Robbie!!! ( merged )

I can't be the only person who is fed up watching Hearts under Robbie Neilson.

and I know we finished 3rd, ( in a shocking league) but we did it. 

And yes we are in Europe, 

Regardless of which 11 he plays, most weeks I think it's pretty dire, 

And no I don't hate the guy I just think he has been Manager for to long, we need fresh ideas

Corners and free kicks Kingsley aside, they are dreadful. 

I don't want an argument about it it's just my opinion, or maybe I'm just getting to old!! 

The league is pretty rubbish and with our budget 3rd should be expected, 

And really it's not about today just, for me he wouldn't have survived Brora, 

But I realise he has a 3 year contract so will just have to get on with it. 

And yes I have seen worse teams in my 55 years watching Hearts, 40 of which as a season ticket holder. .

It's just my opinion.

Bazzas right boot

It's an original opinion. 

 

Lots of new things to discuss and dissect.

Agree with you mate.

I think he has taken us as far as he is going too.

He over thinks everything on the park and is more worried about the opposition than what we do.

His recent record is not good reading and he's lucky he's not been shown the door.

Oh great. Another thread on Robbie Neilson.  Surely we can’t have a new one every time we lose a game? 57931DFC-9704-4E57-81E1-6517B7FAB5FA.gif.06d0ca29f0585fb061cad4769f3ad917.gif

 

No, we have about 4 then another couple in the build up to the game.

Correct.

Yes, you do.

Wrong, third place should be worked for.

Correct.

You're just a kid.

I'm bored of his post match shite, and his tall tales about players fitness.

Could we do better,manager wise,without a doubt,does he deserve this season....yup I think he does(and I didnt want him back to begin with).

 

No panic yet, we just need to keep in the mix.

These clowns go missing for some reason.

 

Whenever we win its down to Savage otherwise its Neilson's fault. 🤷‍♂️

Having a season ticket for 40 years should get you a shot at the managers job, until we lose, then onto the next deserving individual.

 

It's the future I tell you.

The worst that will happen is that at his next meeting with Ann he will get an asda smart price rich tea with his coffee instead of a tunnochs tea cake

His biggest problem is when we go behind. There’s no plan B, never has been.

Every game we lose we have to endure this. JKB is becoming a difficult read. When we win we are not world beaters when we lose weight don't become the worst team ever. Balance folks, we are a 2nd tier Scottish football team and likely always will be.

Absolutely and this is our second season since coming back up from the championship. 

 

Realistically speaking that's no time at all and we've already got 3rd, Europe and a cup final in our first season.

 

I'd say we are already spoiled. 

 

Onwards and upwards I hope.

Robbie is not perfect, the style of football at times is debatable. 

 

What isn't, is that he has the experience to get us 3rd again and has done so both times and hasn't finished below 3rd as Hearts manager. If he fails in that task this season, then perhaps there will be a discussion to be had around if he is the one to take us forward, however, I'm confident he will finish 3rd, Rangers or Celtic will win the Scottish cup, and we'll be guaranteed European football. Whats more,  apparently the European prize money isn't issued to the end of the season, therefore, we've not seen Neilson with money to spend yet and right now, we have a best of the rest quality team. Gordon is the best goalkeeper, Smith the best RB, Kingsley the best LB, Halkett and Rowles are a great pairing and once fit, our results will improve. Devlin and Kio are looking like a good pairing in midfield. McKay is in the Scotland squad, Forrest is scoring goals, Shankland is looking a good addition and Humphreys is showing some quality, especially today despite the result. 

 

I would like our attacks to be better drilled, we look a bit hesitant and seem to make the wrong decisions. I don't think enough of our forward players take responsibility and show enough leadership. We could really do with someone like Naisy or Stevo in our attack. We have Snodgrass, so hopefully he can pick up the slack on that front. 

 

Robbie will finish 3rd and achieve our aims this season. Entirely confident on that. It may be a bumpier ride than last season, but we will get there.

The issue today was the defence ( +Devlin) and not the manager. Looked shaky at the back. We are missing halkett and rowles. Kingsley seemed off it today

I read the OP and my first thought was @Bazzas right boot and @Frank Black will be along soon!!

I really did laugh out loud when I saw they were the first 2 who replied.

Well done to you both - manning the defences after today's game.

Well we keep hearing about the weegie budgets and how we can’t compete which is true although in a one off game I expect to have a go at them.

When we get a bad result anybody slagging him gets the "what about winning the championship,  finishing third etc. "  When we get a decent result we get the "told you so stuff" He's done OK but anyone that thinks he can take us any further than where we are is dreaming.

Yeap - sadly they were just better than us. It happens. Not a one off game either - today was a game in a number of games v the OF in the league….?

 

we 100% need to have our best 11 on the pitch v them lot to just have a fighting chance.

I agree, we are missing halkett and rowles big time to tighten up at the back, we are awful defending balls from wide areas.

Why do you think our budget should see us consistently finishing 3rd. It's not the 3rd highest budget.

I agree with you mate. It's no surprise the usual suspects are giving you grief. Smith's right boot, or whatever he calls himself now, was guaranteed to throw his tuppence worth in and right enough, second post after yours! Robbie can do no wrong in his eyes! 

 

I think Robbie's tactically limited. A better manager would have us doing better than we are now.

 

I wish we'd went for Steve Clarke when he was at killie. 

 

We'll never really improve and kick on under Robbie.

So, the OF can plug those gaps with equal quality players within their squad.
