Leveins Battalion Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 Would not surprise me in the slightest,would fit in with our shambles of a signing policy. Right now fans do not care about who we sign,the only thing we are concentrating on is removing both Budge and Neilson,it would seem Ann is quite happy to go to war with the very hand that feeds the club.She needs removed asap and the FOH need to step up!

Sherbet Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 nobody should be getting signed for next season if this is true then budge has obviously backed neilsen and effectively telling the fans to GTF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baxfee Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 You guys need to get a grip. We could sign Ronaldo and you’d all moan saying budge and Neilson are piss. You have your agenda and nothing else matters. I’m totally fed up with the vile you are spouting. You have no idea what being a hearts fan means. You are only a small number but cos you post to excess it saturates the site. It’s boring, malicious and not appropriate.

Deevers Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 Interesting if true. I remember quite a few on here screaming that we should have been signing Crawford a few years ago when he was at Hamilton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not exactly some young prospect, he played at Hamilton Accies for the best part of a decade before being punted out to Doncaster, Bolton and Tranmere, scoring a total of 4 goals since 2018.

upgotheheads Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 I remember him as midfielder in the Scott Robinson mould but with a very good free kick. A useful squad member maybe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HighTimes Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 No idea if he's a good buy or not but he'll end up shit under Neilson and his coaches. Just like everyone else they touch. Plus, the fact we're still looking at signings suggest Budge has yet again ****ed up and decided to stick with a dud Get them both out of our club.

DETTY29 Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 Signing players that should do a better than decent job then not due to Neilson and tactics is one thing. Calling players crap because they have been signed by Neilson, Budge is a completely different matter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RustyRightPeg Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 We had him on trial the last time we were in championship I’m sure and we rejected him and he went down south and played league 1/2 until now. Squad player at best and absolutely certain he’s not the answer and being 5/6 years older than when we initially wanted him it again makes me look and question the scouting network.

OTT Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 (edited) This isn't good recruitment. Elliot Frear mk 2. Another player too old to develop, too old to ever hope to sell. Unless they have international caps or are making a rival tick, I don't think we should be concerning ourselves with players over 25. Build a young hungry squad supported with senior players who have been around the block like Gordon. We should have good enough coaches that can improve players to be able to fit into some kind of business plan, rather than being a ****ing charity for the mediocre.

LarrysRightFoot Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 With the best will in the world, no matter how much Budge likes Neilson surely they will be reviewing his position at the end of the season at the latest. So why on earth would you allow him to make signings for next season. Everyone knows his position in untenable. Ann just keeps making it worse.

He needs to go and we need to be building for next season. The longer we leave it, the less prep we have for next season as we don't know what his successor wants. Quite frankly a competent, POSITIVE manager could take our current squad comfortably to top 6, maybe even higher, and also give us some entertainment on the way. We all know Robbie has little chance of the former, and zero chance of the latter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Wrinkly Ninja Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 Would have attached 'the kind of signing that Hibs would make' to this rumour in the past and every Hearts fan would have understood that to be the insult that it is intended to be. Depressingly, 'the kind of signing that Hibs would make' can no longer be widely acknowledged as an insult compared to our signing policy over the last 5 years. Ali Crawford is now 'the kind of signing that Hearts would make'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ford Prentice Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 If Neilson were to say "I've been to see him several times in the last few months. We've tested his fitness and measured his pace. I've talked to him at length about his motivation and his ambition...." then I might feel positive about this. He won't and I don't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lost in space Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 Crawford is a little tiger on the park unlike the pussy cats we have now (I thought I had better not say "pussies"). He was one of the main reasons that Hamilton stayed in Prem. BUT that was "then". He is soon to be 30 and although that is not old, he has limited time left and will start to slow down. It is good that we are looking for players who have a bit more ATTITUDE but this is depressing news, if true. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tennant's 6's Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 Crawford would've been a decent signing a few yes ago, adding tenacity & decent strike from distance, not so sure now though..

There's an outside chance we sign Ali Campbell by mistake. At least he could sing Rat in my Kitchen to Hibs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
