Victorian Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 Budge did say she may well ask Levein's opinion on managerial candidates. Others are free to fly into a panic but if she limits it to asking him his opinion and not effectively farming out the decision then there's no harm. Would people rather it was all done on the quiet so that their wee imaginations could run riot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t wish him harm, I don’t hate him but he has presided over a terrible time for Hearts on the pitch and like any football manager he must pay the price with his job. Or not, in the very unique way we are being run. Edited November 5, 2019 by Adam_the_legend . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam_the_legend Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 Here’s what I’m referring to. Maybe I conflated the presser with another interview but she definitely said it. I’m not going to stop talking to Craig. If I get to a point where I’ve two or three candidates will I ask his opinion? Yes, probably. “But what I don’t want to do is let people think he’s going to be involved in the recruitment process. “I might ask his opinion in the same way as I would ask someone else’s opinion if I thought they were suitably qualified. But I’m going to be talking to Craig potentially even more than I did in the past because of the role we are shaping up.” “Will I ask Craig for input? Well, I might well do, yes. He has seen a lot more than I have but I’m also talking to a lot of other clubs because they’ve gone through this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Four faces Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 He might not have the final say but to go from him having no input in the process to having an opinion in the process is a contradiction and we should be used to that by now.

This is the key point. I actually said on here when it was first announced that I was paranoid it was all a bit of a smokescreen. She’s talking about the structure of his role and his remit, very odd. billy Davies apparently said when he was interviewed the last time that he would need to make big changes and move CL on. It’s Billy Davies so was rightly told to bolt but what if all our potential candidates suggest CL should go, will she push him out properly or we will we end up with the best manager willing to work with the previous failed manager rather than the best manager full stop.

Yep. Would Levein suggest a manager that wants no input from Levein himself for instance? He should really be completely gone from the club, there’s no reason he should be there and it’s going to do more harm than good with the support.

If he's the last port of call then hecould be the determining factor on who we actually take. From Cathro to Daly and Fox he is not someone who should have any influence on who our new manager is.

FOH Hearts money was/ is used for the stadium and for paying Budge back. Also, when you give the club money, it is no longer the fans, it's the clubs. She's not stealing money from the fans like a cartoon villain Ffs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
