trotter Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 I know there is multiple threads on this, but I think it's warranted to start another. I'm not going to say Skacel because that's a given on anyone's list. But Cammy. He's immersed himself right into it. Dragged halfway across the world and it looks like he's been here his entire life. Who else have you got? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OTT Posted April 23, 2023 Share Posted April 23, 2023 Cool thread idea, here's my 11 of players I remember that I felt really 'got' the club (Robbo and the 90s I don't remember very well as too young) Gordon McGowan Zaliukas B.McKay Grainger Black Devlin Stevenson Hartley Skacel S.Elliott Not meant to be the best team in the world (although I kind of like it), really struggled with CBs, Zal an obvious one but Pressley and Webster both left under a bit of a cloud, Albeit Webster came back as a cup winner. Ended up going with Brad McKay as he's a big jambo and gave his all when in the jersey which is all we can ask for really. I think older folk are probably more able to include guys like Naysmith, Levein, Jardine, Cameron, Locke etc. I know Stevenson also left under a cloud, but it wasn't to engineer a move West, he wasn't getting paid and had his family to take care of. Hard to grudge that, plus his commitment following his return gave us hope in the Locke season that we might have stayed up. Also, helped drag Hibs down with us Went with Stephen Elliott because despite not being a prolific goal scorer, he never stopped running for his teammates and a bit similar to Devlin and Stevenson, that sort of work rate and attitude is first class. An interesting one would be players that you don't feel ever quite got it - Danny Wilson for example, despite captaining the club, I don't think he ever really got invested in the club or what its about. Always felt like he was looking for his next move and to not even give the season following promotion a shot with us so he could go West to play in the Championship again despite having his whole career in front of him was hugely disappointing. Plenty of honourable mentions too - Eckersely, Paterson, Kevin Kyle, Naismith, Jamie MacDonald Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I know some like to portray him as a hate figure, but he didn’t just ‘get’ the club, he embodied it. The media used to call him ‘Mr Hearts’. I think we need to accept that the Romanov era was a chaotic period for the club, and we should give senior players who were caught in the middle of it a break.
