It is impossible, completely impossible for neilson to survive. At best he has fans who tolerate him, there will be relative silence when things are going wel but as soon as anything goes wrong it will be a knife through the back. he’s finished. And I few a bit sorry for him but it’s mainly his own fault. You do not get away with some of the results we had last season ever! At any club of note Hearts fans will support the team and the manager. Meanwhile you will continue to wallow in your misery, have fun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably his finest moment, sadly. Felt sorry for him. Most overhyped youngster ever and it just didn't work out. Point being hype doesn't always translate to performance for any number of reasons. The hobos may or may not have unearthed a gem. Time will tell. A wee positive for us though is that more pressure now on our recruitment department to find our potential gem.

He also lost to League One Hull City in the league cup the same season. The Championship in England is an actual league. As opposed to the one in Scotland.

Like I say, maybe it's been a connection thing, maybe he's been sold on the stepping stone thing, maybe they're paying him more than they should, who knows. Also... This "infested" chat is chronic. Just because someone thinks Hibs have made a good signing, all of a sudden he's an actual Hibee? Grow up pal! Tbf though, just because you watch the MLS on TV for your work doesn't automatically make your opinion bullet proof. We all know people who watch the EPL on TV or Scottish football in the flesh, whose opinions on players, have you scratching your head.

Not sure what the Championship has got to do with it. Leeds losing that game and in the manner every bit as bad as losing to Brora. What he has done before and after far outweigh that, but much easier to put context into someone else's business other than your own. Press down South stunned Neilson is under pressure. 20 0 in the last 8 games yet folk are obsessed by every bad result discounting the good ones. Leeds fans thankfully have more balls than our ones apparently, riding out their mini crisis that it is barely mentioned and easily forgotten Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
