GinRummy Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 1 minute ago, Hearts_fan said: Even if Souttar did say he'd rather start his new contract now, who in their right mind could argue with that, it's patently natural to want to start a new contract immediately, and made even more desirable when you're own supporters are booing you like children. Anyone who isn't aware the Hearts squad is comprised by professional sportsmen who are ALL here for money and the security of their contracts (perhaps bar Gordon) needs a reality check. This is not some medieval tribal village war, where the players are villagers prepared to die to protect their home. We're professional sport. Hearts players are working for Hearts because Hearts gave them the best offer available to them. Now, Souttar has grown to be such a good player that we can no longer afford him. A lot of folk need to change their nappies over this. A lot of grown men in our support need to look down and see they are actually basically still wearing a nappy and they don't even realise it. No they don’t mate. You’re over complicating everything. A Hearts player mid way through a season has signed for one of our bitter rivals. Fans are pissed off and the player is left taking grief that he himself must have known he’d get. Your main argument revolves around the fact that John Souttar has done what he thinks is best for John Souttar. Everyone already knows this. It’s not debatable.

It’s odd on here but very strange in the ground. I’m sure we’ve all sat near someone at some point who has just decided to single out a player and give him both barrels for no real reason. I wasn't at the match last night watched it in the house, But in my 30 years of supporting Hearts and going to the match I have never Booed a player in Maroon I never have and never will I also wouldn't of clapped Souttar last night either ( the folk clapping him were doing it to noise out the boos it was understandable ) I would of sat and focused on the match what I paid to watch and take no notice of it. It's the same with the Griffiths coming with Dundee I have paid my money to watch Hearts not Leigh Griffiths. ( You pay you're money to boo the guy and sing he's a peado 😂) But you're right I have has season tickets in past and sat beside some weapons giving Hearts players dog's abuse! They are stuck within their ways when the player over comes the poor run they have been on and start putting better performances in they cannot accept it and are just itching for them to make a mistake to get on their backs again.

In the first couple of minutes Souttar tried passing out or clearing it and it was a poor clearance, It could of lead to St Johnstone scoring. As soon as he tried to clear it the booing started. Imagine he made the mistake and they went and scored. It's just daft. Imagine he scored would the fans not celebrate the goal because Souttar scored or Celebrate the goal and Wilson reads his name over the speakers then its met with a boo.

I can think of lots of examples, off the top if my head when the Hearts team who had played terribly in Zagreb just trotted off the park without acknowledging the travelling fans, all 11 were roundly booed. Lazlo was left to come over and take the brunt. Nade was booed in the semi final at Fir Park against St Mirren because he moved about 20 yards the whole time he was on the pitch. More recently Perriera was rightly booed and ridiculed when it was clear he was incapable of doing the very basic role of a GK. If it’s merited I don’t care if they are in maroon or not, they will be told.

The Laryea Kingston was similar but not quite the same. He did come out after it mind and say he thought the fans were right to get on his back. Granted that was a player/manger problem !

I don’t want to see Neilson drop him from the squad - that would just show that he is giving in to the boo boys and a weak manager. He did the right thing not subbing him last night. That's not what it's about at all. It's about who blinks first between us and Rangers. Neilson has said he's a vital first team player, he plays. I'd also expect a phonecall between Hearts and Rangers on Friday to say if you don't want him cup tied, pay up. If he's still a Hearts player on the 1st of Feb, Neilson's stance might change.

He did ok but let’s not pretend the elephant in the room didn’t exist on the park. Never booed him but never clapped him either. He’s treading water at our great club. That’s just a fact. The question for me is, If he had to go in for a 60/40 in the 6 yard box to prevent Hibs scoring, would he put his body on the line. I’m not convinced he would. That’s the litmus test. Didn't boo or applaud him during the game he's a distraction, to be fair he had a solid game. Will the celtic fans boo him next week? Will the Hearts fans continue to boo him? If still here will Nielson play him against the blue vermin? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Rabbit Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 Personally feel Souttar merited the stick at the start of the game for how he handled the situation but the boos did get pretty tiresome pretty fast. The clapping after the boos just made the whole thing extremely cringey. I get some are trying to support the team but clapping a player who has shown no thought for the club or the fans is just bizarre. Hopefully he is sold this window and we have a replacement lined up.

But Smith could easily slot into Souttar's position for the rest of the season (he has had some excellent performances at CB in the past). Or possibly even Moore. We have Atkinson now as well who can play in Smith's position. Souttar is a loss but replaceable already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neilson has said he's a vital first team player, he plays. I'd also expect a phonecall between Hearts and Rangers on Friday to say if you don't want him cup tied, pay up. If he's still a Hearts player on the 1st of Feb, Neilson's stance might change. You're right mate. It's posturing. Souttar won't kick another ball for Hearts after February the 1st, regardless of where he is at that point. And I seriously don't believe for a second he won't be gone by then.

GinRummy Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 I left a job once and nobody booed. It wasn’t a job that had thousands of spectators watching me every week who have pumped millions into the club but nobody booed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hilary Briss Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 Got to give Souttar credit - as he played well last night, despite getting noised up Still think hes a tosser for signing a pre contract with them and dont blame folk for venting last night. Even if he signed an extension with us and signed for them in summer and got us a few quid - I could have lived with. Think thats least we deserved. Best thing that could happen is him going to Huns asap - and hopefully that happens after last night. Smith could move to middle and Atkinson could go to RB or even Moore could come in......we defo have cover and the longer he is here getting that reception its bound to have negative impact on team.

Good post. As you say, JS now knows that the fans are disappointed in his decision (if he wasn't aware before the ko last night). There should be no more booing ....... ........until he returns in a blue jersey and engages in some chest-thumping, badge-kissing and ironic ear-cupping.

Probably couldn't hear yourself think for the wall of booing ..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that really is embarrassing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
