Drew Busby ! Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 This ongoing farce is the latter day equivalent of the Monthy Python "Cheese shop" sketch, Manager: Got any left backs ? Vlad: Fresh out of left backs I'm afraid. Last one just went. Manager: Centre-halfs ? You must have some centre halfs ! Vlad: Sorry, he's spoken for. Well maybe. Ask me again next week. Manager: Strikers. 15-20 goals per season type strikers. Any of them ? Vlad: Yes. Well that is I mean no. They're gone. All out of them. Sorry. If you'd only asked last season. Manager: Well I wasn't here last flippin' season was I ? Anyway. A right back ? Got one of them I suppose ? Vlad: Well not in so many words. Not what you'd call a right back exactly. Manager: I was under the impression that this was a football club. Vlad: Finest in Scotland sir. etc etc http://www.phespirit.info/montypython/cheese_shop.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tolcross lad Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 no mention on clyde website thought they do cover news that JOHN Holloway is in line for Tynecastle hotseat. hopeless f...ers. suspect this is from the oft-visited media file labelled 'likely to happen one day so lets just trot it on waht is otherwise a quiet news day and cause there's no other obvious news to report, its not like anyone amongst our local mafia will have a go at us for de-stabilising one of the provincial clubs'. I am more paranoid than you.This is a wee comeback at Vlad following his recent efforts about the OF - a kind of "And dont you forget who are the big boys chum". There will be no direct route for Wallace to go to Celtic given Vlads views and recent events. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tynie Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 Don't really think Lee Wallace is that good to be honest... not a big miss IMO! It is amazing how these people we sell on all of a sudden become very talented when at another club. It wouldnt hopefully reflect on some clown at Heart,s judgement would it. Or perhaps we are clearing the way for some more dross from Vlads stable. I notice how much of them has been sold on as after all everyone is after the talented, eastern block no names.

Paisley Jambo Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 Don't really pay much attention to the RC station.

jamboron Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 I'd be pretty happy if he left and we got Riorden or Killen. He's a terrible defender and does not contribute enough to be a midfielder. If they really want him, they would have to make the deal sweet enough so we could get a decent player in return. I`d certainly like to see the big man at Tynecastle, as we are very short of forwards at the moment. Also like Hearts to bleed them for a few ????`s as well .

hate_hibs Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 If wallace left he would go to rangers rather than celtic, but to be honest cant see him leavin. I think he is a decent player and worth keepin if he picks his game up a bit.. I dont think there any chance Riorden ever signin for hearts. He's a die hard hibby and hates hearts, so cant see it hapnin.. I think he'd be a good signin tho. He can score goals and thats some thing we need..

We probably wouldnt entertain making these decisions but being as Romanov is the only one at Hearts who does make decisions, you can understand why they are now being made.The oly drawback with that exercise is if the decisions turn out wrong its the managers fault and he will be offski.

Guest JamboRobbo Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 If everyone ignores everyone whose opinion they have a problem with there isn't much point having a forum is there? I'd argue there would be plenty point. We'd have a forum for civilised debate, where differing opinions are treated with respect. You can't seriously be saying your right to express your opinion is threatened or fettered in some way. No, cause I'll say what I think no matter what. But rightly or wrongly I think anyone would want to defend themselves from the sort of comments made in my direction on this thread. The opinion I gave was not all that controversial. And it's no fun for me to be defending myself from attacks all the time, and it clutters up the threads for everyone else. Seems a simple solution for those who think I'm a broken record etc and can't help themselves from having a go. Stick me on ignore. Then I don't have to spend all day defending myself from stupid digs and nobody else has to trawl through it to get to the real debate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
