The generic Hearts thread

[jacomo]

I was thinking that this will be a good watch.

If their form continues to the end of the season it will go down as being my favourite TV show ever.

Beating The Sopranos is some achievement!!


I loved The Sopranos too but I hope this one has a less ambiguous ending.

So in other news it looks like Stendel went back to Germany on Saturday night for Christmas and is returning to Edinburgh on Christmas Day. That’s dedication for you.

I'm really looking forward to the bit where the keystone cops play the FOH leaving the AGM when they heard about Levein playing the ghost of Christmas past every week.

Apparently it's gone towards a magnificent new stand, making a profit and ensuring that they have no debt.

Oh yes, and the reason they aren't making good decisions is because people are scared to speak up in the presence of the documentary crew.

Right now I need a 'wetting myself lauging' icon.

It's the trenches all over. The forelock tuggers are too scared to tell the senior officers that the tactics don't work.

In a sense, they are right, they have a partially completed stand, which has not increased their capacity. But, will generate massive revenue streams from the sale of chips, and Heineken zero, when it is finished

So, they are only 16 million down at the moment .

One or two have, to their credit, questioned why for c£5m they could not have built an equivalent to our £3m East Stand with scope to add an extension on the back later.

Anybody who falls for this nonsense about their shambles and lack of leadership and preparation for this game is deluded. The tales being published in the media and on social media might have an element of truth but JR and the players better believe that they will be ready to have the last laugh. A team so out of touch as them would not be bookies favourites if they were as bad as we are being led to believe. Anything less than 100% from us will hand the game to them.

[Jim44]

As I’ve said on another thread, let’s not fall to a sucker punch and believe all the nonsense being written about them. They’ll be up for this game and will expect nothing short of 3 points.

While I agree that they will be up for it as they always are, let’s not forget the players they have available for the game are very average on the whole. Even more so if Naismith doesn’t make it.

The players and fans psyche is extremely fragile at the moment, keep the game tight early on and the fans will start to get edgy, it won’t take long for them to flip.

Now it’s been confirmed that Stendel is away this week, the fans are getting ever more restless if Kickback is anything to go with.

Hibs win on Thursday and I really think Stendel is toast already with a section of their fans. Him popping home to see family could be his Robbie ‘money spinning replay’ Neilson moment.

They’ll have only had 2 days training without their manager in preparation compared to our 4 days with our manager. Let’s just hope it pays off for us however based on his record so far it might benefit them!

This is exactly what they will do for the first 15 mins as that's all they will have taken on board in the short spell with the new boss. The home crowd will be up for it also.

Then just like in the Celtic v Hearts match we will come into it and slice them open.

Key is we concentrate and defend very well to weather this

It might work in their favour, I think if I was a player I'd be delighted to get Christmas off.

With the Hearts fans justifying it - it has all the hallmarks of an alarm bell ringing that folk will look back on if/when things go breasts skywards for them and they'll acknowledge that it was the wrong thing to do.

I'd not be impressed if it was us in that situation. At times of crisis, you need leaders to lead.

There’s a bit of a difference between a quality side tactically adopting a high press and a side cut adrift at the bottom of the table at Christmas consisting of a mixture of cloggers and half hearted journeymen running about a bit.
We are far from a top side ourselves admittedly, but weighing up the task in hand I’m expecting nothing less than a win by at least a two goal margin.

From what I can gather from comments on KB, this game, by far, is the biggest of the season for them and it has nothing to do with relegation, which most of them are resigned to. In my opinion, the penny has dropped that they can not buy themselves from the foot of the league. They might have the desperation to beat us on Boxing Day but they don’t have the balls or character to climb the league.

Makes a big difference on practising shape and tactics. Especially as manager has been gone for a few days. Looking at video analysis of the opposition. Keeping your touch in tune. No athlete in the modern world would prepare for a major event the way Hearts have. Also a day with family instead of spending it focusing on the event does not prepare you mentally. Not saying we will win because of this but certainly improves our chances.

[Dashing Bob S]

Hearts players will try to make it a war as they know that’s the way to beat Hibs. This actually could cause deeper long term problems for Stendel as it’s not how he likes to play and could be very undermining to his authority and he’ll be aware of that.

How Ross will approach this is another matter. For Hibs it’s always damned if you do damned if you don’t on the football v violence dichotomy.

Agree however you just don't know what if any impact it will have as the game will take care of itself especially given the expererienced players they have (Berra Whelan et). In some ways it may be better they don't train xmas day and relax with families. It is very unusual though especially given we have a break coming up after the 29th though probably shows how desperate Budge was to get Daniel in. Assume today's session would be short and sharp anyway and as much to get mind on the game plus work on some set plays. The coach not being part of the sessions this week is the most unusual thing in he went home on Saturday and only returns today.

Calm down chaps, remember we are playing on a pitch that is like a bowl of porridge and much narrower that we are used to. They also have the usual height advantage and will win nearly every header with the ball dropping nicely for them so i would be happy with getting a draw from that dump.

Christophe Error 7/2 to be booked. Got to be worth a flutter, surely?

[lord bunberry]

I can’t wait for the game. Their manager has left the country, their star striker is apparently working from home, their sacked manager is in charge of recruiting new players and they’re adrift at the bottom of the league. It’s time to breeze in there and tear them a new one.

[Jim44]

It’s not really a surprise. Put it down to derby ‘anything can happen’ and their home advantage just swings it in their favour. If we come away with a draw, I’ll be satisfied. Remember that this is probably their most important game of the season. Some of the muppets feel that they can suffer relegation as long as they beat us.

Problem is, absolutely none of that is going to happen in the foreseeable. What they've sunk into the club since they escaped death, for the return they've got so far... Karma! Instead of stealing other peoples money, it's been coming out of their own pockets. They've been paying through the nose since Vlads famous 'Share Issue', only to see it s****ed away in spectacular fashion by a 'PHM Legend' and an Astute Business Guru.

I’ve no idea, but assuming that was tickets sold for Hibs it’s no wonder it’s such a struggle to secure Tynecastle tickets. Allocation seems to be getting reduced quite drastically.

Their stadium capacity is 19,852 as per the current safety certificate) and I’m sure the Roseburn holds 3400. So the attendance was 19,313 so add the 400 and your about at Capacity!

22 games without a Hibs victory. Imagine that! It was a horrible time to be a Hibee and was preceded by another period when we went something like 17 games without a victory. Apologies if the facts are not 100% correct as I've erased the mental scars and don't want to reopen them.

I think one of Hearts biggest dangers is thinking they just need to win a game to get that monkey off their back and think they’ve turned a corner.

They’ll win a game soon enough, it’s inevitable. That’s only one win though, they’ve got far bigger and deeper routed problems than just winning one game.

I said that to my lad yesterday. His point of view is that Hibs have the upper hand even though one of his early derbies was a certain cup final. He has missed a few in the last 8 or 9 years and he has probably got a winning record when watching the Derby. They don't know they are born the younger generation and it explains why I was still concerned yesterday until about 88 mins when he thought it was a schoosh

Valued at 2.5 Million and associated wages? No chance . Maybe on loan.

He can’t get a game for a team near the bottom of the English second division, he’ll no be that good.

Anyone in need of a laugh look at @hearysrant on twitter.

It Starts with

🧵 | As the year comes to a close, it’s time to look back on some of the utterly mindless things that have happened at Heart of Midlothian FC in 2019. Let’s go. 👇🏼

We built a Japanese website to meet the *massive demand* for Hearts house-coats in East Asia.

House-coats!!!!
Kimono your having a laugh!! 😂😂

In 2014 I’m sure we literally just had to win one game for a good few weeks and it just never came. Not a good place to be.

Also from 2014: Hamilton don’t just turn up for the appearance money.

[SHODAN]

The EEN pointed out today that they've used 26 different players at left back since 2014. On the JKB thread discussing this, many are saying that Adam Eckersley was the pick of the bunch. It's strange then that he never even got a game for us the short time he was at ER.

Just counted: in the same time period we've had eight, and I reckon one player makes up at least 90% of all appearances in that position.

[CMurdoch]

Apparently signing Liam Lindsay

This is wishful thinking on the part of JKB posters

Stendal has said Glenn Whelan has no leadership qualities and basically said he will look to move him on. Outstanding management.

[Borderhibbie76]

I said that to my lad yesterday. His point of view is that Hibs have the upper hand even though one of his early derbies was a certain cup final. He has missed a few in the last 8 or 9 years and he has probably got a winning record when watching the Derby. They don't know they are born the younger generation and it explains why I was still concerned yesterday until about 88 mins when he thought it was a schoosh

Yeah me too mate am still mentally scarred from the 80s and early 90s runs against them. I didnt breathe easy until the 90th min on Thurs. The youngsters these days dont know they are living

Not so sure. I started taking Ozyhibby jnr when he was almost 4 in 2010. His first 5 years watching Hibs was pretty traumatic with us losing two cup finals, skirting with relegation before eventually getting relegated and then staying down for far too long. By the time we won the cup in 2016 he was fairly battle hardened for a 9 year old and had earned his spurs.

He doesn’t turn up for training most days apparently, he’s basically part time, the problem with that is he’s on £8k a week. When you add in the fact that Naismith is working from home and also on a huge wage you can see why there’s a bit of disharmony in the dressing room.

Is that normal at a club?

Only huge massive ones.

[Bostonhibby]

Is that normal at a club?Lead from the top, the directors of football/sporting directors seem to float about between home and work and the manager who hadn't heard of them wasn't even in the country in the build up to their cup final so, yes, it's normal at one club.

[Barney McGrew]

They can’t - but let’s be honest, that’s never stopped them before.

So they now have an £8k a week 35 year old that has been sin die’d, a 33 year old crocked striker that works from home most of the week for similar money and a doughnut of a third choice manager who’s supposedly on £12k a week and hasn’t won in 14 games.

Nearly 30 grand a week for those three alone. THIRTY GRAND.

To put that in perspective, the ticket money for the whole Hibs end on Thursday wouldn’t have paid their three wages for three weeks.
I believe the phrase they use is ‘pleasing’:cb
