In football terms a freak of nature. Had a David Speedie spring in his jump, aggressive, comfy in possession, could read the game and knew when and when not to attack the ball. I doubt we’d cover enough of those bases for a player playing at Hearts in a notoriously hectic, aggressive division. A few times of being turned too easy on our own 18 yard box would see a smaller than normal CH being binned. Michael Smith isn’t big but as a stop gap he has been excellent at CH.

Not writing him off yet, but he seriously needs to look at his weight / fitness. That goal in the last game against St Mirren, he was blowing out his erse trying keep up with the striker, Him and Damour badly at fault and not for the first time.

Going to St Mirren and playing a high line like that in a must-win game when they are happy to punt it even at home and have fast runners up front. 61% and fewer shots and corners than St Mirren.

The payment from Man City will be in installments and will include a 31% sell on clause to Hearts. Hearts will not pay any percent of his wage if he does return on loan. A left winger is also being looked at on loan from City. Colin Doyle to leave soon. Interest in John Souttar from Aston Villa, John McGinn has suggested that he is considered. Michael Smith is in the thoughts of several english championship sides, aswell as Rangers. Sam Nicholson desperate to come back to Hearts but has interest from Bristol City & Aberdeen. Robbie has earmarked 6 current players he would like to move on, and is in discussion regarding a player from dunfermline and a loan signing from Arsenal. 3 ex players are currently out of contract and have offered to come back for little or no wages until January. Keen on a central midfielder who is at Motherwell. A single one of these likely to happen? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BackOfTheNet Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 (edited) I’ve moaned much on previous transfer threads (particularly January ones) about the non-sensical lack of activity at weekends, giving that windows are short periods you’d think clubs would have personell in place as well as associations for processing paperwork 7 days a week - particularly as I say in January when you lose around a week of 4 weeks capability. I used to avoid threads and looking for activity at weekends for the reasons mentioned, especially as they drag without any football to keep you occupied. But nothing prepares me for the chronic boredom that this ridiculous expulsion and resulting legal issues have been causing. Basically no activity in the transfer market can really happen until at LEAST arbitration is complete. Imagine the boring non-activity of a weekend during a regular transfer window except it lasts months! This is brutal. Can’t even enjoy a transfer window anymore because of the SPFL ********.

Jumper Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 Until this arbitration thing is finished how can we go about any transfer business? I know it's been made unlikely by the SPFL but there is still a remote chance the demotion gets overturned.
