To Jambos Kickback this is how we are feeling tonight

[cocteautwin]

I notice that Hearts (and Celtc!) legend Craig Gordon has set up a testimonial year. Totally jealous Hearts (and Celtc!) have had a player like this for so long and is responsible for many a point or three dropped by the Hibees.

I don't want to be seen as points scoring . . . . . . but I do wonder if Gordon is doing this for Charity like classy Hibs pair Hanlon & Stevenson who set up Hanlon Stevenson Foundation and ran their testimonial year for this purpose?

Doesn't seem to be any mention of charity at all on Craig Gordon's page. It all looks like ME ME ME to me.

Hilarious how Shankland has been ripping the p*** out of Hearts for 12+ months. It's obvious he wants to be elsewhere but has been keeping Hearts in reserve as a last resort.

Supposedly they offered him a bumper deal over a year ago, he's been trying to get a move ever since yet there's still a deal at Hearts available for him, albeit the deal seemingly now isn't as good.

Hearts are basically the unattractive lass you have a bit of a snog with at 11pm in the nightclub, you then spend the next 4 hours getting kb'd by every other lass in the place until the last song comes on and you end up going back to the 1st one. In my case I'd get kb'd then too but in Shankland's case, 10 minutes later Hearts will be giving him a bj in the cemetary off King's Stables Road....with the deal being pretty much the initial megabucks one.

Darren's Testimonial will also contribute to the Hanlon Stevenson Foundation, another great reason to support the upcoming match v bolton.

Tickets should be announced soon, the date is the 19th July, KO at 2pm..

Looking forward to a cameo appearance by Daz and also a good outing from the First 11 in a serous match, Bolton should bring good support be great to see a great turnout for this match.

So the new ‘Buzz Word’ down Gorgie way is disrupt. Not challenge but disrupt the Old Firm.

I saw part of Gordon’s interview this morning and that’s the wording he used.

He's going to go into their changing room during the half-time team talk, crap on the floor then leave.

He's been sneaking in early and looking up fancy words on the super duper Identify people from Kilmarnock computer........

Quite a few of us will remember the Jaskalaainen testimonial game at Bolton where Hibs took somewhere between 3 and 4 thousand fans. As I recall they didn't take kindly to some of our chants about her majesty ... one guy in particular was beside himself with rage, it was quite funny to be honest

They are truly a weird bunch. They are so invested in “the analytics” bull**** and promise of challenge the OF they can’t even question why the club is buying either McInnes cloggers or Norwegian 2nd division never heard off players. The CEO has come out a week ago and said that Blooms money is coming at a good time given the very difficult finaniclal results they are facing. That and Budge need to spend some of it on the next vanity project means the £9.5m will just be eaten away completely.


They are further away from challanging the OF than they have been for years. I am not convinced they will challenge either ourselves or Aberdeen.

They always have been have they not?

Pretty much every team is invested in the use of data however why do they need to constantly feed this line to the media is beyond me.

I’ve never known any other team to highlight this and I’m not even sure I have heard Brighton mentioning data when signing players (maybe wrong though).

It’s like they are the ones and only team using the one and only data system.

All about the need to show how big they are and their continued need to tell the world that they are, when indeed they are not.

Where do they get this nonsense from and who actually buys it? They barely lay a glove on either of the Old Firm. No wins v either last season. Think they have 2 wins in their last 16 v Celtic and 14 defeats.

They haven't beaten Rangers in over five years, they've been relegated more recently than that.

Truly delusional and you'd have to be a complete mug to believe any of it.

Budge and McKinley. They set the tone and expect it to be followed and the gullible ones lap it all up.

Every single opportunity it’s bigliest or bestest and even the media lap it up.

Bit like the reported 7k ST waiting list.

Got to love them though. Every single season they trot out players who spout this gospel only for them to fall flat on their faces.

Just wait until Shankland has zero offers elsewhere and signs back on for a record high wage (sure we will hear all about it)

It’s actually quite cringeworthy and I’m really glad our Chair doesn’t go on about our stadium capacity or our own training facility.

Deep down (evidence by two Jambo mates of mine) they know they have screwed up the £50m donations and have seen both ourselves and now Aberdeen win the cup in between them being relegated.

It eats away at them given this superiority complex they have. Since budge has taken over they has seen zero major trophies and two relegations. They couldn’t wait to ditch Naismith and then Critchley was the next best thing and now it’s Derek McInnes.

The true test re McInnes is - would any ambitious club really see him as the answer or is it only when your club is really struggling does DM look like a very good appointment? I felt the same when we were in the **** a year ago when Monty was binned and would have been ok with us getting him. But his record has been average at best and Killie fans were hounding him when we played them in 1-1 game in March.

Remember when they used to go on about their special relationship with the Scottish Cup and their 3 in 14 years? This season will mark 14 years since their last one and they've failed to add to their tally whilst, as you say, watching us and Aberdeen win it after disposing of them on the way. Not to mention Inverness and St Johnstone (twice)

Wee team, wee analytics.

I'm quite happy for them to have delusions of "disrupting" the Glasgow 2. It means their expectations are unrealistically high and the manager is given very little leeway before the abuse from the stands start.

Wonder how long it will take them to realise they've been hoodwinked by Budge and McKinlay over the analytics. I doubt it's any better than what we've access to from Bournemouth and with Hearts it's still the same eejits making the decisions and doing the deals.

They've been nowhere near unearthing any hidden gems so far, Kabangu has been about the best but he tailed off after getting off to a decent start and you could probably say he wasn't even one found off the back of the criteria supplied by Hearts. He was one of Onion's rejects.

They could try disrupting the top six first.

I think they were ruptured in their big spending attempt to do just that last season.

Which is a shame when one reflects on Mystic Dhanda's crystal ball gazing......

It’s bizarre hearing the Jamestown analytics being trotted out constantly like it’s some kind of revolution in the sport, I remember David Martindale chatting about how he has to trust the data when identifying players because it is the way things are going and his team were in the championship! It’s baffling how this is being gobbled up
