Kinkster Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 18 minutes ago, The Treasurer said: I've defended him in the past but it wasn't just the result it was the performance. He clearly is unable to motivate the players and has to go now. Most of the players should be out as well as they are obviously not interested in playing for Hearts If you cut through the vermin trolls, then this is where I believe most fans are at.

After The Watershed Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 I've given him slack for the league as the objective was to get us promoted. But that result tonight is unforgivable. He has to go. I'd be happy to see the majority of that side go as well. Players and management have embarrassed our club tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hm123fc Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 Having overseen the worst result in the club's history, there is no choice, he has to go. The fact that we are clear in the Championship table does not cut it. The standard in the championship is the weakest for years and the second place team has only won 8 out of 20 matches. Have we improved players who we signed this season? - no, they go backwards Is our youth policy producing a regular flow of talent ready for first team football -no, they look good when they first come in and then disappear Do the players look like they are playing for the manager? - no, some don't even look interested Are we tactically astute? no, we are not even tactically average Do we need root and branch reform - absolutely and the sooner the better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There will be problems, we have a number of players out of contract who are either not signing or know they are going in a few months. Some others that will know they are trying to get moved on. Yet these players are required to get results for us. It's shite, but still no excuse for tonight's result. ****ing nonsense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skinnybob72 Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 (edited) If the manager is not sacked on the back of what is without a shadow of a doubt our most embarrassing result ever in the SC then something is badly wrong at the club. If he’s not sacked we’re basically saying that it’s an acceptable result. Levein should have been dismissed immediately after the 0-5 at Livingston, Neilson needs to go after this. The league position should not save him. Edited March 23, 2021 by skinnybob72 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is not right is that the club is soft from top to bottom and it has been very badly run. The Budge/FOH kicked off debt free and the brave new world looked good following promotion. It's been a sad decline since and we are in substantial debt. We need fundamental change throughout the club. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The above is the very reason to sack neilson tonight and appoint either Alex Neil or McInnes in the morning, give them the rest of the season to sift through the squad to identify who just hasn’t been coached properly and who just isn’t good enough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martoon Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 The Sportsound interview was excruciating in many ways. Brian McLaughlen (sp) did try to push RN regarding the awfulness of the result, performance and supporter discontent but all he got in reply were hollow soundbites. I like Robbie. Sound Hearts player, Cup winner and great coach first time around but we've been mostly abysmal for months. He's not going to lead Hearts into a bright new future. Neither was Levein. Obvious to me early doors, in both cases, which doesn't make me a know all as many others saw it coming, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like Neilson, I think he has always done a decent job and things like tonight happen from time to time so I'm willing to forgive him. Budge, not so much. But getting knocked out the cup is not the end of the world. We are still on track to get promoted. Have to say I don’t agree We have been absolutely awful for a good while now, he has got it tactically wrong on a ridiculous number of occasions this season and he’s proven to be tactically inept.

Corstorphine Jambo Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 I didn’t fancy him coming back, but naturally hoped it would work out. Dear Lord, it really hasn’t. Okay, we’ll very likely get promoted, but if there had been a half decent team in this league with us, we wouldn’t be top. What’s been served up most weeks has been dire. Out the cups by Alloa and Brora. It’s the stuff of nightmares. I do ask myself why Neilson took this job? Maybe it was simply about money - or I fear it was the promise of a nice cushy number. The club is soft. Full of players and staff with no desire. Summed up by the sheer excitement from McCulloch and Halliday when Rangers won the league. These boys, and there will be more, are just on easy street. And don’t get me started on the recent signings........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Djm1874 Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 Worst result in the clubs history. Time is up robbie this is not an isolated incident. We have been terrible in so many games this year. Knocked out of the cups by alloa and brora rangers. Cost the clubs thousands. paying my season ticket and foh subs for this.. it’s simply not ok. it’s unacceptable it’s enough and it’s time to go.
