They’ll be available by the end of the month.

Haven’t heard any different but I’m getting a bit anxious about the delay here. May have jumped gun about yesterday with all the distractions with Scotland game etc but no reason why today shouldn’t be the day. 
 

Some boys are in training.

Hearts TV boy is self isolating. Dont know if true, sounds like a good rumour to put about type disclaimer

Marketing is about yes maximising the exposure from a news announcement, but also, channeling that exposure towards things that generate revenue. Eg a new shirt launch or suchlike. A certain time of day could result in more or less shirt sales / ticket sales off the back of the announcement. Or maybe trying to grow the following, the Twitter is at 94k right now, imagine they’ll have an internal goal to get that to 100k 

 

Can also be used to boost dwindling sales of said new shirts or season ticket renewals, if both are still selling at an expected level then they may want to hold off a day or two in case there is a dip

Eek, can't believe I'm about to type this, but I've always quite liked him as a player.  I know age is the issue, and I haven't seen him play for a bit, but I'm just puttin it out there he's always been a decent player imo!

 

If we were going with him as backup to 2/3 other CHs and he kinda wanted to just be back in Scotland and take a squad type wage, don't see the issue.  Guessing Flatman will go out on loan, Hamilton isn't a CH, so he wouldn't be in anyone's way and we need 4, maybe 5 options at CH.

 

Not advocating but just think people would be losing their shit over something they needn't!

 

I'm here as well, he'd stroll into out team. 

He's never been fast either so not an issue if he's a bit slower. 

 

If we signed him and 2/3 younger players that improve us I'd be happy. 

 

Folk get too hung up on age, balance is needed but no need to lose our shit at every older player who signs. 

 

Our best player isn't far of 40, and he made a massive difference to the team.

That says he's killie's new GK coach. Christ.

 

Showing the other keepers his blooper reel; 'just do the exact opposite of all this, and you'll be fine.'

All these supposed reasons or excuses for why we haven’t revealed a new signing, not ITK but ffs it’s because we haven’t signed anyone.

Been trying to think of the last player Hearts signed whom I'd actually heard of - quickly realised it was GMS. There have not been that many in the last few years which is odd given the amount of football on TV and the internet...

The boy Gordon I’m sure I’d heard of before.

Thats a bit of an odd comment... GMS was one of the last players we've signed - and we signed Logan afterwards whom surely you've heard of?? At the beginning of the season we signed Gordon, Halliday, in the 4-5 season before we've signed Boyce, Lafferty, Whelan, Perreira, Hughes, Edwards, Lee, Mulraney, Buaben, Gomis, Sammon, Isma, Watt just off the top of my head... We won't have heard of everyone who comes through the door and not all the ones we heard of were actually good, but surely if you watch Scottish/UK football you've heard of all of them and that's a not bad number??

Anyone else dreading Neilson getting more money to waste?

 

I so wish he was gone.

He has an eye for an injured journeyman or 5.

I have the distinct feeling whenever there is an announcement my level of whelm will be that of an early 80’s hit single by Men at Work.

That’ll be “Who Can It Be Now?” as opposed to us re-signing McGowan, McGowan, Edwards etc and blasting out “Down Under”

I was at the stadium earlier today and asked a few folk about who RN was showing around last week and I’m told it was two agents. Not much news but least we know it wasn’t actual players.

Thats so true. Why has nobody noticed until now? 

 

 

Has he? 

Neilson doesn't have a record for signing injured players / journeyman.

"Losing the dressing room" 😂😂😂 when did that happen then?

He hasn’t its just some shite people have come out with to suit themselves. 
 

Some people fairly considered it during our poor run as a possible explanation for the disjointedness. Others its as above

This thread is really depressing. Think we had now run out of excuses for no signings. All of the potential reasons have come and gone. Definitely starting to get worried about our squad for this season

He would have to go some to beat Craig Levein for duff signings.

Seems like yesterday that goal from big Osman. Probably because that was basically the last enjoyable team to watch, all downhill when he left basically :lol: 

 

Apparently off to Thailand. Never realised he was Dundee’s top scorer, 10 goals good effort from the big man after a tough few seasons with injury.

Bit of a reality check if we were ever in for him then. We signed Olly Lee from them.

Shame to miss out on him, though seemed a long shot. Glad he has not moved to another team in the league.

 

Luton is a weird one, though may be that he feels he will get more game time with them to stand out in the Championship then if he went with a bigger Championship team.

Yeah you'd hope we compete there if we really wanted, right?! Maybe not!

 

Or we're after bigger n better?!?
