Nothing wrong with demanding change through financial means. The fans have gone above and beyond for years. Time to use the muscle we have. There is no evidence that poor performance results in action taken within the club. Well, with the money we put in every month, that action can be taken externally. A month of missed subs isn't going to destroy the club, but it might be the wake up call needed by those who make decisions.

 

Agreed, even if it turns out to be a useless gesture, it would provide a degree of satisfaction that I am no longer supporting the Losers associated with our club.

I'd like Neilson to succeed but sadly that just isn't good enough.  He should be thanked for his efforts in securing promotion but should be gone as soon as the league is wrapped up mathematically.  The players should also be ashamed of themselves.

Ann Budge is an intelligent successful businesswoman - however she is feckin clueless on how to run the football side of the business! 

She's a successful entrepreneur but clearly clueless as a businesswoman...

This. He’s on a three year deal, no chance given the high payout it would cost us he’ll be away anytime soon unless we lost the league. No chance he’ll resign either.

 

He’s not going anywhere anytime soon.

 The payout would ne the best investment wr could make.

The players (most of them) won’t give a shit.

This was without doubt the worst result in the club's entire history. We lost to a bunch of part-timers who haven't even played for months...No manager can survive this.

Agreed.  I live up in the Highlands and rumour is they were struggling to cobble a team together tonight.  

 

Every minute Neilson remains in the job is rubbing salt in the wound.

Really disappointing that I can't agree with this when it comes to Hearts. He'll be with us as long as Budge is in charge imo.

Equalised against the mighty Brora Rangers...and then took the foot right off the gas again.

 

What the holy ****. We’re the laughing stock of football around the country and you know what, it’s totally ****ing deserved.

It’s almost like he said get an equaliser and we will beat them in ET when they tire.

We’ve struggled against Cowdenbeath, East Fife, Alloa, Arbroath and now Brora this season. 
 

Even in the defeat to Raith Rovers.....they had some part-timers playing.

 

We haven’t been so low since the early 80’s.

Agree totally.  RN will not survive this, I hope the club make a quick decision, if not we are on for further pain but there is no way back for him now.

Robbie says "We have turned it around in areas". I wonder if he would care to explain what areas have been turned round since last season?

We never lost to the equivalent of Brora Rangers in the early 80s. Or any time in our near 150 year old history.

Hearts official Twitter page is fecked. 

The hobbit trolls are out in force. 

**** me. I’m sorry but that has to be the final straw? Not seen interview as I’m in Oz. But going by the reactions on here he’s blaming last season? 

Nielson I’m afraid is a complete arse hat. If Budge doesn’t sack him then we are in dire straights. Never felt this angry since we lost to Dundee 86. 

Nielson do one ya flat faced prick. I’m not taking yer shite anymore. 

No way back from this surely??

My thoughts exactly. I hoped Robbie would be the right man for the job and was prepared to back him, but this is not a Hearts side that I enjoy watching. I have endured some poor footballing sides in the 1979’s, but I honestly feel no connection to the current squad at all and tonight’s result, in my opinion is the most embarrassing result in the club’s history. The manager should go regardless of our league position 

This is pretty much where I'm at, had been backing Robbie, but tonight showed no one's playing for him, lost the dressing room,  time to go!

Never have I considered this to be the right thing to do, however if this shitshow is going to continue then it might be the only course of action that hits home to the board.

 

I have threatened countless times over last 4 years to myself, due to the decline in our club from THE TOP downwards, to stop. I love my club and have donated since day dot. I haven't as I don't want to harm my club, but the waste of resources over this last 4 years plus is frankly criminal. Will I tomorrow if RN is still in charge? 50/50 tbh. You have to make a stand at some point, and 7 years plus, whatever it is, of donating month in, month out, when the clubs has declined beyond one I recognise, dictates my patience and desire may finally have been beaten....

 

Very very sad for the real fans of our club....imagine what JJ say, must be wanting to say/do with his next meeting with her.... 🤯🤬😠😡😤

Maybe a bit away yet but I felt months ago the current climate felt like the time we were heading into the yo yo years during the 70s, early 80s

 

Weak leadership at the top, continual sub standard performances and signings, has-beens still being trusted etc..

We alo managed a similar defeat to Alloa. They had never defeated Hearts in over 100 years. It is turning out to be some Cup runs.....

Robbie will not walk.

 

Budge will not sack him.

 

The club has wasted millions of pounds of our cash, Ann Budge is getting her money back!!!

 

Its a bloody disgrace.

The biggest concern is that this shocking result hasn't come as a surprise
The only person unlikely to be angry enough to do something about it won't.
The club won't be right in a footballing sense until she has gone

Agree completely. 
Since Budge came in it has only been Levein and his pals in his coaching school. 
Stendal only got the job when Austin buggered up his audition. 
And it’s funny that Stendal, the only one who wasn’t one of Levein’s prodigy’s, was ruthlessly sacked as soon as they could get their original chosen one back in yet it took the fans nearly rioting before she removed Cathro or Levein. 
Even after sacking Levein he wasn’t really sacked!
Nothing will change until there is a complete change.

I noticed neilson referred himself as the head coach a few times in the interview. Felt like he was having a dig at the signings and his lack of say.

Suspect you’re right. 
I’m an optimist usually

I really wanted to back Robbie as wanted to give him a fair chance, especially given his hearts credentials, but the last while has been brutal

I’ve now officially lost any hope  he can improve things 

fear though as you say, the scales are still tipped against him going 

I’m in the same boat really. It does take managers a couple of seasons to create and build their team whilst putting their own style into things and I get that. My problem is, and probably along with many others is the utter dross that we’re forking out (and let’s not be frank) a hell of a lot of money to watch. 
 

Winning the championship is by far the objective for this season and the priority and I don’t care how it’s done. But getting papped out to Brora Rangers in yet another absolutely dreadful performance with some expensive and highly payed players with our resources is shambolic.

 

Sadly the feeling for me at this moment in time is a complete symmetrical of the crap that ended us up in the Championship anyway!

 

I hope Robbie can find the spark, but I’m getting impatient along with everyone else. He must be glad there’s no fans allowed in at the moment!

I hate this.  He’ll be doing all he can by saying fake positive shite in an attempt to convince his highers there’s progress.
 

Are they that stupid?

If We think we are a big club then we must start showing it and Neilson must be sacked in the morning . If not then we are accepting blatant failure  again . Disgraceful mismanagement of a great club .

If RN is still an employee of Hearts at lunchtime on Wednesday, then the problems at HMFC run much deeper than just an incompetent manager.

I am as angry as anyone tonight but her bank.balance is not growing. Her ego and her judgement however, and her ack of understanding of "the football department" is doing a lot of damage.

I’ve had de ja vous from the recent levein demise 

Thinking we’ll surely be better this week

weeks turned to months

Sad for Robbie but we simply can’t let that happen again 

root and branch change is needed sharpish

He’s welcome to find another club that makes him manager then.

It will be interesting to see how we do against QOTS on Saturday and then away to Dunfermline the following week.

 

We need a massive reaction from the players and at least a show of some effort if not for themselves then for their fans who have supported the club through thick and thin.
