of the additional loyalty talked about. He's maybe since recognised the error he made (certainly appears so) but I think that's just as likely to happen with someone who has no previous ties prior to their first spell as a manager.

Both adopt modern training methods that propel their team to 10 game+ winless runs. 
Both know nothing of the Scottish game. 
Both attract football hipsters. 😂

 

 

 

 

 

Bit harsh to say Cathro knows nothing of the Scottish game. After all he is Scottish, and cut his teeth coaching at Dundee United.

 

As for Stendel, you're right, he doesn't have knowledge on the Scottish game. But I doubt he knew much about League One in England either before he beat the likes of Sunderland and Portsmouth to promotion, losing 7 games out of 46 and massively winning the fans over with his brand of high-press attacking football.

[Zico82]

Some of this talk likening Stendel to Cathro is extremely harsh on Stendel.

 

Cathro had never been a manager before...…..Stendel did brilliantly last season with Barnsley and the losing streak at the start of this season followed him unsuccessfully pleading over the summer with the owners for transfer funds to improve the squad for the step up in league as he knew the current team wasn't good enough....he was proved right!

To be fair to Stendel, Barnsley reported it as a sacking because he refused to go back after they sold all his star players and didn't have intentions of replacing them in a better league and expected him to do the same job, Barnsley are a bit of a car crash right now and they reported it this way to put themselves in a better light, the fans were seriously unimpressed with what the club done to him (that was from a Tykes fan)

 

Personally, this is the guy I really want at Hearts, I reckon his style of play would sell the stadium out again instead of the big swathing gaps we have just now because of the utter dross served up to use for far too long, he's also very much a fans person, he would mingle and become a favourite, and for marketing purposes this guy could be more than just a manager for us.

Can't see it happening.  We appear to have narrowed down the list of unemployed managers to four and have already interviewed them.

 

What we will probably never know (and it's frustrating) is whether or not Stendel and some of the other managers listed actually put their CV's into Hearts.

If you need any more convincing, have a read of this from a Sunderland fans website.

Think Stendel threw his name in the hat for Hibs so if he's on the radar then can't do any worse than at least offer him an interview.

I  100% agree about Stendel.  

16100 tickets sold last week for a game against St Mirren shows there is still enthusiasm for the club.

A successful Hearts team would sell out every week.

Is Stendel disputing his dismissal from Barnsley, and could that impact on the timing of his availability to take up a new job.

Spot on just saying this now how can we not play a high pressing game at home we did when we played rangers for the first 15 minutes and i take it people forgot about this too?  If we don't get stendel I would rather Austin got a chance to see what he can do ideally though i would like Austin sporting director and Stendel first team manager with Stendels coaches.

Most likely so mate if only someone could inform Ann he's available and if we sold the club to him and the opportunity to split the old firm who could turn that down? 

 

This myth that clubs can't challenge the old firm absolute bull crap if u have belief and set your team up in a positive way you can achieve the unexpected any time we play Rangers or Celtic at home we should expect 3 points minimum cut the allocation to two sections at most turn Tynecastle into a cauldron **** them im sick of clubs pandering to them lets make this club a force at our worst Aberdeen couldn't beat us at our worst hibs couldn't beat us raise the fecking bar Hearts we can challenge we have to believe though 🇱🇻🇱🇻.

Based on what? Why would he be interested? Come to a 2 horse league where there is a very slim chance of winning anything. Just because we think managing Hearts is a great job, he'd probably be far better off waiting for a Championship job to come up.

Because Scotland is a footballing backwater with no interest outside of Scotland. Because he doesn't want to live in Scotland. Because he wants too much money, because he has his eye on another job.
