Maybe so, but their view is bullshit. They pay no attention to Hearts, they don't watch our games, they don't take into consideration the budget we have compared to the other teams,  all they see is the points on the table of a poor league. 

Agree, sky sports opinion is worthless/best ignored.

Neilson has resigned jokes for April Fool's Day are not funny.

Sky Sports doesn’t even know the difference between Hibs and Hearts. (Mind you, it’s possible to conclude that the person running our club doesn’t either.) Remember that pre-match graphic when they had the badge and club name mixed up?

Can't remember that. The bottom line with Robbie is the club are just going to make exactly the same mistakes as they did with Levein. Two seasons ago CL had a fantastic start and then all downhill from there, apart from the odd decent performance. The club simply ignored all the warning signs until it was too late. Rinse and repeat with Neilson. The signs are there, ignore the fans, ignore the signs. Next season ****ed before it starts.

I mean, taking anything Sky Sports says about Scottish football seriously is a perfectly reasonable position to adopt as long as you’re aware of the following:

 

- the presenter posing the dumb questions someone else has fed him may have a vague memory of hearing about two clubs whose names begin with R and C but otherwise has as much knowledge of Scottish football as my dug*
- that presenter is bored shitless and grimly filling in time until he can get back to the next EPL story

- the washed-up Scottish football “personality” being interviewed is inevitably part of the Old Pals circuit and will automatically close ranks behind whichever failed manager’s inadequacies have led to the story in the first place.

probably correct but then who gives a toss what the football community thinks (whoever they are)

 

the protest does appear to be bonkers if you are too uneducated or too lazy to look into it - even if you do look into it some may believe it still to be bonkers

 

sounds like the foremost broadcaster is in the former camp

 

sounds like snakey added some context so good for that - I often think the content of what he says is pretty good - unfortunately a self-centred snake and poor manager 

Credibility of the club can be damaged by support as well as board. If it develops into war nobody worth their salt will take it.

Kickback is for the rabid among us. Not many I have gone to Tynecastle over the years indulge and tend to have less extreme views. 

 

Season tickets will show what damage is happening. 

 

Really don't want us to become the poisoned chalice, we need to be careful. 

 

For example ditching manager because we only won the League by 10 points reads very differently to looking for new manager due to promotion and seeking a higher level

There’s no point giving a young player a chance to show us what he can do because I’ll be dropping him for a 33-yr old player anyway. 
 

If he won’t play him when the league is all but won then Cammy needs to move on.

If RN is staying then it probably is better he moves on or at least secures a longer loan next season so he can settle into a club and make his mark. No player should be moved on if Robbie is going though.

9 or 10 games for Cove, his first competitive games for a year, gets match fit, looks after himself over a very short summer and is then 100% ready for pre-season with Hearts. Sounds like excellent youth development planning to me.

I don't think we can recall him from his loan.  If we were able to do so maybe Shay Logan would not have been signed.

At least with Levein, it was in the top division and the injuries to the core of the team were immense by comparison to Neilson's.  (Plus, Levein had serious health issues to boot).  NB Just making a comparison and not defending CL, so please put the rabid dogs back in their cages).

 

One injury, apparently, has derailed our season???

You're not allowed to use injuries as a factor - the Levein haters will will be on here in their droves and accuse you of being a happy clapper.  We can just see what happened to Liverpool when they lost Gomez, Van Dijk and Henderson  - or Spurs who only lost Kane and started abseiling.  To be fair to RN he was without arguably the best keeper in Scotland as well as Smith, Kingsley and Naismith for the 2 recent defeats but I felt we should still have had enough to at least beat Brora comfortably.

Not saying different. But considering fewer injuries, poorer league and no health issues. Robbie has a far easier job.

True, but Robbie will still deliver on promotion ( I think). 

So as I said elsewhere it's like cl's last season in reverse. 

 

Promotion 

Beat hibs in sc semi 

But

Out of lc and sc to shite 

 

CL ended up 6th but made the lc sf and final, still not an automatic sacking imo for a Hearts manager. 

 

Robbies Cup record, mainly the loss to Brora is terrible, but he will Litterally finish as  high as he could in the league - automatic sacking? 

 

I guess it's all about if the board thinks he can deliver in the league as he did on promotion last time or if the sc result was so poor he does not get the chance to do that. 

 

I'm 50/50, can see merit in both sides. 

 

Him and the players are ****ing tits for losing that game to Brora. Still can't believe that.

JS was appointed as Sporting Director after stints at Hamilton, Norwich and PNE, all involving key responsibility for scouting and recruitment.  I doubt he would have come to play second fiddle to anyone.  With that sort of previous experience, only a cynic, or someone utterly biased against the club, would believe that he is not now the scouting supremo, communication or not.  Despite that I would expect heavy input from the manager before a signing is completed as he is the one who will ultimately carry the can.

Yes I would expect Neilson to have a big say on who we sign that’s the worrying thing for us all. Hearts seem to have the knack of getting a good player and making him worse. 

[mitch41]

Have we ever had a manager, who the Hearts fans have became angry at him and wanted him sacked, that survived and made good. I can’t remember one and I know Robbie Neilson will not be one.

I see he’s talking now about Hearts being a more “vocal” team.
