Rick Sanchez Posted December 15, 2023 Share Posted December 15, 2023 I don't think Naismith could rock up at Kilmarnock or St Mirren and do as good a job as McInnes or Robinson. But I also don't think they could hire Joe Savage and have recruitment good enough to do what they're doing currently. Savage is just as much a problem as our coaching, IMO.

Skippy Doodle Posted December 15, 2023 Share Posted December 15, 2023 1 hour ago, This is My Story Podcast said: @Skippy Doodle you are bang on. The two major concerns for everyone right now should be the manager, it’s all got very petty by the looks of it. Naismith clearly not happy at Budge and Co saying they aren’t happy with the style. And the other worry is the long term aspirations of the FoH. I am meeting the FoH next week so hopefully have some stuff I can feedback on here. I do agree with @No Idle Talk on getting some actual detail around how Anderson’s money is spent. Am not sure I like the idea of us just casually writing off the sums of money he invests. I’d like to know its value and how it’s being used. Yeah I try not to get too critical of the FOH as they are full of decent people giving up their free time but I would have expected us to have full time employees working for them by this stage and their target of nearly doubling pledgers in a years time is a wild target I have also naively it would seem believed that Anderson was a philanthropist who was donating money to the club. He does seem to have a level of influence in decisions being made on and off the park if he wants to play football owner then be transparent about it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobbofordGHC Posted December 16, 2023 Share Posted December 16, 2023 Chuffed to bits for Naismith today after the abuse he took on some of these podcasts last week, particularly Perth to Paisley where some of the personal stuff was shocking from Hearts fans. Hopefully they can get behind the manager and team going forward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like SATF, Broken Hearts and This is my Story. Joel Sked's new Hearts Standard is shaping up. All very different but all worthwhile.

Sooks Posted January 9 Author Share Posted January 9 Enjoyed the latest This is my Story pod as well , but it was a little bit too long after the derby result and had to cover a fair few games . Always good to get these on the speaker quite soon after results like that as they add a nice soundtrack to the gloating and celebrating Shame these guys have the audacity to have personal lives . Not really good enough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunder and Lightning Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 Just a quick note to the This is My Story guys. At the end of a recent podcast you highlighted that people struggling with life in general should feel free to get in touch. I just wanted to say that was a classy thing to do. Men all to often keep things bottled up and it leads to dark places. Well done on reaching out an making the offer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sooks Posted January 10 Author Share Posted January 10 (edited) Can we discuss “ The Hearts Review “ ? Where are they ? They spunked out regular pods when we were not doing well , and just about managed a couple when we were on our third game of our four in a row ………. **** all since then . Can anyone actually confirm that “ Matty “ “ Gordon Snr “ and “ Jamie “ are actually Hearts supporters ?

Sooks Posted January 10 Author Share Posted January 10 I particularly liked when that wee daft boy said that Shanks sees his future elsewhere , and said that he carried us for two seasons . Wanting Lowry on a permanent deal ………… This is an utterly ganting podcast , and the fact they can not even bother to cast when things are going well , that says it all Are “ Spencer “ “ Jamie “ ( definitely posts on here ) , “ Something JR “ and all the rest of these seriously stupid contributors still kicking around ?

busbyfth Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 Dont forget - this time last year we were third but knew what was going to happen due to winning games when only deserving draws at best - we knew that luck turns sooner or later and we hadn't been playing that well though getting results. Question - Is that the same as this term, or are we being positive that with the decent squad we have then the games in which we really play to our optimum are just around the corner and we can improve (we still need to !) ?

main Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 Love the Hearts Review, a bit negative and a moany bunch but can confirm all PHM. Average of 500 listeners across all platforms which isn’t bad for a Hearts podcast, where the market is already saturated. Like some others also, scarves around the funnel is a decent listen but it feels like club approved propaganda. This was particularly bad during Neilson’s second spell when it sounded like a radio broadcast straight out of the USSR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is My Story Podcast Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 It’s a tough gig trying not to be negative, especially when you record in the aftermath of bad results or performances. Same with trying not to get too carried away after good spells. We as a podcast are guilty of both, frequently haha. There are loads of great options out there for Hearts fans in this space. Happy clappers, moaners, bed wetters, middle of the roaders. Hearts Standard have been a good addition to the space. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One works for the club and the other is connected to the club via professional and personal relationships. I think both do a good job at balancing things out.
