PauloSergioBentoBrito Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 Pressley GTF. We've changed manager, who cares!? We have a good squad, we're still at Tynie, Vlad puts a lot of money into hearts, we have a europa league game on thurs. And most importantly. We walk all over hibs, and will continue to do so.

Tyrion Lannister Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 He really is a boring and self-righteous knob. If he wasn't so quick to criticise others, maybe it would finally hit him that nobody likes him and that the majority of people who have ever had the misfortune to come across him; think he's a self-obsessed, arrogant tosser. I doubt it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amadjambo Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 Ok Dazo, but that has happened to many many ex players during a game such as McCann and Hartley. Both are still well respected and both are considered legends by vast majority of fans. See, while they play against us it is their job to try and beat us, and I hate Hearts getting beat. Neither of those 2 ever showed great joy when they did and never tried to rub our noses in it either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for that slithering judas, I couldnt give a toss what he hisses, a complete irrelevance. As already pointed ouy by some, the difference in class between him and JJ is massive. Would any other manager comment on another teams internal works NO, and thats down to proffesional respect something that belly slider will never have.

Le Chat Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 To be honest, I couldn't give a toss what Steven Prhessley thinks about the situation. What does irritate me is why he is continually asked for quotes regarding a team that has absolutely feck all to do with him. And I think we all know the real reason for that.

southside1874 Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 How apt the guy ended up at the bairns. He needs to grow up. I'm not even going to read the article because you know its the same old nonsense. JJ was asked to move on up the ladder because Hearts couldn't afford to carry on in the same vain as we finished last season. There is a chance we could have been battling relegation if we carried on. 1 win out of 14 games is not great statistics for any team let alone Hearts. Okay we have an eccentric owner.

Guest Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 Listen we all know what Pressley was like and that was someone who gave his all when he played for Hearts and after Burleys sacking most people thought that the press interview was the right thing to do at the time but he mucked up big time when he came back and i lost all respect for him but that rat Strachan stirred the pot by making him captain as well.

Buffalo Bill Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 All Pressley achieved with the hijacking of a press conference was to cause more upheaval, which led to him securing a cushy move to Celtic with his old Coventry chum, Strachan - which in turn led to his infamous chest-thumping celebrations, a real 'up yours' in front of thousands of Hearts fans. I still wonder whether Strap-on had a quiet word with Stephen in the build up to all of this. Pressley's job was to play football and captain the team. He had the responsibility to ensure unity existed within the club. How did that press conference help? What part of announcing that 'there is significant unrest within the dressing room' helped me, helped you, helped the club at that time? What exactly was said in his message that his supporters find so venerable? Pressley spat the dummy out at Riccarton, nothing more. I always felt sorry for the mortified Craig Gordon, who was probably emotionally blackmailed into attending. As we've since learned of course, it wasn't the 'message' Pressley sought, but the stage.

We_are_the_Hearts Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 Pressley still has a grudge, he cares about himself not Hearts. Levein is being clever here.

Get over it FFS. Now who's slavering?! Relegation material?! Have a stern word wi yourself! JJ's removal and offer of the DIF role at Hearts was as political a move as it was tactical! VR marked his card a long time ago at the end of the season and with his comments on th CT scandal. Our last cup winning captain at the centre of the clubs biggest ever sacking case/scandal is perfectly entitled to voice an opinion. In fact I'd argue as a modern day Hearts legend ( yes haters ) I'd argue his opinion is more valid than most! You don't have to agree... But the hate/snake repertoire constantly banded about is juvenile... but the it is the school hols. All managers out there will have nothing but praise for JJ but they also know the score.

WeeToonJambo Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 Hero. The fist pump wouldn't have happened had we the supporters not backed "the riccarton 3". I think you should re-read this post. You're arguing that the fist pump wouldn't have happened if we didn't support them. Anyway it's all water under the bridge and Pressley, who I admired as a Hearts player, is long gone and his opinions are of no relevance to our club.
