Snodgrass

Many will disagree but this all comes down to the wrong mentality, culture and lack of accountability right from the top. It’s far from the only reason but it’s definitely amongst them and means we are so often found wanting when it matters. You need people in the dressing room who demand better, demand more. If some of the players can’t take that then find guys who can! By the way the new Technical Director was one of those types so I’m hoping he will find players with the correct character traits. 

 

 

I do actually agree with this, but those demanding more need to be leading by example. Any old hod carrier can go in and demand stuff, leaders need to demonstrate it. A decrepit Snodgrass, and management team with barely an entire brain amongst them were not those people. Naisy at least had a professional playing career at the top level and can speak with experience of what that takes.

[Bad Religion]

Absolute charlatans.

 

3 year deals 

[No Idle Talk]

That is a pretty pathetic comment from Lee McCulloch. Zero responsibility being taken for the dressing room falling apart. Sorry Lee, but it happened on your watch.

There are some that think Neilson will be back for a third term.

I am fairly certain no-one at the club, now or in the future, would be stupid enough to bring him back. Even for half-time - he would get chased out of Tynie.

You get the persistence of those who say he was 1st, 3rd, left in 2nd blah blah blah. Bottom line is he had an opportunity to begin to create a gap from the pack and he showed that he wasn't capable. That absence of capability includes having a moron like McCulloch as his assistant. Neilson just didn't have the skillset and that was exemplified in the abject failure that he overseen this season. 

 

All the shite that gets peddled in his defence about next level stuff is best ignored. He had everything in his favour to start to create a gap from the pack and he failed spectacularly. A missed opportunity for the club through having the wrong incumbent in the job.

Will be interesting to see what the Robbie fan club have to say.  Sounds like a complete sh1tshow.

Certainly does. Also calls into question what the Sporting Director was doing and whether he was aware, as he should've been, and whether he alerted the Board to the shitshow that was unfolding under Bob.

I hope Savage knew what was going on reported it to the Board.  If he didn't he needs to give himself a shake.

 

If he did they (the Board) weren't listening or decided to take no action, if the rumours are true that it was Savage and the FOH reps that wanted Neilson out.  The other Board members wanted to keep him.  Astonishing if true.

Was McCulloch sweating during the interview? 

 

Whatever the details are Snodgrass clearly didn't work out on or off the pitch, these signings rarely do. 

 

Craig Gordon is a notable exception, old pro living on past glory is not somewhere I want us to ever go again

McCulloch, bigger club The Rangers who we left in the championship. Remember his attempted clearance at Tynecastle😄

 

Always kept my mouth shut about the hun fud when he was coaching - but I never liked him as a player or coach, he should have been nowhere near Hearts.

 

His pathetic response to what was going on just confirms my thoughts as WTF he was there in the first place.

You can have an opinion of whether he did good or not, doesn't mean he should be unwelcome at Tynecastle. Absolute bullshit patter. He won the cup and has done nothing to make him unwelcome.

If it’s you and your fat mates then the comment is irrelevant and folk should put you on ignore.

Asked if Snodgrass was too vocal about Hearts' troubles at that time and as such, the rest of the players didn't like it, McCulloch replied: "I don't know about that because that would have been in the dressing room.

[Jambo On Fire]

I'm certain that Robbie previously stated that neither he or his coaching team went into the dressing room as "that was the players' space". I remember being surprised at that as I thought part of the management team's role would be to ensure squad harmony. To do that, surely they need to see what's going on for themselves.

 

Perhaps this approach worked to a degree with the group of senior pros we had at the start of the season (e.g. Gordon, Kingsley, Halliday, Smith) but a big character like Snodgrass coming in has upset the applecart.

Yes . He was a pretty decent winger / striker at the time . Jefferies wanted him . We signed Twaddle from them instead a season or two later under Levein , I think
