shaun.lawson Posted December 26, 2009 Share Posted December 26, 2009 didn't have such a smug look on his coupon when Ally Mauchlen stamped on his throat :santa1: I take it that was attempt at a wind up Nope. I liked him. I certainly wasn't the only one either. Darren Jackson's one of those players who you loathe when he's playing for the opposition, but many had a different view of when he played for us. And whether or not he was a Jambo as a kid, I think it's obvious he now holds us in highest regard, despite his time with Hibs and Celtic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shaun.lawson Posted December 26, 2009 Share Posted December 26, 2009 I will support anyone who wears the Hearts jersey with pride and commitment and wont slag of any Hearts player, but he was so hard to like and support but I managed, but in my top 10? Not even in my top 50. Oh, I totally accept it's a very controversial point of view. I just had a lot of time for him, and a lot of empathy for the Hearts side he played in. Which often under-performed, not because it was lazy as many thought, but because its confidence was so fragile. It seemed for all the world to me that when Jackson played well, we played well; and when he didn't, we didn't. At his best for us, he was tremendous, and a hugely important influence: remarkable given his background as a hate figure among our support.

Radioactive Mince Posted December 28, 2009 Share Posted December 28, 2009 Became a Jambo in 1991; first game in 1994. 1993 for me. Same players as Shaun, although I'd substitute one ex-HIV for another; Jackson for Hartley. Jackson had his place in HMFC history and, to be fair, I can see where you're coming from, Lawson. A truly inspired signing who almost single-handedly kept us up the season he signed. EDIT: Now that I think about it again, I'd drop Flogel for Mark de Vries.

We were quite lucky at the start of our Hearts-supporting lives that we had a lot of players who played for the jersey and we were relatively successful. I must have a thing for keepers as well with Rousset, Niemi and Gordon in there. The shelf-life of players nowadays is so short it's a miracle kids have any favourites now. Presumably it's gonna have to be young guys like Wallace, Driver, Thomson or Eggert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Presumably it's gonna have to be young guys like Wallace, Driver, Thomson or Eggert. At the time, Rousset was a hero of mine. It's only retrospectively - and probably because I was spoiled by Gordon and especially Niemi - that I looked back and realised how many mistakes he made at times. Still a very good player for the club, and played a massive role on that beautiful day in May, which represented personal redemption too of course. But for me, he's probably more a cult hero than a legend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't pick them as a quasi team selection - these were only players who I reckoned were amongst the best i'd seen in over fifty years supporting the club. Yes Levein and Wardhaugh are up there as well alongside players like Davie Holt, Johnny Hamilton, Alec Young, Donald Ford and maybe even Rudi and Paul Hartley. As for the three keepers - all of them were great players for us in their particular time at the club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That,s how I viewed it also and I accept its all a bit subjective.You could make a case for all the players mentioned. What I would say is that from our era Dave Mackay would figure in everyone,s list. He is certainly my favourite all time Hearts player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
