Rivlin Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 Summing up; we've got an adequate defence (two of whom will be buggering off in all probability); half a midfield, no decent strikers. Added to that no depth of pool, maybe three youngsters with potential (Thomson has more than potential). the fact we're 5th in the league tells you everything about the SPL standard. Outlook? Totally ****ing depressing. Tell me why not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craigieboy Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 A SC run always keeps faint dreams alive in the 2nd half of the season. Not for the 1st time, that has gone early doors. It's disappointing. Good seasons come & go. You always got to stand by your team though. Good times will return. Maybe we will win the League Cup. You've got to keep the dreams alive. .

Rivlin Posted January 9, 2010 Author Share Posted January 9, 2010 You always got to stand by your team though. You've got to keep the dreams alive. . I've stood by them many long years through thick and thin and I'll carry on doing it. At the moment though there is little enjoyment to be had for doing it. As for dreams, it's more like a bloody nightmare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magicTs Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 Today was entirely predictable as soon as the rumoured team was posted on here yesterday. In short it was the poorest Hearts starting 11 i can remember in a hell of a long time. Our team of 4 years ago would take half a dozen of it without breaking sweat. Its difficult to see anything change whilst the cancer eating at the core of our club remains the owner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jambof3tornado Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 We have plenty of youngsters and are reducing the wage bill. A blend of youth and experienced spl journeymen will see us maintain top 6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamboinglasgow Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 We have plenty of youngsters and are reducing the wage bill. A blend of youth and experienced spl journeymen will see us maintain top 6. I agree, its leaders and experence we need. I think a spine of experience with youngsters filling around it, with the same mix of youth and experience on the bench. Say Hearts are 1 up in a game and the opposition are attacking hard near the end, some young players are looking nervous so you send in an influential older player to calm the nerves and direct them towards what they need to do. That is the kind of substitution that wins a young team games. They also need to be characters off the pitch so younger players can look up to them. Csaba sort of said he needed this but from his signings they were not brought in. Take today for example, as much as I really like Smith and Robinson, at the moment I would play only 1 of them next to Nade. Reason being is that Nade works best with these two. When he plays with Pom, he has the striker/AMC who can work the posistions people expect him to be while he drags defenders out wide, with Smith he holds the ball up well to bring wingers in for the ball to come in for a natural finisher to put it in the goal. To be honest, a team of Kello C Thomson Zal Jose Wallace Templeton Stewart Jonsson Driver Nade Robinson/Smith And with that you could J Thomson at Right back if you want a more experence, same with Johnny Stewart instead of Jonsson (if injured) or Visconte instead of Driver (as you have Wallace covering behind) or someone like Conrad beside Zal or Jose. Thats the way to build a strong young team. You need experence mixed with youth, but it almost seems a partnership At each place. The experenienced players need to help the youngsters and youngsters need to have a raw talent that shows why they are there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I face up to facts; you should give it a go. As I've never met you, please don't refer to me as "pal". "Followed" is a rather abstract term. For example, do you have a season ticket, did you do both 500 clubs, have you ever sponsored a player, did you go to Zagreb, etc etc? As for my intestines being "full of wind", if there is wind in there I strongly suspect there is much less than there is in yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure if I ever had met you I wouldn't use such a word. Followed is not an abstract word; it is an active verb. What does blowing about your season ticket, your 500 club, etc. add to the argument about the state of the Hearts team at the moment exactly? Not that it's any of your business I had a season ticket for many years. I gave it up last season because I couldn't afford it. I attend as many games as I can.

Its not just about losing today, its about the current state of our club. We are a complete mess from top to bottom and it wont change until the idiot called VR ***** off. I dont really rate Csaba as a manager or coach but I do feel a bit sorry for him as he is getting no help whatsoever from you know who. Our squad is pish to be honest and we are lucky that there are worse teams than us at the moment or we would really have to worry. We are going absolutely nowhere and have been since 2006, we have no direction and no focus and we will achieve the square root of ****** all under VR as he is a complete tool.

JamboPete Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 And apart from bankruptcy, the alternative to Mr Romanov is what exactly? TBH I really dont know, but I am so frustrated at what he has done to MY club. I am at the stage where I dont care wether we win lose or draw anymore. This season is the first season I can remember actually choosing NOT to attend a home game even though I have had a season ticket since the 97-98 season, simply because I am bored and frustrated of the way the club is being run. As I said I dont know what the alternative is but I think I would choose ANY scenario as long as it didnt include VR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
