Could Hearts be relegated this season?

I think they'll throw money at it in January in the hope it will work out. They better hope it does though as their current squad could definitely go down. They really are dreadful.

They’ve threw £18 million at it and what’s that got them? 😂😂

The biggest problem they could have is the 3 other teams at the bottom are not mugs and look like they can win the odd game. Hertz look utter cr@p and the demands of their home crowd could work against them.

I’m not sure they have the funds to turn it round, the retention of Levein and the honey monster suggests that the cupboard is bare.......

***Scorrie*** · 26-12-2019 03:03 PM

As I mentioned on another thread, Stendel looks like he’d rather be anywhere but there. Completely lost. How on earth did he end up there? Press ganged?

Looked like he was going to cry at one point during his interview......

Emptied the biscuit tin for the manager they absolutely had to have... at any cost

How many Hearts managers have lost their first 5 games ? ( with Aberdeen to come it’s a distinct possibility)

Gegenpress-ganged surely?🙄

Don't know why this guy gets so much credit. He reminds me of Butcher and by the time they realise it, it will be too late for them.

**stoneyburn hibs** · 26-12-2019 03:14 PM

They could sign 5 or 6 in January but it's not guaranteed that they will click.
They are in peril, Dr Budge says she will worry if they're bottom in February (wtf)
Manager seems clueless, crowd will be on their backs big time now.

It's bloody marvellous.

**Gloucester Hibs** · 26-12-2019 03:15 PM

It’s touch and go now. They have to spend (can they?) and more importantly spend well to stand a chance. Is Stendal the guy to do that?

According to the radio today, he's the first hearts manager to lose four in a row EVER.

***hibbymac*** · 26-12-2019 03:18 PM

Did I hear it right on the telly....... "for the last 8 years, the the team at the bottom of the league at Christmas time have been relegated"

Aye that’s right. Also have to bear in mind that Stendel lost his last 11 or so matches at Barnsley I think so he’s on quite a run...

**rcarter1** · 26-12-2019 03:20 PM

It always slightly annoys me when I have hear of mysterious benefactors pumping millions into Hearts.

#no learnt fe** all

#addicted to handouts

I am rather glad that as it currently stands, they may need all that loot just to avoid relegation

#karma

***Bishop Hibee*** · 26-12-2019 03:21 PM

Worst Hearts team I’ve ever seen.

***Scorrie*** · 26-12-2019 03:22 PM

Currently 4 points adrift as it stands...

***bingo70*** · 26-12-2019 03:22 PM

I know there’s a break coming up but they don’t have the best run of fixtures coming up either.

Aberdeen at home

Ross county away in an evening midweek game which is a horrible fixture.

Rangers at home

St Johnstone away

Killie at home midweek

Celtic away

Jeez that's a brutal run of games they really could be cut adrift how pleasing

They’ll do well to pick up two points from that.

Throw in a banana skin of a match in the SC against joint leaders of the 1st Airdrie, and you have to say OUCH!

Aberdeen, Rangers, Celtic and Killie in 4 of their next 6 league games.

At Johnstone and Ross county away the other 2.

Sorry, I know I just said that in my earlier post but I thought it was funny so worth mentioning again.

**Smartie** · 26-12-2019 03:31 PM

I didn’t think they were all that bad, but the bottom line is their goalkeeper didn’t make big saves when required, their defence wasn’t good enough to stop big chances being created, their midfield had a lot of the ball without creating much and they missed the chances they did create. That makes for an awful combination, one we’ve seen from us far too often.

There are some ok players there but they need to be fitter more than they’ve got a track record of being and that squad badly needs added to.

Didn’t quite get that, fancy explaining it again?
