The other thread isn't " the concerned we are losing goals thread" or "concerns", it a Robbie out thread, official anaw..... Ludricous. Another win will not only put us further clear but shut down the lunatics for a few weeks. Win- win Significant numbers of Hearts fans (me included) did not want Neilson to be appointed. Some wanted Stendel to continue. Going further back some (yourself included) wanted Levein to continue. Some wanted an appointment with no previous connection to Hearts. However, now that he is here and doing the first job required of him fairly well it’s ludicrous and futile to call for him to be removed (and I certainly don’t see justification at this stage) Anyone wanting Hearts to lose to achieve the goal of getting rid of Robbie is not really a Hearts fan IMO but I haven’t seen a single post hoping that we lose or pissed off at winning. Im not at all concerned by RN getting a period of time to try and get us back to solid top six and challenging for European places. I just don’t think he is up to it and that’s my personal opinion even after a rare but welcome commanding performance on Tuesday. I’m pretty sure I’m not alone in those thoughts but I draw the line at wishing for Hearts to lose and wishing for him to fail. Quite the opposite and I’m sure I’m not alone in that either. BUT I do reserve the right to comment on his shortcomings (win or lose) until such time as they are eradicated in my eyes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naismith has the instincts of a penalty box striker so I can't see why he shouldn't play that position in rotation with Boyce, who might actually be better coming off the bench occasionally given his known fitness problems.

I agree that it’s silly whilst not knowing it’s content. I thought Robbie got it spot on on Tuesday. We played with intensity. We pressed high.Everything went through our best footballer and we retained width even after the injury. I wanted Armand to start but understand why he didn’t and he looked the part when he came on, in fact he improved us and we changed focus seamlessly when he did come on. There is no BUT in those comments BUT it was a rare excellent performance which I hope has shown him a better way. I don’t see how that could be argued with.

Lord Beni of Gorgie Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 Gordon Smith Kingsley Pops Halkett Halliday Irving Naismith GMS Boyce Henderson. Harsh on Walker but when Naismith fancies it, still our best player and works well with Collum. Healthy bench again Stewart White Haring Walker Gnando and a couple more to make up the numbers. 2 0 maybe a bit more of a professional performance when there is a good bit more at stake. We didn't take Raith seriously last week and paid, think we will be dialled in alright Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmm so what you are saying is that you didn't want Robbie, but wanting Hearts to loose to prove a point is wrong. However, even if he wins you will go on about his short comming until they are eradicated (forever? To prove a point?). I think you are trying to prove a point, and I am not sure Hearts has much to do with it, perhaps just the importance of your own opinion so that you at some point can say "I told you so".

I think he might hang the boots up this summer. I just wish Walker could give himself a shake and leave us in no doubt that he starts every game. On song he is a game changer.
