Backs up my view that it's personal about Neilson (and Budge) for far too many for reasons that have been discussed that are not to do with the performance of the team on the pitch. I'd have way more sympathy for the assessment of both of their times at Hearts if there weren't so many personal and sustained attacks on people trying to do their best for the club. The road to hell is paved with good intentions. Never was a saying more apt for HMFC under Budge. Or in her case, the road to the Championship. Time for change - we've had enough of "trying". We need "succeeding" and it's LONG overdue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the real end game for the people who have wanted Neilson out almost from the day he walked through the door. I personally think Budge will leave once the handover happens and things are back to normal and that would be a good time to change manager if next season's manager fails. For someone who clearly doesn't like or rate Budge you have more faith in her ability to replace Neilson with someone better than I do.

He plays slow tempo, boring, unimaginative football, with no real tactical nous. His signings have been on the whole poor and he's not given any of the young guys a chance this season. I can't see him being particularly inspirational in the dressing room either if his post match interviews are anything to go by. He got lucky last time round as we'd assembled a good team with guys like Gomis, Bauben, Sow, Alexander in goals, Patterson etc. He dismantled that team too quickly and anyone who went to the games could see we were on a downward spiral before he left.

Are you honestly happy with the way the team has performed over the past 5+ years?? Budge took over when we were in the championship and now after 7 years we are no further forward in terms of the club growing and progressing. piss poor after piss poor managerial appointments and horrific recruitment falls at the top dogs door. The reason people don’t like Neilson has everything to do with Budge and Neilson can only manage to his best abilities which aren't near as good for a club this size.He has very limited abilities,no tactical noose,no charisma and the fans can see right through it. He clearly knows there is no way Budge is going to sack him so he’s on cloud nine,untouchable,irreplaceable and is getting arrogant and cock sure with knowing the fact.His little jibes at the fans in recent interviews confirms this.

sandylejambo Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 give him the start of next season and see how he does? I have seen how he does and he's fikken hopeless, no player has got better under him, he has brought utter crap to our team and continued to play them no matter how bad they performed (Roberts , Frear to name but two) and only dropping them when the clueless fans would have dropped them weeks before, we play the lowest energy football I have ever seen in my life, even at armature level. NO, we have all saw his management capabilities and they are severely lacking in all areas. so get your coat Robbie, the only people wanting you to stay are wind-up merchants and Mrs Budge.

The pandemic has zilch to do with WHO runs a football club - it's about having the right people in position. As for it being rushed : it's been 7 years and there's no plan from the FOH leadership. There are some tough questions to be answered by them & Budge re how the club is to be run going forward. These questions are being asked now because they have been allowed to drift along fo so long. It has been anything but "rushed". I'm out on this now - this thread about getting Neilson out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anything illustrates Budge’s acceptance of mediocrity, it is keeping the mediocre Robbie Neilson after he has presided over a season that we ‘achieved’ the bare minimum. The ‘achievement’ was on a par with one half of the Old Firm managing to finishing second in the top league. Behind that you had the dreadful cup results, backed up with some dreadful league results , poor recruitment, eye-bleedingly pedestrian football, a failure to adapt tactics, under performing players, embarrassing excuse making for every bad result and a total lack of self-awareness from the manager.

It hasn't been good enough, and at some point the club will have to address the fan discontent/disconnect head on when they come asking for us to renew season tickets. They'll have to back him unequivocally and publicly, something they've not done since Broara, and ask us to do likewise. I'm sure we'll make some good signings, but will Robbie know how to set the team up, get them to respond to him, get the best out of them?

3fingersreid Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 RN has done the very minimum required this season, promotion . However that was achieved more as a drunken stagger home rather than a proud march to the title and our reinstatement to the top flight . I wasn’t one who thought we’d go undefeated or even win all our games , I did however expect to see a faster more attacking set up and not watch games where I was actually bored and indeed only watched because it was Hearts on the tv. Cup results however were unacceptable . Thanks for getting us back up , but the time to go our separate ways is here . 🏆🇱🇻 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He may just have not articulated well what he meant and that key target was simply promotion but he said we surpassed the points target we set which ended up the equivalent of all home games won, 1 away win and 12 away draws. I think we are a good 8 points at least short. At start of season someone said with our squad we would 'only' get 57 and in reality the rest of the teams can barely each put 2 squad equivalent players to ours, I'd have been disappointed.

Somehow I just feel that the fun is just starting. Questions remain unanswered regarding the FoH takeover, Budge's, ambitious plans (sic!) for the club.

DH1986 Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 Ok......he’s staying. He’s ridden the storm and he’s been saved by AB’s stubbornness. He now has this transfer window to get things right......neither RN or AB can allow or afford for this next batch of signings not be anything other than excellent. No more Frears, Popescus or Kastaneer types. Next seasons squad has to hit the ground running......we need to compete with Aberdeen and Hibs as best of the rest. Another season of limping around mid table is just not acceptable. RN has to ditch his shitty cautiousness that clouds his judgement all too often. Go out and try and win EVERY game....even having the idea of being satisfied at a draw for every away match is the wrong mindset imo. He is still Hearts manager by the skin of his teeth and I think he knows it......he is back on trial and has no wiggle room for mistakes. Get it right or get out.......

By now we all know what we’re going to get with Neilson. Most of us appear not to like it. Last time I take anything the BBC Scotland commentary team say as a fact!

He now has this transfer window to get things right......neither RN or AB can allow or afford for this next batch of signings not be anything other than excellent. No more Frears, Popescus or Kastaneer types. Next seasons squad has to hit the ground running......we need to compete with Aberdeen and Hibs as best of the rest. Another season of limping around mid table is just not acceptable. RN has to ditch his shitty cautiousness that clouds his judgement all too often. Go out and try and win EVERY game....even having the idea of being satisfied at a draw for every away match is the wrong mindset imo. He is still Hearts manager by the skin of his teeth and I think he knows it......he is back on trial and has no wiggle room for mistakes. Get it right or get out....... Not sure he's ridden out the storm....more likely he is in the eye of the storm! Still think he is on borrowed time.....The trust and goodwill deserted him a long time ago.....He's terminal Edited May 1, 2021 by Hashimoto Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting pumped out the LC by part time Alloa isn't good enough. Getting pumped out the SC by Brora certainly isn't good enough. So he can lick his arse about points targets and goals scored all he wants. It's not been good enough. However, it's clear he's here to stay so I will curb my moaning about him for a bit and see what the summer brings in terms of players in/out. Gogsy has hit the nail clean on the nut here. I believe we can do much better than Neilson but he's here to stay, for a bit a least, so we need to give him our support. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing that can buy him some more time is an almost perfect start to the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
