I mean that’s a fact and not even up for debate. If we’d been slightly less brutal and only 2nd bottom they wouldn’t have had the chance to vote us down, it would have been Hamilton or St Mirren (depending on what game or games we improved in - only had to win last game at St Mirren to send them down instead). For me, you can’t just forget the role our players and managers played in putting us in this league and just blame the SPFL, Doncaster, Dundee vote, the other clubs. It was a combination of all of these. Agreed. That makes total sense. 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Beni of Gorgie Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 It has to be the worst 6 game unbeaten run ever. Though what Neilson says is not necessarily untrue you would expect Hearts to have won at least 2 of these games if not blowing the other team away. For 70 minutes we were largely untroubled and had some decent chances at the end, but laboured is an understatement. No flow, no rhythm and a terrible lack of quality in the final third. I had better hope with Neilson to be honest, but yet another grey bland Scottish manager. He is not alone, in fact he is pretty much the norm, and that's just the problem with Scottish football, being safe. Alas Tommy Wright showed what was possible by choking the life out of a football match. Attritional pish, but at this lowly level, Neilson needs to be way braver and drop the ridiculous safety valve Halliday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was not 2 reasons for our demotion, fair enough we are Hearts we should not have been as shite as we were but it would be the same if it was St Mirren or Hamilton with a handful of points in it they shouldn’t have been relegated nobody should have. If the season wasn’t finished and the the race to beat the drop was still close then no it shouldn’t have happened. the only reason for us being demoted was the illegal vote. Which was corrupt in itself. Know what I retract my hibby comment you have probably followed hearts a lot longer than me I am 30.

Deary me if that happens. nowhere near good enough. He couldn’t set up a table never mind a side. as usual we attack in the last 10 minutes. awful stuff.

But for me every Hearts manager is simply keeping the bench warm until Robbo returns. I don't think he will, but I hope he does. Robbo might get a cameo in the next few years, but I don't think he's the answer either. Much as I love him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll be very surprised if the league isn’t well and truly in the bag after those. Agree, 3 wins and a draw from they 4 would mean the league is over as you say. We'd be unbeaten in 10 as well. However A couple of defeats and wins for Dunfermline would be depressing and make things far too interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
