Who was the last person at Tynecastle who had big plans (not including the ones in cardboard boxes) to make Hearts champions of Scotland? For a bonus point whatever happened to him?
5 years eh. He genuinely thinks he'll be there that long. Deluded windae licker.

Over the last six years or so they have sold van Dijk, Forster, Wanyama, Hooper, Sung-Yeung Ki, McGeady all for big money. An average of one big sale per season. It's been almost a year since the van Dijk sale. Can you see the next one? The point was that the big sales are are drying up and I don't see any other 10M+ players in their current squad.
I think you probably knew that was my point though, but well done for pointing out the errorLast edited by hibsmad; 29-04-2016 at 03:28 PM.

Also drying up will be the Foundation of Hearts debits to the football club.
I think from next season the payments will be gathered for the purchase of the Club from Mrs Budge.

Still makes me laugh that folk think Robbie Neilson calls the shots. He's the face of hearts but he's not the brains. He's also the dullest man on the planet but that's irrelevant just thought I'd add that.
Hearts are *****, I don't really care enough about them or the team, I worry about Hibs and that's enough for me.Last edited by Thecat23; 29-04-2016 at 04:19 PM.

I like to think (maybe hope) that they went through a bit of a purple patch with signings and that they have sold an above average amount of big money players over the past six years. Couple this with the fact that they are finding it more difficult to qualify for the Champions League and you have a club with, although bigger than the rest, a much reduced budget compared to recent years.
Remember that a lot of these players were sold for big money because they performed well in the Champions League. If Celtic aren't qualifying for it then the players can't prove to other clubs that they are up to that level. Which results in reduced transfer fees.

If you mean our magnificent Archibald Leitch designed main stand , then yes
I'll miss the old dear - my grandfather was in the enclosure there all the way through the 20s to the early 70s

If I'm being honest I don't give a flying F what that grade a yam roaster fud has to say.
In fact they can all go and do one, especially the bottle merchant Potter.

Ach, give them a season or two to settle down and they'll be back to their usual target - finishing 3rd !. I've never understood that years-old mantra of theirs 'We're Scotland's 3rd Club' - who the **** wants their to continually finish 3rd ??. Unless they mean the 3rd biggest religiously-bigoted support ??

How did Neilson / Levein's team get on today? I heard Griffiths scored yet another goal at Tynecastle today.
I wonder how many that must be for Griffiths at that particular ground?

Its ambitious but if you've just finished 3rd then surely you have to aim to better that.
Unfortunately for hearts, celtic will strengthen and I reckon so will the huns.

Really poor hoof ball team full of tall physical foreign players with little skill.
Celtic nothing special but comfortable in 2nd gear.
Season finished in Feb after yet another derby defeat.

"Famous (sic) Archibald Leitch Designed stand" has been a poncey byline in every fawning Budge interview to date, only for her to dump it when it becomes surplus to requirements.
How's it being paid for, by the way?

Potter needs a patsy to keep up the pretence to the SFA.
What I've been told anyway.

Looking at it now, it is anything but a magnificent example of Archibald Leitch architecture. The lower tiers have been become unrecognisable, half populated wastes of space incorporating laughable attempts at prime facilities.
Clubs all over the British Isles have managed to maintain the essence of their original building but it's as if you guys have desecrated yours. Maybe it's your desire to do things on the cheap or the instinct to act now and think about the consequences later that have resulted in this.
Either way it's been allowed to become an outdated, ugly mess and shouldn't be missed by anyone.
