Thought it was quite clever and funny myself.

"Anyway **** em..the media will always criticise hearts because of sheer jealousy about us as a club, our stadium, our history, our beautiful city and our position as the biggest most successful team in that beautiful city."
You have to feel sorry for these guys.
“Don’t you know who I am?” asked the famous world class defender turned manager turned football overlord. He was joking of course - his glittering career and enormous medal haul meant EVERYBODY knew who he was.
“Are you the waiter?” replied Stendel. His head was killing him and he really needed a drink to take the edge off.
Levein huffed. This relationship was not getting off to a good start...
What the **** is this

They are all getting excited about genitalprodding or something like that. Liverpool, Man City and Barcelona do it so must be a natural fit for Berra and co.
Klopp, Pep, Liverpool, City and Barcelona all mentioned in the article yet by all accounts they don’t currently have the quality of players to play that type of football so players out before players in.
You couldn’t make this up. Did the EEN run story after story about Jack Ross! Cannot remember seeing as many as they get printed.
I really want them to get pumped tomorrow!

The EEN is an embarrassment these days so hearts biased and full of slavering maroon tinted virgins with a notepad, pen and picture of rudi on their desks. No offence to virgins intended.
As a result of a couple of other bets going right.
All proceeds to Leithlinks if Stendal/Levein/McPhee/Kirk/Daly/uncle Tom Cobleigh and all fail to deliver as a managerial team.

The poor sap just got caught by a journalist whilst he was sitting at the end of a bar in gorgie having his 5th pint of lager and wondering WTF you do with a pickled egg so he just made a word up, Gegenpressing.
Banderson went straight to press with this latest first for the megastanders and the rest is history.

I’ve been watching that Formula 1 stuff on the telly and really fancy it, how hard can it be? Driving an that.
Took my Qashqai 1.5l diesel to the Nurburgring and apparently did the slowest lap ever recorded there. Can’t believe it man.
It’s almost as if knowing how to drive and having the equipment that allows you to drive doesn’t actually mean you can polish a turd.
Imagine my disappointment.
Think it's time we had a Pet Shop Boys tune on the go for the upcoming derby over in Gorgie
"We're East End Boys in a dead end world
Jack Ross 1 Stendel nil
Stendel nil"
Its what passes for print journalism these days. i.e. take the germ of a story, google it, cut and paste what you think are the relevant bits and publish it.
Utter drivel.
Scotland used to produce some really excellent sports journalists but sadly they are very thin on the ground these days.
Aka Lazy Journalism.
Every time they do something ie build a new mega stand (which btw is not finished.) or get a new manager the EEN write it up like they were the first to think of it. They seem to hang on every word spoken by Budgie.
They can have it btw. Pandering to the hordes to keep them sweet!

The weirdo that is Joel Sked is the worst at veiled digs about Hibs in the EEN

Every single day!

Stendel speaking to the players in the dressing room.
“ gegenpressing', which translates as counter-pressing. It's sometimes misunderstood, however. Counter-pressing isn't to pressing what counter-attacking is to attacking. It's not necessarily countering a press, but pressing a counter."
Cue tumbleweed.
Gegenpressing worked a treat at Barnsley this season
Watch hearts win against a piss poor saints side and the EEN go into overdrive about how good stendel is
Stendel has literally the easiest start possible. If they don't win today then they'll be panicking a bit for what lies ahead. Fwiw I think they'll win by a few and he'll be the best thing since sliced bread
It’s a fancy name for the way we played again not Celtic when Rodgers was there.Get in amongst their central defenders and rattle them.Easy stuff given fancy title.
We need to remember Hearts are dug ***** so no matter what kind of formation / press they play there is no guarantee of results. They are down the bottom of the league mid December for a reason.
McPhee couldn't get anything from that squad so why should Stendel?
Indeed they are but come on even the amount of ***** and drivel about everything is OTT!
Chat of Pep/Klopp with the mention of City and Liverpool. Desperate times mean desperate measures I suppose!
It’s not even the access I wouldn’t want Hibs to go down that desperate route.

Half their players are injured all the time, and thats playing hoof ball from Berra to Uche all the time, so I can’t wait until they all have to run an extra 10km each during a game!
Naismith will last 2 games instead of 4.
That EEN article is just laughable. A tactical insight for a support who are used to watching a football repeatedly travel 80 yards in the air...
This bit is especially good:
"The German coach has the players, and by all accounts they subscribe to his approach and his tactical set-up."
It works well when you have the calibre of players like Mane, Firminho and Salah. Not so sure the likes of Uche Ikpeazu and 50 year old Stevie Maclean will press as well...
New manager bounce will see them win today. Comfortably.
i think Stendel will do well for them but it’ll be next season before they reap the benefits. You can’t polish a turd. And that’s one hell of a turd their team is this year. Still cant believe we let them walk out of leith with a victory under their belts.
Fantastic pic of Stendel on the BBC Scotland Sport home page. If that’s not a drinkers nose, I don’t know what is.
Cant see old eggshell hamstrings Naismith and ikpeazmountain running around pressing like headless chickens for 90 mins.
Watching the game on IPTV and the camera zoomed in on Wright. The stand behind him looks about 50 years old, it's all rusting down the front.
Both teams have been garbage that goalie for hearts has looked well dodgey
Shocking 1st half at Tynie. Crowd look bored ****less.
No new manager bounce there then
O'Halloran late winner.
Get in St J. Stendel must stay. Great start for Hearts at home against one of the worst teams in the league by a distance.
I cannot wait for our Boxing Day game against them. Gengenpress against Flo, Doidge, Allan and Boyle will be a disaster for Hearts.
Hearts are truly woeful. Pleasing.
Ha ha
1st away win for nearly a year for St Johnstone 😂 😂
Hearts down to 11th?
Staypressen - playing football which results in you staying at the bottom of the league.
Wouldnt it be neighbourly of us if we compiled a wee dossier of local pubs in places like Alloa and the likes for the jambos next season.

Poundshop Klopp
Couple of cans, big bag of Doritos and i’ll head over to Kickback later for an hour of priceless entertainment.
HaHaHaHaHahaHaHaHa, ma side are ****ing sair as ever **** the Hertz
@JKBMeltdown on twitter makes fun reading tonight
Played GD Points 10 St Johnstone 16 -19 15 11 Hearts 17 -12 12 12 Hamilton 18 -15 12
Preston on BBC.
"They should be competing for Europe. They're a million miles away"
"St Johnstone deserved to win"
And a few other plaintive utterings.
But he thinks if Hearts don't win soon they "could" go on a bad run. Could?
The level of delusion on Kickback this week was astounding. Anyone questioning the appointment was supposedly " jealous of the famous" and the media are all against Hearts as 'we are a threat to the OF'.
Regardless of their manager having a drink problem ( for his sake I hope.not) he hasn't managed a win in his last 11 games. That is bound to attract scrutiny and analysis. Losing (deservedly according to radio) to a team who haven't won away for a calendar year is a disastrous start. Long.may it continue.

Stendel won't be there long...
Great start. Carrying on that good run of managerial form to 11 games without a win. Keep up the good work Danny Boy and we will be buying you drinks down the pub.
He'll be getting pished tonight
They're in a proper dogfight now.
