rubyruby Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 Quite fancy raith to do it plus it would be nice to see Mcglynn plying his trade in the SPL seeing as he learnt from the best,also a trip to kirkaldy instead of hamilton would suit me.

Denny Crane Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 He completely lost it at Bill Leckie after the game, before the post-match presser had even started! He was shouting things like 'you don't even know me' and 'you never have anything decent to say about me'. Total LULZ. Did the same to me three months into my own fledgling career. "Steven, you wrote in this month's edition of the club magazine tha......." and then KABOOM from the chest-thumper. Out of all the Hearts boys I've spoken to, all were great bar one individual.

Sierra Delta Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 It was a measure of the Falkirk gaffer?Steven Pressley's disappointment and the pressure that he is under that he opened his press conference with a seemingly unprovoked attack on The Sun's sportswriter, Bill Leckie:- "We don't get much with you about, that's for sure." Taken aback, Bill asked what he had done to be told:- "What have you not done? You don't have a good thing to say about me, not one good thing to say about me. Absolutely all the time, you don't even know me." Raising his voice even more, the Falkirk manager continued:- " You do not know me and you do not have a good thing to say about me. Make no mistake about that." Bill asked if he was going to be abused in front of people that he should be told what he had done. "Plenty, I am just telling you plenty. You have never got anything positive to say about me. Right anyway, lets go" Was it a bad day at the office? "No not a bad day, a bad result not a bad day, far from it. It was a really good performance; a game we absolutely dominated. We lost the game in two critical moments, that aside our performance was excellent. We passed the ball, we played with purpose, we created opportunities, we were on the front foot - all the things that we preach and work towards in training every single day was evident in our performance. "We created more opportunities than Dunfermline without doubt throughout the game. We dominated and they scored with their first opportunity in the game." Sounds like he's absolutely lost it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to defend Pressley on here, but **** it: it's clear as day how loathed he is within the game, and that he gets off on being a pantomime villain.

I don't see what there is to get too annoyed about regarding what Pressley does as Falkirk's manager. He's not the first manager to lose the plot with the press. Similarly, popularity won't be in his job description. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teuchterjambo Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 I was a tremendours admirer of Steven Pressley as a player for us, I even admired the qualities he seemed to have at that time as a leader and as a person. Even after the chest thumping I defended him, and could forgive a momentary lapse in an emotional and pressurised situation but............ Since then he seems to be engulfed in some kind of self centered arrogance tinged with a bit of paranoia and is looking a bigger prat with every passing week. He will find that the reputation he built when with us will not sustain him much longer and when the press pack finally round on him which is very close , his managerial career will go straight down the pan and he'll be all washed up. He is increasingly looking isolated and unless he learns a bit of humility pdq his career will be history and he will only have himself to blame. He thought he was the dogs bollocks without serving his apprenticeship - turns out an arrogant know all who nobody likes. Never thought I would see the day when I would relish his failure - shame on you Elvis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scott_jambo Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 I have personal experience of Pressley and the Falkirk coaching staff in between when he was brought in as a senior player and then slithered his way in front of prospective co-managers Jackie Mcnamara and Neil McCann in regards to taking on the Falkirk job after Eddie May parted company. (even though Neil McCann had done his apprenticeship in terms of doing all his badges and taking the Hearts reserve team for over a year). They were both promplty binned immediately after Pressley took the job. (McCann and Mcnamara were VERY popular with the playing staff and spent alot of extra time with the youths too). One of my closest friends at Edinburgh Airport told me of his disgusting behaviour towards the staff there - Therapist confirmed this story (although it probably gave it less credence). People should remember that when Hearts were in our darkest days, there wasn't just one narcisstic megalomaniac causing problems at Hearts - we had one on the playing staff as well. His name? Steven the slitherer - and everyone inside Scottish football (including the press) know it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grumpy rebus Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 I knew a couple of SPL players who had absolutely no time for him and said that a lot of other players felt the same. They said he was "all about him" and would shit on anybody to get on. At the time, I tried to defend him (he was still with us at that time), but now anytime I meet these guys, they take great pleasure in teking the pii out of me about it. It seems like he's not liked in many places. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the record, I hated Pressley the moment he gave it laldy at Tynecastle, by coincidence a few things I have seen and heard have made me decide he isn't a nice guy all the time. Snapping at Bill Leckie coincides with how he deals with people in general when under pressure, not just journalists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
