The state he has been allowed to get this club into with the stability and resources at his disposal is nothing short of a scandal. It is with regret given Levein's standing as player that I have to agree with this. He has - and has been allowed to - put a team in a position it should never be in with the resources we have. We're battling against teams with a couple of dozen supporters, ffs. Folk need to wake up. Edited February 14, 2020 by Haken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jambo-Fox Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 I really struggle to understand why there is so much personal hatred voiced by so many towards Craig Levein! In my lifetime he has been right up there with the best, player, manager, DoF. But sadly more recently in his second spell as manger he had a bad run without much luck with a few bad decisions thrown in! However his last role at Hearts cannot wipe out all the good he has done for Hearts in the past including being one of the most talented to ever wear the maroon shirt. Surely .... Give the man some respect and look to a bright future ..... happy days will come at some point in the future HHGH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Five to One Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 He's still here, and picking up a wage. A ridiculous situation. Not in charge, but how do we know he's not undermining DS? I really can't believe an intelligent person like Ann Budge would back him the way she has. I would imagine the full truth about this season will come out in due course.

KineticBeat Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 It's difficult to know. We would still be bottom at best and cut further adrift at worse in my opinion. The definite points you can count on if Levein was still here are: - Sean Clare would still be rubbish - We would have kept Berra, Whelan and they'd probably still be in the first XI - We would not have signed Langer, Sibbick and Avidaj - We would not have beaten Rangers - We would not have scored 3 goals at St. Johnstone to rescue a point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
