VincentGuerin Posted April 8, 2023 Share Posted April 8, 2023 5 minutes ago, Tony Wonder said: I agree I could see us churning something out, but equally if we lose which is not beyond us, the atmosphere could be horrific. If we lose next week, things get dreadful (they are already?), but I honestly still don't think we'd sack him. And there's no chance he resigns. Why would he? This is the best job he'll ever have. I'm not ITK when it comes to Hearts, and I've got no insight into behind the scenes. But this squad has gone from the bottle-tastic performances in the autumn which were really impressive in terms of resilience and dig, to just chucking the towel in. Something has happened, and maybe one day we'll find out. Nobody could say he didn't have the players onside earlier in the season. He clearly now does not. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that's the issue, you could argue we had a hard run etc, but that's Motherwell, Aberdeen, Killie and today that he's failed to spark any kind of response.

The screenshot above had us 7 ahead of Livi with them having a game in hand. I think that was as big as it got given we've only won twice since then. It was never nearly as done as the media or some of our fans were suggesting. We were 10 or 11 ahead of Aberdeen at one point though. We've had to be properly garbage to get to this point. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could still get 3rd IMO but not with Neilson. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they win and we don't, it's done. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HibsFan Posted April 9, 2023 Share Posted April 9, 2023 Levein’s protege meeting with a similar ending as Hearts manager. ZERO major trophies won. ZERO impact in Europe. Unfortunately the dodgy penalties and outrageous luck had to run out at some point. Bring on their third relegation in a decade, please! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
