Dr. Bapswent Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 http://sport.scotsman.com/football/Jamie39s-one-for-Hearts39-future.4448007.jp Jamie's one for Hearts' future says Laszlo ADVERTISEMENT Published Date: 02 September 2008 By BARRY ANDERSON CSABA LASZLO stressed today that Jamie MacDonald still has a future at Hearts despite being discarded following his first-team debut against Rangers last month. The Hungarian considers MacDonald an integral part of his squad but admitted that a lack of experience prevents him becoming first-choice goalkeeper at the moment. He has effectively been relegated to third choice since deputising for Steve Banks in the 2-0 defeat at Ibrox. The 22-year-old is currently on Scotland Under-21 duty for the forthcoming European Championship qualifiers against Slovenia and Denmark and is certain to start both matches. However, at club level, he must challenge Janos Balogh to dislodge the Slovakian goalkeeper Marian Kello, who has looked comfortable in three first-team games for Hearts. MacDonald returned from a loan spell with Queen of the South intending to mount a serious first-team challenge this season, but Laszlo believes he will progress in time with more experience. "We have three good goalkeepers and Jamie MacDonald is part of the squad. He is one for the future," the manager told the Evening News. "We have Kello and Balogh also and they are making a good competition, but Jamie is young and I think to play in the first team at the moment you must have not only ability but also experience. "I was satisfied with Jamie against Rangers and I have also been pleased with Kello. He has not made a mistake and so he can stay in the team. "When I first came to this club we had only one goalkeeper and now we have three. I am pleased about this and I am pleased with Jamie's attitude. He can stay in the squad and get more experience." Asked if there was a possibility of MacDonald augmenting his experience with another loan spell, Laszlo replied: "He will stay at the club and challenge the other goalkeepers, I am happy to have three good goalkeepers in the squad." Two reserve players did leave on loan yesterday as transfer deadline day passed with relative tranquility at Tynecastle. Craig Sives joined First Division Queen of the South whilst John Armstrong departed for Third Division Cowdenbeath, both on six-month loans. Hearts had attempted to reinforce their striking options with moves for Derek Riordan and Alan Gow, but neither move came to fruition. Riordan made a return to Hibs while Gow opted to join Blackpool.

Can someone please tell him we had 3 and we now have 4. Unless I've missed the departure of Basso ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drylaw Hearts Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 Youv missed the departure of Basso When was that ? And where did he go ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rudolf's Mate Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 What gets me is that he is saying Jamie does not have enough experience. Surely the only way to get experience is to play games? By always having someone in front of him with more experience is going to mean that he is always on the bench! Really poor remark to make IMO. If he was good enough to play against der huns then he must be good enough to play full stop! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JamboRobbo Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 I'd question whether Kello's or Baloughs experience is any greater than Jamies so I don't agree with that part of what Csaba says. Jamie had just played 2 years at QOS, including getting to scottish cup final. Kello has been good so far. But so had Jamie MacDonald. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Bapswent Posted September 2, 2008 Author Share Posted September 2, 2008 When was that ? And where did he go ? Well, was he not on loan at Livi...and been told he can leave? Ok, so he might not have actually gone anywhere, but he is out of Csabas plans. Im assuming that qualifies him as gone for the purposes of the above article.

Dr. Bapswent Posted September 2, 2008 Author Share Posted September 2, 2008 So we still have 4 Goalies ? Not sure. His contract was up soon, so maybe he isnt actually around anymore. Its fair to say he may as well be gone, so might as well just count 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ericb Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 The goalkeeper situation confuses me, we must be paying a small fortune for the 'goalkeeping dept.' We are paying wages to Kello, Balogh, McDonald, Basso, Ridgers, the Swedish guy. And we're also paying Banks 1st team wages to train the kids, and now a new goalkeeping coach (but he's really just Vlads spy;)). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

busby1985 Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 Shabba IMO got to pick goal keppers up until he was given Kello now the choice is out his hands. Kello so far has been good but i still want Jamie mcdonald as i believe he is the best keeper we have and the one with the best chance of a big transfer!

I wonder if one day that, you'll say that, you care If you say you love me madly I'll gladly be there Like a puppet on a string Love is just like a merry-go-round With all the fun of the fair One day I'm feeling down on the ground Then I'm up in the air Are you leading me on Tomorrow will you be gone I wonder if one day that, you'll say that, you care If you say you love me madly I'll gladly be there Like a puppet on a string I may win on the round-a-bout Then I'll lose on the swings In or out there is never a doubt Just who's pulling the strings I'm all tied up in you But where's it leading me to I wonder if one day that, you'll say that, you care If you say you love me madly I'll gladly be there Like a puppet on a string I wonder if one day that, you'll say that, you care If you say you love me madly I'll gladly be there Like a puppet on a string Like a puppet on a string Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
