Hearts - the worst team of the modern era.

**Cabbage East** · 09-03-2014 01:25 PM

Are the current Hearts team the worst team to have played top flight football in Scotland in modern times? I'd have to say yes.

Thoughts?

Toss up between them and Gretna to be fair.

Not comparable with any other team, they are being forced to play the kids every week and doing a damn good job with them all things considered don't you know.

Difficult to agree with you really as the "worst team to have played top flight football in modern times" managed to beat us ...

**Pretty Boy** · 09-03-2014 01:34 PM

Those brave young warriors are in the position they are because of the totally unfair signing ban and points deduction.

If it wasn't for that deduction they would be nowhere near the bottom of the league. Err.......

I am not sure if they are the worst team of the modern era but regardless, they are going to get a lot worse in the coming years when they drop into the Lowland League after Liquidation. We would need a three headed Skacel with L finger signs to point that out if we were c**** like them.

**~~Hibercelona~~** · 09-03-2014 02:50 PM

Gretna of 2007 and Livingstone of 2005 were both diabolical.

Too bad there isn't one in the league this season to save them poor brave boys..... a real shame.

I agree, although they still have managed to beat in this season. Not confident for the away match at the end of march

weak but not the worst.you dont win two derbies by being awful

***Jack Hackett*** · 09-03-2014 03:52 PM

Winning two derbies they shouldn't have won doesnt make them any less awful....Just a wee bit fortunate. Over the course of the season, they have been dire and are going down on merit

**#FromTheCapital** · 09-03-2014 04:04 PM

They would be if it wasn't for Jamie Hamill.

**weonlywon6-2** · 09-03-2014 04:07 PM

winning two derbies they shouldnt have ,but did.
if we say they are the worst team ever they still beat us twice no matter which way you look at it

**Cabbage East** · 09-03-2014 04:10 PM

By that logic Celtic aren't the best team in Scotland because Aberdeen have beaten them twice this season.

**Dashing Bob S** · 09-03-2014 04:18 PM

One of the worst teams but definitely the worst club. (Sorry Rantic).

...and didn't we draw with them? Does that make us as good as them. This 'They're better than us, because they beat us twice crap really gets on my thrupennies. They're *****...end of

**#FromTheCapital** · 09-03-2014 04:28 PM

We beat Celtic the same season they beat Barca. Guess that makes us the Worlds greatest.

If they finish on lower points than Gretna's thirteen in 2008 then the answer is yes.

And the Yams are played two won two against the Dons this season ergo the brave young lions are the best team in Scotland.

Hear hear. We've got a pretty appalling team too. It's dark days for Edinburgh football.

Maybe if we amalgamated and built a new stadium out at Straiton......

Gretna took three of those points off the Yams that year, right?

Prob not but we aint great ourselves at the moment

***PatHead*** · 09-03-2014 07:16 PM

Yes

***Hibernia&Alba*** · 09-03-2014 07:28 PM

Gretna were appalling once their financial problems set in, as said above. Theirs is one of the strangest stories in football.

So the worst team in the modern area were better than the most disgusting.

Seems fair to me.

Livi had a cracking team a season or two before that when they won the cup and finished 3rd, strange how quickly they plummeted although financial problems was probably a huge factor.

Well, yes. They had a cracking team built on about £9m of debt.
They won a trophy against us whilst they were in Administration playing all their players they still couldn't afford.

I had about as much sympathy for them as I have for the Jams as both of them knew exactly what they were doing.

Gretna was different in my eyes as they should never have been allowed in the top flight in the first place. They had no compliant stadium, a handful of fans and were run like a corner shop being staffed by a lunatic throwing money around.
