andyscott82 Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 Delighted at this! Our recent downfall started when he left us. Our most successful manager in recent years by far. Is it too early to resurrect the Style Guru thread? Plus the bonus of noising up the absolute dafties in our support is delicious! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taffin Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 Just now, whodanny said: My answer is in the previous post. Have you got a whole list of biting witty comments you are working through ? Except it isn't though, is it? You said you don't care about my opinion so I asked why you bothered to engage on it in that case? Especially in such a confrontational manner. I've not even said it's a bad appointment 😂 I liked him as a player, I liked him as a manager. I also liked Stendel and wanted him to stay on. That may not have been possible of course. If it wasn't, I'd have preferred we didn't re-employ a previous manager as I don't think it tends to be a good move. I also think it will have created division within the support when this whole debacle has made us much more united than we've been for quite a while and therefore may have been best avoided. You then kicked off about planes and that folk who don't think it's the right appointment should stay away and that you don't give a **** about my opinion despite me clearly saying I liked him as manager first time around.

Kiwidoug Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 Very pleased. I just hope he fully utilises Gary Locke in the build-up to derbies and that he has a major say in the choice of DoF and the roles and responsibilities of that position. Sincere thanks to Daniel Stendel. Not responsible in any way for what's gone wrong and presided over two terrific wins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hearts00 Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 I just don’t know what to make of this at all. If we are indeed in the Championship it is a very safe appointment. Maybe after the disastrous last four seasons “safe” is what we need. I like most wanted Stendel to have more time. I am also willing to admit I wanted Neilson to leave the last time as was becoming very disillusioned at where the team was heading back then. Of course I didn’t expect it to implode the way it has after he left. ...I just don’t know what to think. must have had a buy out clause in his contract as no way Utd would have let us speak to him otherwise.

MattyK82 Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 Welcome back Robbie. Never should have left when he did imo. The ‘no style, no bottle’ banner was and still is ludicrous. Interested to see how he does this time around. If we play in the championship, he’s already won that league twice with two different teams, the first time - by about 75 pts! If we are correctly reinstated to the top flight, he knows the league well and he has a bit more managerial experience under his belt now. He’ll need a squad overhaul of epic proportions though - as would anyone who took the reins. Now, back to the courtroom thread 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I probably didn't word it well either to be fair reading it back, I read what you were saying as anyone who didn't think this was the right appointment should stay away. I'm not one of the banner tools and I agree we don't need them at Tynecastle. I'm still disappointed by this appointment though because rightly or wrongly (wrongly imo) this probably will divide the support again sadly...at a time when we've really come together. I'll be 100% right behind Neilson though and hope he's learnt from some of his previous mistakes with experience; which I'm sure he will have done. Feel for Stendel though as his time was a nightmare and I really liked him. Crossed wires, crazy times, bolts from the blue. We're both behind Robbie, so let's shake and make up 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
