Hearts have got it sussed according to Tom English.

"Snappy decisions". I thought English was supposed to be a journalist.

A little nugget buried in there.....

The fact is, though, it would take a few more of Neilson's vital organs and a lot of James Anderson's - and the club's other benefactors' - money to get that one across the line.

There are more than 2

I suspect you're right but he may have been referring to F of H.

AB has always used the plural. Someone on here suggested that the plural could have been Anderson and his wife, which is fair.

But I was forgetting about the 400,000 other benefactors.

Honestly, when does T English get sacked? His myopia is unbelievable.

The biggest factor in Hearts getting relegated is Hearts. No one ‘put them down’... the SPFL just refused to overturn the rule that says the club that finishes bottom of the league gets relegated.

"Now that they've got their manager there are only a few minor issues left to resolve - the legal action to either win back their place in the Premiership or win a truckload of compensation from those who put them down..."


They put themselves down by only winning 4 games all season. Fed up reading pish like this from Hearts mouthpieces like English. There are other possible outcomes to their legal action, not that you'd know it if you followed BBC coverage.

Amazing that he only considered the two options as the ones being available - reinstatement or compensation. There is the third option, which is neither, and I'd put my money on that being the one that transpires.

I think Neilson’s got self-respect issues, personally.

Would you really go back to a previous employer who had shown so little faith in your abilities that they binned you for Ian Cathro? Would you work again for customers who had hired a plane to criticise you so publicly?

I certainly wouldn’t, but each to their own.

Robbie wasn't binned,the approach from MK was turned down but Robbie requested to speak with them, the rumour at the time was he wasn't getting on with Levein interfering with first team matters. With Levein now gone he was obviously keen on a return after Stendel informing Ann he has had an offer in Germany

Let me begin by warmly welcoming Robbie Neilson back to the club as first-team manager. Robbie will take up his duties, officially, on 1st July, 2020.The news that Robbie is to return to Hearts has taken everyone somewhat by surprise. It was my stated intention to prioritise the appointment of a Sporting Director, prior to confirming any new manager appointment. However, in all businesses, even “the best laid plans” may have to be altered to cope with changing circumstances.

While Robbie agreeing to come back is excellent news, it does mean we have to say goodbye to Daniel. The uncertainties surrounding Scottish Football in general and Hearts’ situation in particular, has put enormous pressure on all of us, not least Daniel. He has shown great patience and understanding throughout this enormously challenging time. I cannot thank him enough for the support he has given to our Club.

None of us expected our relationship to be so short-lived but then none of us ever expected to have to deal with the effects of a global pandemic. It is clear that all Clubs are having to rethink their short-medium plans and we are no different.

I do want to thank Daniel very sincerely for his fantastic support and leadership during his short spell with us. He made a big impact on our operation and we are much better for having had his services. Had it not been for Covid-19 and its impact, I have no doubt that Daniel would have had a very successful and enjoyable time here at Hearts.

Daniel became a firm fans’ favourite in a very short space of time. On behalf of everyone here at the Club, the Board, the staff, the players and, of course, the supporters, I want to wish him and his assistants, Jorg Sievers and Dale Tonge, the very best of luck for their future success. They will always be welcomed back here at Tynecastle.

Yet another Hearts statement. When they posted about the legal case she said they wouldn't be posting again.
This is the second statement in two days.

This one deals with the departure of dearly beloved Daniel. Apparently his leaving is (somehow?) due to the global pandemic and nothing to do with the fact that he was a rubbish manager.

In response to the old woman’s statement, I had to laugh at this:

Nice touch. Confirms that no matter what has happened, we believe Stendel is an absolute diamond and model pro. Just hope he can find a job now where he isn’t walking into a **** show of the highest order with a bunch of mercenaries. Oh the irony !!!

Remaining at a club of Hearts stature would surely have been more alluring to Neilson than moving to the English equivalent of Livingston. Hearts had the means to keep him if they wanted but they were happy to let him go once the compensation was right. You can try and re-write history but the truth is a majority of fans wanted him gone and he wasn’t sticking around somewhere he knows he wasn’t wanted.

It’s ok mate, we’ve been following the story ourselves. Posting the Hearts propaganda line on here is cute but dumb. No one believes it.

Anyhow, however you’ve done it, Neilson is a good re-appointment. He’s proved himself as a Championship manager.

It is the exact same narrative as the Hun apologists used when The Rangers were "relegated" by all the other clubs to the 4th division, rather than being allowed to start again in the Championship.

Own up who was this

We’ve got a stylish Robbie Neilson
A Scotsman who came from Dundee way
He’s brought in effective winning football
Let's hope he can keep the planes at bay
And we’ve got Scotland in a shock
Doncaster’s in the dock
Neilson’s got us playing, we’re on the up

Robbie Neilson as a "phoodle". Think the nickname started when the rumours where going about Levein was picking the team and he was just a front hence being called a lapdog and a wee poodle. Think the apology thing is due to us knocking them out the cup after claiming a replay would be a good money spinner
