Heard we looked at him before. You might have heard it from a player but I doubt Budge/Anderson would have anything to do with him. 25 minutes ago, davieholt said: Yup it just puts our result away to RC in context. Yep - we can’t say “this why we should be beating pish like County” when Rangers and Celtic have both dropped points against pish as well. In the scheme of things from this weekend, whilst we should have won, the point we got was a better result in context than anything Celtic, Rangers, Hibs and Aberdeen got. Nothing to celebrate but in context it didn’t prove to be damaging. 11 minutes ago, Salad Fingers said: I'm glad Livi won for the obvious reasons but also, their guard might be down next week. They have that first win out the way and we know how generous we can be. Agreed. So often teams get a result against an arse cheek and then **** it up next game… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ll let’s think about this for a minute. The last time we were looking for another manager was after the season got halted 18 months ago. Well before Savage came in. So that means that Ann was in charge of the hiring. Are you trying to tell us that Ann Budge was keen on making ex con convicted drug dealer David Martindale the Hearts manager? Don’t think I’ll bother answering the bit in bold Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure why we should be any different. This league is known for these very tough away games against a much lower level of opposition. Think they've beaten Celtic, Aberdeen, Hibs, Well and others on their patch. They've done pretty well. I would admire them for it, if it wasn't for the summer of 2020 and appointing Mackay.

Fitzroy Pointon Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 Martindale at Hearts .

Yet often folk focus on the need to win in Glasgow as if that's what's always held us back. Agreed, dropping points against the weaker teams has been our undoing more often. But our inability to get results against the OF (which is worse in Glasgow, but almost as bad at home) has held us back too. The closest we have come to the title since 1986 was in 1997-8, where we were in the hunt throughout the season. We only lost two games v non-OF teams, and won 19/28 of those fixtures, but we managed 3 points from 8 games against the OF, drawing twice v Celtic and once v Rangers, and losing all the rest. In the end we finished 7 points behind Celtic and 5 behind Rangers. Turn just one loss v Celtic and one loss v Rangers into wins, and Hearts win the double.

bairdy Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 1 hour ago, Smith's right boot said: Celtic have a problem if they don't start fast. Thier style is almost like the blitzkrieg in ww2, hit them hard and fast. When it works, it works well but if they don't score and the game gets bogged down then they run out of steam. They have a problem, but as you say will probably hit a bit of form and rattle of 7/8 wins in a row. Rangers seem worse with crowds back! If we can win our two home games we'll be dong well. Aberdeen, rangers and Hibs all dropped home points this weekend. Despite folk calling the lesser teams shite and writing them off, every game is tough. Absolutely this.

Heard from a player at the club? That is total bollocks, and he is never the sort of person who would ever be considered for a place at Heart of Midlothian Football Club. It doesn't fit the image, and he's totally shite anyway. There is no way that players were informed that he was being considered. I also wasn't aware that players were often told the plans about replacing managers, when the current one is still in place. Talk about undermining the people in charge.

karipidis Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 (edited) Yesterday was frustrating, but i would say we have been the most impressive side out of all the clubs so far this season. The Livi result does make Saturday a bit tougher but should also focus the players to realise that no game is easy in this league.
