Gambo Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 With 95% of fans against him, the players not performing for him how the hell at 12.15pm on Monday is he still in a job? What other club would still have him at the helm with 95% of fans against him? Is it a case of Budge against everyone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether he succeeds in his career is another thing altogether. Good luck to him. I would rather see Moore and Morrison trying and failing rather than the journeyman wingers brought it.

It was also good when he finally left at the end of his contract and our ST sales went from 5k to over 11k, much to Budge’s surprise.

Gordon - pass Halliday - pass (i think he does the dirty stuff to allow Irving to perform - which Irving hasnt) Roberts / Frear - both offer something but have not performed Popescu - this place is bonkers - he epitomises it - hes awesome - hes shite etc , personally if id made that pass for the Queens first id expect not to play for a lonnnnng time. Ginnelly - showed glimpses , cant keep fit but we signed him in the Championship , jury is out GMS - seems to be settling down - think he will come good McEneff - has looked good and seems to have a good football brain - similar to GMS i think he will come good Kastaneer - made a lot of good runs but gets lost in the game - think hes been made a scapegoat a bit Gnanduillet - has superb feet , misses some easy chances , his disallowed goal on Sat and the winner v Dundee (??) show he can do it. Up there with Sow in potential but needs to do more imo Fair judgements, probably more positive than most would be saying right now but it is what it is. I think what most frutrates me at the moment is that we have two very good (on paper!) midfielders in Ollie Lee and Damour either out on loan or completely demotivated and outof the picture. Irving should not be trying to carry this team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dare say his six-figure salary (for achieving the club’s worst-ever result) and no doubt substantial pay-off will be some small comfort to him at this difficult time. They all know what they’re getting into. He’ll doubtless be up and running with a smile on his face at a lesser club within weeks. In any case, Neilson doesn’t seem aware of anything that is going on around him, to judge from his public pronouncements. I think it unlikely that he even looks at Kickback. (In case you think I’m being nasty, I’ve actually always had a lot of time for Robbie, especially as a player. It’s just that he’s not cut out to manage Hearts and should now see his employer spare him - and us - further embarrassment from diddy teams.)

Ann will be creating 3 new roles before considering any action. Neilson will be a shoe in for "new employee concierge", get him escorting his replacement around Tynecastle and Riccarton, he can even impart his knowledge of the squad to the new man that'll help cut down on the time to get him up to speed. McCulloch might take up the role of "dental consultant", Berra was offered this role first but he's chosen to move on. Forrest can be "full time youtube executive scout" and feedback to Savage with any findings, if the budget stretches we'll even get him a copy of the latest Football Manager to work on. Sorted.
