More Liths At The PBS

[Mikey]

The manager may change but he still does what he's told...........

HEARTS have taken on youngsters Marius Forest and Thomas Snapkauskas from Lithuanian feeder club FBK Kaunas.

It seemed Lithuanian influence was in decline at Tynecastle with owner Vladimir Romanov taking less of an interest.

But they are still looking at Baltic talent and will develop the duo at their academy.

Forest.

A budding young talent.

Sounds like a roots and branches reform.

But are Hearts out of the woods yet?

This youngster might be able to help them turn over a new leaf.

Snapkauskas? Has he red hair, by any chance?

Cuz then he'd be a GINGER SNAPkauskas...

Jeffries is proving wise in his autumn years and will hope these aquisitions bear fruit. they are fir-ever willing to take on Lithuanian talent and I'm sure hearts will be oak-ay in the future - much like their evergreen rivals from across the city.

Then again they could be bark-ing mad

[StevieC]

So Hearts, in their current financial position, are going to fund the development of a couple of players from another team.

That's very generous of them because I wouldn't have thought flights, accomodation and wages would come cheap.

Kaunus/Vlad, on the other hand, could make a nice bit of cash in transfer fee's if the young players develop into decent footballers.

[Hakim Sar]

valdimir romanov eh... who woulda thought it eh

;)

[Danderhall Hibs]

Be fair - Jefferies is renowned for his scouting network, no doubt he's had his eye on those 2 for some time but Killie couldn't afford to back him.

Meet the new boss.
Same as the old boss.

They're having kittens over there at the news that Kingston has had his appeal rejected.

It's just another slap in the face for a famous old club that has always done things the decent way. You have to feel for them.

You can fool most of the people all of the time.
And all the people most of the time.

That's usually long enough to be manager of Hearts. (Or president of the USA.)

Welcome to the board mate.

Don't know much about the price of flights, but Hearts don't pay their Den Mothers or their players from what I've heard!

Yes sir no sir three bags full sir, same old dictatorship in charge, what a bunch of puppets

It's quite funny. The thread about it over the road could have been written at any time in the last five years.

They're just trotting out the same old excuses.

You cant have registration fees working their way back to deepest Lithuania without actually sending the odd lackey over to showcase his talent.

The fact that they're probably landscape gardeners is neither here nor there, really.

I take it that this is a non-story, FatJimKnew isn't being undermined and if these guys are rubbish they'll be on their way without ever getting near the first team etc. etc.?

'cos Pilibaitis and Beniusis et al were never allowed near the first team were they?

I know that we can't help but defend those that we love but there is a line, if you cross it you start to look a bit stupid and folk mock you and deem you rather dim, pathetic and weak.

Ol' Uncle Vlad is still running the show over there, of that there is no doubt and yet those deluded helmets are still standing in front of the cameras like Comical Ali telling all and sundry that there is no crisis; which would have been believable if you never peered over his shoulder and saw Baghdad falling to pieces around him.

Even when the bulldozers are razing their sh*thole stadium to the ground, they'll still be standing in McLeod Street telling the gathering journalists that it's all part of the masterplan and they're going to build a new stadium big enough to house 400,000.

Fuds.

[Bostonhibby]

Dont see the problem - they brought in Jumbo for his vast experience and knowledge of the transfer market, he has a proven record of scouring the world for talent before landing on Lithuania as the natural source of talent, you only have to look at how many players he has brought in from there at his previous clubs, he is clearly his own man and continuing with his mastery in the same way as he kept Killie going so succesfully on a shoestring budget. oh ?, wait a minute

Jumbo's proven himself to have no balls since he got back to PBS.

Expect a statement from him to say that he's been scouting these two guys since he was manager of Berwick Rangers, their arrival is entirely his doing and that he didn't even know Hearts had a fax machine.

[lyonhibs]

Sorry. but with names like Snapkauskas and that most Lithuanian of monikers - "Forest" - this is surely some elaborate wind-up.

At least the other *****ey imports SOUNDED Lithuanian. This just sounds like Tim Burton has been asked to name a couple of characters from the East for his new horror movie "Nightmare on McLeod Street"

I was actually in the cubicle next to Jumbo when he got the original call from Hearts. He had just terminated a call where he was literally BEGGING someone to allow him to trial a couple of Lithuanian 'stars'.

Hearts seem to have managed to gazump not only Kilmarnock but the entirity of world football here, big team right enough and Jumbo showing the integrity, spirit and backbone that should ensure a long and prosperous tenure as lead puppet at the circus.
