So true, you could say Stendal saving his wage paid the compo...comedy really.

Let's welcome him back with open arms. It was his team and tactics that bottled it that day at Tynie on our way to Scottish Cup glory. 👌
Yup.
Madness.
They didn’t even announce Stendal wasn’t returning !
So somehow Neilson was approached today and spoke with his family and decided within a few hours this is the right move.
Stendal was clever to go without wages as makes him look the good guy for getting them relegated but he’s been shafted at the end of it and can’t imagine he will be happy with how they have acted. All that pressing and change of style for nothing.
They could have got Neilson months ago when Utd won the league and they probably wouldn’t be in this mess.
Nothing to suggest Stendl wasn't begging to go. Doubt they paid anything.
Hearts - always trying the be the big team
Two complete sets of changing rooms
Two QCs
Two wins for Danny Boy
Two Managers
I'm going out at 9pm tomorrow night to applaud Ann Budge. She deserves it. Made the last 12 weeks quite entertaining during lockdown.
I take it that any attempt to be reinstated to the Premiership is now officially dead, then?
Surely if they succeeded with that, then Stendal's contract would still be valid, so they'll have two Head Coaches on the books. Though, TBF, that's one less than than they had last season.
Also, if they're so skint, threatening to bin players if they don't take wage cuts, then where's the (presumably large) compensation for Dundee United coming from?
I presume these questions will all be raised by our esteemed SMSM.
14% win ratio for Daniel in the league. 29% if you include cup games. This is the guy who was going to revolutionise Scottish football. :greengrin
Was Robbie the manager when they got pumped out Europe by the Maltese farmers?
Quite a shocking turn of events but it was always on the cards that Stendel was never to return.
Feel more sorry for him than I did for P.Higginbottom ( zero sympathy for him mind )
Did Budge not say last week she wanted a sporting director first?
Yeah and then he claimed post match that it wasn’t a big deal because it would have been expensive for the club to travel to Russia for their tie in the next round. I’m not sure his comments were much comfort for the Hearts fans who had already booked flights, visas and accommodation though.
Blimey, I didn’t see that coming!
I wonder what the Dundee Utd fans think of this news?
Neilson plenty of time between now and October to perfect his tactics !
Did Stendhal walk or get pushed ?
What a sorry episode he was.
They reckon shankland will follow Neilson. They must have a spare couple million lying about
