And how would a lesser loss have rewarded him.

IIRC he accepted half pay before we accepted furlough.

 

So he accepted 30000 from the club when the alternative was 7500 from the government. He's been rewarded for something, people can make up their own minds whether it was success or failure.

Is that a fact?

Let’s be honest. His departure will result in about 40 renewals.


Exactly. Hardly a ****ing ticket tsunami. It’ll coincide with pay day for many too though, so it’ll be dressed up as such.

Are you sure this time Doug? 😁

I'm absolutely sure.  When I think of his shambolic reign it makes my blood boil.

 

Shame to see someone lose legend status which he had in my eyes, but that's exactly what has happened imo.

 

Staying on the staff for 4 months was the last straw.

I think the best thing about him leaving will be being able to talk about the many good things he’s done. I find the OTT shit-flinging nauseating.

Levein is the worst thing to happen to this club in many years.

 

Arrogant footballing dinosaur.

 

I hope he never ever darkens our door again.

Honestly not trying to be a smart arse, but could you list one good thing Levein has done for the club that is currently in place.

I've used your numbers, you tell me.

I think he opted for half pay before the club took advantage of furlough so at the time he didn't have the alternative.  Whether he was brought in to the scheme I do not know but the point is not so much what it cost the club as to what he sacrificed.  If he sacrified even one penny then that does not constiture reward for failure!

I love this thread.  I would like to see it in the classics after he is gone.  That way their is an opportunity for some to discuss their hero and all these amazing things he done for Hearts.

Seriously, what has he done?

 

Not looking for a spat I just can’t think of anything positive Craig W Levein has done.

Many of the best things he did are no longer still in place tbh, mate. He was my favourite player for a long time.

 

I suppose if you want me to name things under those specific guidelines, much of it would be the part he’s played in our history. His performances on the pitch, the derbies as our manager, wins against Celtic as manager, two third place finishes on the bounce, European wins etc. 
 

Other than that, some of the players he brought to Hearts or nurtured as our manager.

 

Those are the things I’ll remember, and enjoy watching. I’m already over how bad a job he did towards the end of his second tenure.

Again, not being smart but all these are from first spell as manager in 2000-04.

 

If only he’d left it there.

 

We all have the right to remember him as we wish but I’ll remember him for the absolute arrogant mess he made of the club in his second spell.

Not all of them. Some good results v them and them this time around. 
 

My post was that I look forward to him leaving so I can go back to just remembering the good times. There were plenty in his time with us as a player, captain, manager, and Director of football.

 

I don’t enjoy Hearts legends being abused. I appreciate you engaging with me in a non-pathetic manner on this subject. Too many do not.

I think we all thought the outcome would be so much different.

I hate to admit it but I felt something was missing after we were promoted, but!

The complaints in the Robbie era reminded me of the sheep fans in the 90s, be careful what you wish for.

The football was draining but we were up there.

I always remember a throw away comment after a game at Easter road when Stubbs was under pressure.

Levein apparently told Dempster “whatever you do, don’t listen to the fans.”

I think Ann Budge followed that mantra for too long.

There may be idiots but not all of us are.

Any business that doesn’t listen is asking for trouble.

I think Ann knew that but thought football may be different.

She should have followed her instincts.

This clown is no legend. He is no Hearts fan either. Wasted money on dross and was responsible for our slow decline which has left us relegated. What he has done to this great club is unforgivable.

Oh dear - when you're on the back foot and losing miserably let's resort to playing the man instead of owning up to your total failure to understand what went on.  Whether he lost or made millions is not the point here: it is whether he was rewarded for failure.

 

Pointing out a huge misconception in your post is hardly cheerleading, even your hero Michael Stewart would tell you that.

What Stendel did was magnificent, and Dikamona likewise, but again not entirely relevant.  You really need to try and put CL out of your mind as it cannot be doing your health any good.


What are you on about? On the back foot, where about?  
The Craig Levein “out your mind, obsessed” chat ironically comes from people like you who come on here and feel the need to try and defend the defenceless, who have nothing back by going “obsessed” and it would somehow be funny if he got another job at the club to wind up and troll genuine supporters who realise how much he’s set the club back in a era that was a clean slate and we should be thriving - not kicking about begging for league reconstruction because of one person only. 
 

You care about Levein more than hmfc.  It’s pathetic. 
 

Can you give your opinion on why Craig Levein is still taking a wage our our pockets when Stendel isn’t?  Why he didn’t resign in November instead of fleecing us as he did Leicester and the national job?  The guy has no morals, wouldn’t you agree?  Would you do similar? 
 

You slagged off others for being on furlough.  Your man has ripped clubs off especially the one you claim to support instead of having any dignity in resigning.  And that is fact. Money, out money pay his wages still and you going “blah blah blah he’s not doing anything at the club” doesn’t matter, he’s ripping the pish out of each and every one of us until his contract is completed because it’s not even Ann Budge’s money - it’s OURS. That’s why it matters.

 

Aye mod, banned off thread, I know. FTH

 

Daniel Stendel has shown up Levein what. proper man and A proper manager is.  Cares about our club more too.

His arrogance and ego destroyed his reputation. The pursuance of failure was ridiculous. He could have changed many times but was unable. Shame :(

Ann budge has done way more good than anything esle, but she was spellbound on this one. 

Hope she doesnt hand the responsibility for our recovery to any more, who cant motivate footballers to win important matches.

You're always on the back foot.

Did I say that?  Did I actually DEFEND him as opposed to highlighting your septic drivel?

I think he should make a clean break but i have to admit I would p*iss my breeks laffing at you and your like heading rowards combustion

You care about Levein more than hmfc.  It’s pathetic. 

What is pathetic is your unhidden admiration for Michael Stewart.  Good old Michael!
 

Can you give your opinion on why Craig Levein is still taking a wage our our pockets when Stendel isn’t?  Why he didn’t resign in November instead of fleecing us as he did Leicester and the national job?  The guy has no morals, wouldn’t you agree?  Would you do similar? 

I shall repeat what I said earlier in the thread for your benefit

CL was replaced as manager some months ago and if we had sacked him there and then he would have received  full payment of his contract at a time when possibly cash flow was important to the club.  As it happened he was kept on and for the last 3 months  or so of his contract is/has been receiving half pay.  If we assume he was on £5k pw in his dual role that's around £30k gross he has lost out on. 

 

You slagged off others for being on furlough.  Your man has ripped clubs off especially the one you claim to support instead of having any dignity in resigning.  And that is fact. Money, out money pay his wages still and you going “blah blah blah he’s not doing anything at the club” doesn’t matter, he’s ripping the pish out of each and every one of us until his contract is completed because it’s not even Ann Budge’s money - it’s OURS. That’s why it matters.

I did not slag anyone off for being on furlough.  I challenged someone about the possibillity of double standards.

As regards what happened with Scotland and Leicester I (and you probably) don'r know the full facts but nevertheless such an accusation would have had more credence if you had highlighted it BEFORE he came back to us.  Did you?

 

Aye mod, banned off thread, I know. FTH

What is this supposed to mean?

DS has behaved in exemplary fashion and so has Clevid.

Not knowing the difference between "there" and "their" is hardly a typing discrepancy

nor

when to use "did" and "done"

but if it makes you happy, I'll agree.

Using 'their' instead of 'there' was actually a predictive text posting from my phone so that one was a typing discrepancy.  Obviously I made similar mistake to you by not proof reading before posting.  I'll give you the other one though as that was poor.
