Technically no doubt he's a great wee player but the other side may bold him back Have thought that from day 1. Shows up in reserve games as well. They have tried the old coaching methods to improve his running style but to no avail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking back can see that he was a winner, although back in them days anyone at the end of his mauling, would say he was a dirty *******..His favorite saying was, he would come down on you like a tonne of bricks. 14 or not. We were a bunch of little ***** to though. I was in South Africa in 1997 when Telfer and McGeechancoached an unfancied British Lions team. His training sessions were thought to be brutal and his pre match speaches are a thing of legend. I had the good fortune to meet him at a few functions and he was a good crack but you wouldn't want to mess with him. His club and Country meant everything to him and it came across in his after dinner speaches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thinking back on it today i can see that he was a real leader, wanted the best for us all. He personally gave me a load of chances, i never let him down or played in a losing side during my brief stint at Rugby. I was only at Forries a year same at Deans. Can still hear his voice ripping through me, we were shaking with fear as he prowled. Your all a let down to yourself s, get out there and sort it out.

Give him the chance to win his place, that is all he is worth right now. I have called him Shighton a few times in the past, that was different times though. Since then he has been at Arbroath had a good doing and scored some goals. My recent optimization is from watching the Hearts TV highlights of training bounce games 11v11 and a friendly from friday night. At the moment he gets a break, competition time is where he will be judged. If up to me none of them would be near Hearts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olly is good for maybe 8 to 10 at this level. Thats without factoring in the Roberts and Frear who look lively and above Championship level and good for a few goals this season.

Think we're going to see some entertaining football. Defence worries me for the bigger games and potential Cup runs but hopefully that will get sorted. Other than that what gives me the fear is covid uncertainty and I'm hoping it doesn't derail the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

allanwilson1970 Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 What worries me is that Irving apart it seems Robbi does not rate the others to be at the right level for us to be playing them this season. If you told me at ages19/20 that McDonald, Cochrane, Henderson would be as close to first team as me I would have thought you had gone mad. Even Connor Smith by now I thought would have been good enough. The first priority is to win the league and that is what I care about but surely we should be producing players at 19/20 who are ready. Obviously something has gone wrong for that not to be the case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a part of me that think Robbie does rate, and does want the youngsters to do well, but on the flip side this is such a big season for us to go straight back up that he doesn't want to rely and put extra pressure on the younger ones, and so has brought in a few older and more experienced players to carry the burden.
