The generic Hearts thread

[sean04]

If Hamilton are capable of going there and winning. If they score 1st then hearts are in serious trouble 😂😂

[Col2]

Next two game for Hearts are critical.

They should win at home to Hamilton but you never know. Away to St Mirren? Not sure.

If they lose both they are odds on to go down.

Have they got the bottle?

[Waxy]

Even if they win both, they’re still in bother.

Driving through to the game last night listening to the radio and I couldn't believe what I was hearing. Richard Gordon said that since Jerry Butcher came in that hearts results had been a bit up and down but nobody could deny that they had improved. Even some of the media had bought into the myth. Good to hear after the game they were totally ripping him and hearts to bits.

I thought I had misheard that bit too, complete fabrication, like listening to a blether in the pub.

Another example of where - if he is ever allowed back - someone like Michael Stewart would have chipped in and told him their results have been crap.

That nobody else did so demonstrates the quality vacuum when MS and Tom English are missing.

Hamilton look pretty rotten. The battle of the rottens this weekend though.

Think this is the year Hamilton could go down They have ridden thier luck for so long people expect them to avoid relegation
But to do that they need to beat Hearts at the weekend and they are now picking up injuries

For 30 years Hearts ran their football club by ever mounting overdrafts to banks. That avenue is firmly closed as they essentially defaulted on £70+ million of debt, bankrupting one bank in the process. Since then they have been unable to live within their normal football income. They have relied on monthly contributions from fans; loans from budge and "mysterious" donations. All are likely to dry up. At the same time they have miss managed badly: 100%+ on a new stand; millions wasted on relaying their pitch; poor team manager appointment;: and a bloated squad of over paid mediocre talent. No bank or investor will touch them. They are truly a basket case.

Why would the money dry up I hear this argument about The Rangers as well and they just keep going
Fans won’t stop putting money in imo
If hearts were to get relegated the club would appeal to fans to continue putting money in to ensure they come back up in one season

They've got Souttar at the back, Boycie in attack

Make no bones about it, Stendels got them playing, Hearts are back.

Btw, I still can’t get over how bad Souttar is. To think he gets hyped up is crazy.

[MagicSwirlingShip]

The advantage Hamilton have is they’ve been here before, they’ve came through relegation dogfights. Can’t say the same for the gorgie shower.

My only concern is that Hamilton look to have totally collapsed. If it wasn’t for that then I’d be fairly certain Hearts were going down.

I’m actually hoping we get another All Edinburgh Scottish cup final again.It will happen eventually so why not now.They’re probably too mince to even fluke their way to the final.

[sean04]

The fans hounded Berra out the club and now there conceding goals from corner kicks every game. Souter is having a nightmare 😂😂

Since Stendel was appointed (10 games ago), Hamilton have scored more goals than Hearts, conceded less goals than Hearts, won more games and have a higher points tally in the last 10 games than Hearts. In terms of form they are the better side.

They've also beaten Hearts already this season and have experience in fighting (successfully) to stay up for seasons. Hearts are in a relegation dog fight no doubt about it - the game at the weekend is huge.

I’m more optimistic again

Incidentally, Donis Avdijaj. Once the saviour of Hearts and the greatest footballer in the world, was once seen fainting at the sign of a football and hasn’t been seen since. Anyone seen him?

Surely not another striker like that Czech boy who is hyped up and turns out to be so far out his depth that he gets bombed out after 2 or 3 games?

Hamilton without a shadow of a doubt have 3 players in the spine of their team that would walk into the Hearts team -
Gogic, Ogkmpoe up front, and the goalie (mind you, any goalie is better than the Hearts keeper)

He’s on a tour of all Scottish towns and cities. A goal in each a day for the remainder of his contract. Lads earning that extension

Hopefully once Pereira has thrown another in against us in the derby, 3 stands sing in unison, are you zibby in disguise.

It's about time they had a clown in goals for them.

If he’s in goals for the derby then our crowd should be on him from the first whistle. Sadly, I don’t think he can survive until then surely.

To be fair to Vanacek he thought Hearts were a basketball team and Hearts thought he was a very tall footballer of the type they prefer, after a couple of matches Levein recognised this unfortunate misunderstanding and signed another non scoring striker to add to the very long list.

What a ridiculous clause.

It's a ridiculous idea. Utter nonsense made up to excuse their idiot manager's team selections.

Stevie mallan needs to come back in for that game if fit. Immediate should on site policy. Could be comical if el ghost is in goals

Could next week be one of the biggest in their history?

I know that seems a bit dramatic however I wonder what the financial implications are for them with fan ownership kicking in from next year along with the shortfall in finances they already have.

Being relegated would always be bad but I wonder if the stakes are even higher this season?

Fan ownership in name only. Budge has made it quite clear that she's the boss for the foreseeable future.

Probably the the most pleasing and yet most ridiculous aspect of the messiahs reign. They binned Berra because he couldn't play the system of the green press. They were losing the odd silly goal and they blamed it on Berra. Now souttar and halkett are there they have conceded 11 in three games. Guess it wasn't berra who was the problem. Imagine it's Dundee and Hertz in the relegation play off. Would be the most wonderful irony if mcpake,foster and of course Berra could relegate them. They may well win on Saturday but they have a tough after the split fixture list. It's going to be squeeky bum time very soon. For the first time the jambos I know are going very quiet and are now just st hoping they stay up. The Killie defeat has totally eroded any confidence they had. Last night was on most people's radar if Celtic were clinical. Goosed their gd and that could be crucial come the end of may. Hibs in the cup final and Hertz in the relegation play off. Nice thought.

Funnily enough there are striking similarities to 2012 but the opposite way around. Only difference is we are living within our means

[Northernhibee]

I do think that this is another case of what ditching Fenlon to hire Butcher did for us. I don't know but I think Levein may have just - and only just - done enough to get Hearts off the bottom of the table and kept them safe.

If we'd kept Fenlon to the end of the 13/14 season we'd have finished eighth or ninth IMO but rebuilt in the summer with a new manager.

As it is, they've hired a swaggering (or staggering), overconfident bellend who has alienated the dressing room, brought in less players than he needed who were not of the required standard(kind of like what Butcher did with Haynes and Boateng) and began to sink like a stone.

The similarities are uncanny.

[Since452]

Canny wait for this documentary. Is there any way to pre order it?

[FilipinoHibs]

I am not religious but I am praying every night for a Hamilton win. Two ex Hibbies in charge. They know what is required.
