Francis Albert Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 (edited) 5 hours ago, Brighton Jambo said: Stendhal got a couple of results against big teams but was hopeless against teams we expected to beat. Which is the last thing we need this season. Also, how tiresome is that after one defeat we see threads like this one. Predictable but frustrating none the less. We had been hopeless against teams we expected to beat for nearly two seasons before Stendhal arrived. His predecessor however still survived on the payroll beyond Stendhal's departure. Also it is not just one defeat that people are concerned about but a majority of very disapponting performances against teams we rightly expected to beat - fairly comfortably.

DS98 Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 Stendel was pish. Too many excuses are being made for him. He is partly responsible for us being bottom. His tactics were absolutely bat shit mental and he failed miserably against the dross. The game we were 2-0 down at home to Hamilton could’ve ended up worse then the Livi fiasco if their boy hadn’t been sent off. And it was 100% down to his awful tactics.

loveofthegame Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 Stendel was a failure. He didn’t get us out of the position we were in, not even the new manager bump, and his signings were hopeless. There was little to nothing to suggest he was going to get us out of the mess levein left us in. Dare I say it that if he was called Daniel Stevens from Scotland with the same record he’d have been spoken about in a very different way...

Managers need trust and time just look at Rangers? You know what the problem is even when we were bottom of the league, the media and other teams couldn't stand that hearts had to be the potential, of being the best possession based team in the league and best at pressing, they label us big hard physical turgid hearts, the guy was trying to implement a way of playing that is modern, and personally speaking is the way forward in how football is played today. Are we really going to sit there and say his two wins against the huns and his skelping against hibs was just a fluke. Judged against all other results during his time with us I’d have to say they did look like flukes. Not one of them was expected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

part_time_jambo Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 Irrespective of whatever else Neilson achieved last time, he was always going to be judged on losing a 2-0 lead to Hibs in the Scottish Cup. This time round he has beat Hibs in the Scottish Cup. It’s only fair that he is also judged on that until other results deem otherwise, and that means more than just one defeat, disappointing though it was.
