Stendelnator Posted April 8, 2021 Posted April 8, 2021 38 minutes ago, Tom Hardy’s Dug said: In the two most important games we’ve had against them in the cup finals we certainly didn’t bottle it and there is a a good argument to say our performances in those games deserved more than they got. And for whatever reason Aberdeen have regularly raised their game against the Huns. Whoever the manager. Equally whilst we’ve had some bad performances against Rangers recently in the “Budge era”’we have probably a better than average win record against them. I don’t know for sure but some statto I am sure will back that or bomb me out. No but we still lost, as did Aberdeen. So why are they being accused of ‘bottling’ but we’re not? I just think it’s a lazy thing to say. On paper, finishing third and reaching the cup final looks like a pretty good achievement to me considering where we are right now. Pretty sure Aberdeen have won at Celtic Park and Ibrox more recently than us too.

I mean its not as if he got offered more money elsewhere while our fans were actively asking for him to leave, protesting and flying planes over the stadium demanding his removal. How dare he leave under those circumstances. If you think Neilson left because of a plane flying over Tynecastle then that's delusional thinking and shows him as a weak individual. Surely he would've wanted to stay and prove the plane-fliers wrong and to give them a "get-it-right-up-ye!" no!? I believe he thought he'd taken Hearts as far as he could. Yes, he might've wanted a new challenge but if he'd hung around a few more weeks he could've possibly had the choice of a few clubs. Managers are always getting sacked down south, he could've held on and waited until a better club came in for him but, he didn't. He got out of Tynecastle at the first club to flash their keks at him. You also have to ask why the fans wanted him to leave. I was in Tynecastle week-on-week and almost every game at full-time fans (not all) booed the performances. We lost quite a few points late on due to poor keep-what-we-have substitutions rather than going all out to get that extra goal to take the pressure off. Also, there was no big hoo-haa or outrage by fans or even media when he did leave. He done nothing at MK Dons and he was soon given the bullet. Dundee Utd fans wanted rid of him for over a year, the most common complaint/moan was that the football is "shite and dull" (Where have we heard that before). Once again i didn't hear any outrage when he walked out on them to come back to Tynecastle. All Robbie needed to do was learn from past mistakes, change his style of play to an attractive one instead of this side-to-side, tippy-tappy stuff with little to no excitement. He walks into opposition managers' traps nearly every week and struggles to break teams down.

Surely he'd have anticipated teams sitting in against us this season but he constantly uses it as an excuse. It's up to us to find a way around it but all we do is plod along side to side and then back again.

Was he on the bench last week? RN said it'd been decided for a while anyway, and I'm sure other players will be 99% sure their time is up, even if it isn't set in stone yet. Tbh, it's not a sufficient excuse, as managers still need to get performances out of players that are leaving, only on loan, or whatever. However, our squad is in a terrible state, so I have sympathy for the current management.

I don't think he left because of the plane, but I think an offer came in and he knew he wasnt wanted because of that and a number of other actions the fans had taken, so he took it. My point is only that to call him a traitor or to hold it against him in any way for leaving is wrong because we tried to drive him out! He gave us what we wanted! Agree with everything else you've said though, he's proven himself to be quite a pish manager.

Imagine this group of players being told by this clown of a manager that they weren't good enough to be at Hearts! They must have pi$$ed themselves laughing when the fraud broke the news to them. I would imagine that the most likely scenario was that the players whose contracts end at the end of this season would be screaming at their agents to get them out of this sh*tshow. The others, as you allude to with a year or two left will probably ride out Neilson's anti football, snorefest! However, the likelihood is that Neilson is the one that is done!.....Lost the dressing room, lost the fans.....Not really much going for him...Budge will act sooner rather than later....She cannot afford not to!

Hendolad Posted April 20, 2021 Author Posted April 20, 2021 Ok following up from my open post on this page (I said to my son after that I wouldn't post again) Robbie or whatever you want to call him will leave the club within a fortnight.New manager is in place and between him and Savage signing targets have been identified. If our manager isn't gone by then I will close my Kickback account down.as before believe what you want but I thought this may be of some interest.
