Can't imagine she was so indecisive with her IT company. I think she had a partner in the company, maybe he was the bad cop. I’m not sure what difficult decisions would you have to make in that business, it was a good time to be in it. She’s shown she’s not a great business person quite clearly. I’d love anyone to list things she’s done that were visionary or revolutionary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holey mother of christ, if that's the standards he's aiming for, we're well and truly donald ducked. Can’t decide if he believes it or if it’s the ramblings of a desperate man, trying to hold on to his job. I’m leaning towards he actually believes it which is quite incredible.

Nelly Terraces Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 You just know that even if we do manage it (not a done deal by any stretch) the clueless halfwits (well Budge) will try & give it some kind of big celebration at such a huge 'achievement'.🙈 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing visionary or revolutionary right enough but she has got us a new stand and improved other things around the club with the major exception of the prime aim of Hearts to function as a successful football club!

Nothing that any other person wouldn’t do. Speaking of the stand it’s ugly, unfinished, way over budget and built by a company that had never taken on such a big project, turns out it was member of her family. Now she wants to build a training ground before she goes, do you want her to waste more millions of our money on that? Do you want her to pick another manager?

None of the usual suspect strike me as having much in the way of charisma. FWIW I thought Stendell could have taken on that journey had Budge not chickened out and gone with the old boys club.

Obviously we won’t get Cryuff/Pep types but you mentioned Fergie earlier on and he started at East Stirlingshire. There are good managers out there, you just need to know what you’re looking for. I think everyone would agree Budge struggles in that respect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing is the value would come back up again as soon as we get a decent coach/team and the feel good factor returns to the club. Everyone feels so disconnected right now, FOH payments stopped, season tickets sales will slump, fewer sales at the club shop but it can all turn with a change of directors and coaches.
