Ok he’s previously been a better coach at Hearts than Stendel then. 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stendel has a much better record down South. It doesn't prove at all that Neilson is a much better manager at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I thought the links posted about that were quite interesting. Was pretty clear we didn't have the players for it though...

SectionFJambo Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 Not sure I get the romantic notion a lot of Hearts fans seem to have the Stendel was a good choice or did an ok job. He was a bomb scare from start to finish, his squad selection, motivation etc. was poor. He is as culpable as anyone else for us going down. Not a view most will agree with but I do believe we would have been better off sticking with what we had or bringing in someone a bit closer to home. Maybe I am being generous however at a point we go to St Mirren knowing the season could be called off at any point and a victory could be the difference between relegation and survival I don't believe Levein and co lose. Everything which came out of him was noise that wasn't replicated on what was occurring on the field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DesertDawg Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 I guess you've forgotten that his squad beat Rangers at Tynecastle twice, destroyed Hibs at Easter Road, with their fans leaving soon after half time, (nothing new there) and drew with 3rd place Motherwell. Another 8 games and we'd have been well clear of the relegation zone. . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything which came out of him was noise that wasn't replicated on what was occurring on the field. I can't see any reason to expect Craig Leveins team to have won at Paisley. Stendel failed and there's no proving either way if Levein could have done better (you can't get worse than bottom though). In Leveins final game against St Johnstone the players had absolutely nothing left. They just showed up and tried to get through the 90 minutes, no drive or ambition to win the game, they had **** all left to give. That's why Budge binned him.

Don't take this the wrong way but you clearly hate kickback so why do you bother? You add nothing to any thread and simply have not earned the right to make snidey wee comments like that. No offence.

I have nothing bad to say about the lad , he did not get a fair crack. No on knows how things would of turned out , if the last 8 games had been played. That is about it really. Wish him all the best. I will listen to the podcast when it is free, curious. this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
