Салатные палочки Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 Great interview with the beat Hearts manager of my lifetime. https://www.scotsman.com/sport/football/hearts/interview-jim-jefferies-on-his-near-death-experience-and-why-he-would-have-stepped-in-as-hearts-caretaker-1-5047151 Who knew that within three years this man would win us the Cup? BTW, that looks like Bett on the bench but I thought he was gone by the time JJ was appointed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye Ive just looked at that. At the start if 95-96 theres only 2 only pre season Tynecastle friendlies- Newcastle and Man City. Jim Bett is on the bench for the Newcastle one as is Leitch but doesnt seem involved at all for the 5-1 romping of City. Thats probably that then.

Martin Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 JJ is the true definition of a proper Hearts man - fan, player, captain, manager, legend. So good to see him fighting fit after his health scare and it would be great if we could find a role for him at the club. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldGorgie Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 JJ is a great guy. Went to same school as me. A Jambo through and through but it’s not fair to suggest he should be SD.
