Enigma 3,472 Report post Posted August 26, 2019 I think if MC takes over Ray will be the least of our worries Ray should be able to take you over the line once Campbell has made his multi million pound investment into the squad, no? 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He sees success in terms of unbeaten runs. Seriously, if this guy managed a side that drew all 36 league games, and got relegated with 36 points, he would consider that as a success. Somebody needs to explain to him that losing W12 D1 L23 is better than his “unbeaten runs” patter. As someone mentioned above, he is not a winner, and he does not seem to demand that his teams are winners either. We are going to Airdrie for a point. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheScarf 9,405 Report post Posted August 26, 2019 (edited) Gary Locke's is brilliant - https://uk.linkedin.com/in/gary-locke-47a7443a Edit - Scroll down and read the Hearts 13-14 season bit. Looks like he thinks goals scored are better than points won (see the ICT mention). Edited August 26, 2019 by TheScarf 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rjc-1988 610 Report post Posted August 26, 2019 The big issue yesterday (and what I suspect will be the case this season) is a severe lack of width.Doyle seems like a character and a decent defender, but relying solely on him and Dixon (my god) to provide your crosses/attacks isn’t going to win you the league.Most teams will sit in, keep the middle of the pitch compact which will make it difficult for Tidser and Telfer to play balls through the middle. High floated crosses from 30 yards out by Dixon are not only terrible but it doesn’t suit the strikers we have either.A reality check for those who’d thought we would win the league at a canter, can see many away games being like that this season. It’s up to us to pass it quicker, use the full width of the park, and provide proper chances for our strikers.Mikey Doyle is real 100% guy with a great attitude BUT his ability doesn’t really match his enthusiasm and when he plays RB he bombs forward at every opportunity but is the last person you want delivering the vital cross. Most QOS fans were disappointed to lose him but for me he is better at centre back where he has a defensive job to do with no attacking distractions. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
