Budge should leave at the end of the season

What’s budget got to do with timing?? And how do you know if he’s in or out of our budget? ITK?

League One pays way above what we do. Didn’t levein get 180k or so for two jobs. Stendel will be on double that potentially. Plus his staff. Plus a new SD. We’re pushing the boat out here and folk are still moaning.

Feel sorry for her. Put all her faith in CL & is now being slaughtered for it. Probably never worked so hard in the last five years when she could have retired & been sitting on her cabin cruiser with her feet up. Couldn’t blame her if she gave up at the end of the season.

Seems reasonable when you buy a family stand ticket you want a family atmosphere. The story is why there is a need for that leaflet.

Shes earned the right to correct giving Levein to much power and time. This appointment upcoming will be her final BIG decision and she is taking the time to get it right. I accept that.

 

Its been all downhill since Neilson left. And it wasn’t budge who forced him out. It was the muppets in our own support. Probably the ones who now want her gone.

Exactly

Obviously. Cathro’s idea of his own talent and I think Levein’s arrogance meant he got the Hearts job way too soon. He should have done what Ross did - and Levein himself - and start at a lower level.

[eyesandears]

Am I the only one thinking that there are parallels here with DS, gulp, and Gary Caldwell. Caldwell won League One, Stendel went up in second a couple of seasons later with a couple more wins than Caldwell's Wigan. Both binned shortly into Championship season. I believe their styles seem to be very different but maybe a bit of caution on immediate expectation required if Ann does get her man.

 

Sorry now moved this to DS thread

Like Robbie, she will not be hounded out of anywhere. She, like Robbie, will leave of her own volition.

A football fan with a weird agenda is capable of convincing themselves that any absurdity is true apparently. 

Hounded out by 6 neds and an aeroplane.

He quit while his star was high. He chose a shit club in a shit league and signed some really shit players. He then fell flat on his face.  Always have good memories of him in the Championship season but he never fulfilled his potential after that.

Getting up at 3am every 2nd week to watch some of the most cowardly, insipid away performances still bothers me. Signing Connor Sammon, Oshaniwa etc and the Euro embarrassment. 

He wasn't bad. He just wasn't great. Better than the two since then obviously but they were both disastrous.

You actually think that's why Robbie left Hearts? He said himself that none of that bothered him. Do you have any evidence to support your claim?

A group of nomarks with no brains who barely mustered double figures in number. Yep, that was enough to make Neilson run away!

Gotta love revisionism. That time RN said how he missed having a DOF. All that shit he he had to endure ? Nothing  against Robbie but clearly not the sharpest tool in the box. In his own words he went to  bad set up.

Skooshed the Championship, third place in the big league, then... second... then...

But why do you think a few threads on JKB and the neds / plane made him decide to leave? I'd say at least 90% of fans were still with him. At least, not actively wanting rid of him. If you spend a lot of time on the internet / social media, you maybe think that something was huge as you saw it each day but in the real world, most people were largely unaware.

There were some people unhappy with him but there was no campaign by anyone beyond a few neds doing bumps in their stone island polo shirts. 

I'm sure Robbie did what he did because he thought it was the right move for him.  That's what he said at the time. To suggest he was forced out is absolutely insane.

I was kind of happy he left too because i thought he'd done all he could have. Our away form was catastrophic and the complete capitulations we witnessed away from home were terrible to watch. We could have done better. We clearly didn't because of Levein and Budge but we clearly didn't know that at the time.

There was a campaign to remove Levein. 100% indisputable fact.

There was serious unrest towards the end of Cathro but even that never got to the regular protests and stay aways.

Robbie, there were some threads on JKB, some neds hired a plane and some pondlife said some mean personal stuff on twitter. Hard to really call that a campaign.

How have you been short changed? Where does it say anywhere that following a football team and buying a ticket means you ‘deserve’ to see a winning team? We’d obviously all like that but it’s never been guaranteed in my 35 years of following hearts. 

 

OK so you are you happy and satisfied with the first team style of football, performances and results over the last 2-3 years? I feel the fans have been massively short changed over this period in terms of what we put in to what we get out.

 

Two league wins this year at Tynecastle, currently sitting near the bottom of the league following two 6th place finishes the last two seasons.

 

I expect the club to manage their resources much better than they have been. It’s not winning cups, just punching our weight.
