Just noticed that after yesterday's game Daly put the boot into the Hearts players' lack of fitness under Cathro. Whether that's him just trying to prove he's got the tough guy mentality to get the job full time or whether he's letting slip how little respect Cathro commanded, it made me wonder why there's been not a peep out of Cathro since his sacking.
Do Hearts still impose those Romanov-era gagging orders as part of their pay-off settlements?

Most managers who part company with their teams sign disclaimers for various reasons. One is to protect themselves other is the club. Bad mouthing a former club can be damaging to your career further down the line.
Most get the pay off and go on their way. But I am surprised he's completely vanished though. Never wished them well unusual for a coach to pie off the players completely but then again it's them.

I heard that the training completely lacked any intensity and therefore they got into games and were lost when the opposition actually competed. Tallies that it wouldn't be the greatest for fitness.
Cathro obviously has some good ideas with Box Soccer for example. But seems strange that he's worked with Benitez etc but still struggled with the basics of the UK game i.e. win your battles first then play football

their mental fitness must be astounding :)
Whats there for Cathro to say that wouldn't get lost in the cross-fire?
Better doing a period of self-reflection - he was the Dalry Lama after all... can also then keep his powder dry and respond to his critics in one fell swoop rather than Dribs and drabs."We know the people who have invested so far are simple fans." Vladimir Romanov - Scotsman 10th December 2012

"From my point of view the fitness levels are off where I would personally like them to be".
As you say, did he raise this with Cathro at the time? Even though he was part of Cathro's coaching team, he'd been at the club a year longer so maybe they simply didn't gel at all.

Berra 5 mins in the door and seemingly running the show. He played in all these early season games, looks like he's not taking responsibility for it though!

Daly will say anything to land that job. The fact he's saying it now rather than doing something about it at the time, as he was part of that previous managerial regime, shows how desperate he is.

Daly is a mercenary, took Sevco's money to play in the lower leagues, rather than try to better himself
Says it all about him really

To be fair he never blamed cathro he blamed short pre season. He is trying t come the hard case though that is clear. I'll be honest of the list of 5 I think he's probably best of the bunch that shortlist is pitiful

Story I heard was that Daly had the under 20s running up n down Arthur's Seat while The Dalry Llama had the first team practising triangles. Daly asked Potter "when are the first team going to do pre season fitness training" and Potter went ballistic when he checked it out and realised they were miles behind. 2 weeks later Daly was Caretaker.
