Give it a rest eh. If you are looking for the person who’s inflicted the most damage in this clubs history it’s definitely not Stendel. Although he is still on the payroll, presumably on 100% of his wage. Not to worry though, he’s been taking a salary for doing nothing for months anyway so Covid-19 will have no impact on his output.

Crazy though it may seem, with us at the foot of the table, and great uncertainty about our status next season, recent events have increased my pride at being a Jambo - impressive things that Hearts have been the first to do in Scotland! First there was Ann Budge’s proactive outspoken stance regarding the relegation decision. Then there was her proactive decision to take “immediate action to cut staff costs and overheads”. Acting swiftly, as she said, “to ensure that we, as a Club, can weather the storm”. Despite the stupid “Hearts are insolvent” talk, this will prove to be a prudent step. Now we have Daniel’s selfless and exemplary decision to not take his wage. Bravo! Three outstanding ways where we are leading the way, leading by example. Makes this Jambo proud!

He's not a stupid man either. Very far from it I reckon Budge will privately be incredibly disappointed at how this has all gone wrong. She clearly gave Levein far too much responsibility and far too much time. Both of those decisions have proved absolutely catastrophic Making a great return on hidden gems and promotion of youth to first team for exposure and eventual sale was the model Budge and Levein kept going on about. Neither could be further from the reality that has unfolded. Continually having to build a new squad every year. Levein never built a team despite having more than enough resources to do so. Budge supported him fully including last summer when player budget was clearly pushed. Academy is producing nothing of note either 6 years on. Budge is paying a very heavy cost for misplaced loyalty Stendel makes this selfless gesture whilst Levein hangs on grimly speaks to their respective characters I very much doubt we'll see Stendel here next season. Unless he evaluates the situation and feels we can rip up the Championship if we are eventually relegated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
