Mark McGhee would be my choice to replace Frain at Tyney, but it needs much more than just a manager to revive Hearts. We need better quality players who have the desire to earn their substantial pay cheques by 100% effort every week, not just when it suits them. Aslo, although we are stuck with Romonov at least for the time being but according to reports things are starting to improve behind the scenes and this may mean that Hearts are able to attract McGhee for next season at least.

"It's not as if I actively put my name forward for this level of speculation. I didn't wake up one morning and decide I wanted to be considered for the Scotland job. What happened was Alex McLeish, the outgoing manager, put my name forward and Gordon Strachan, a good friend, supported my candidacy. Then the story grew its own momentum."

Indeed Mark, but you were still interviewed for the Scotland job and reportedly came within a whisker of getting it... it wasn't just a story.

He doesn't say where he'll be next season, he doesn't say he's signing (or even negotiating) a contract extension with Motherwell, so who knows?

I'll be watching this story with interest - at least until we appoint Manageras Nomarkis of course.

Obviously McGhee would be a good appointment, but I just don't see it happening. To be honest, I'd be surprised to see anyone leave another job to be the Hearts manager.
While Vlad has said he'll butt out, I'd have thought it's still too much of an unknown for someone to leave a solid job, with a reliable, predictable owner for who-knows-what at Tynie.

1 -How is it a kick in the teeth? Before Mark McGhee was Motherwell manager was he high up on supporters wish lists every time a new manager was required at Tynie. He wasn't on mine, and I'm not going to shove him to the top of the wanted list on the basis of "relative" success over a short time period at Motherwell.

Yes, he has a decent past record at management level, but after being out of the game for so long, it will take a bit before I'd see him as the man to take Hearts forward, and certainly won't be jumping on the McGhee bandwagon at the mo.

good one lol

I think there could be a lot more twists and turns to this story,Mcghee isnt going to take any job at moment i said that weeks ago when it was first mentioned we were interested and i was actually surprised he went for the Scotland manager interview.

I know everyones said for long enough a decent manager worth his salt wont touch the Hearts job, however as it appears Vlad has stuck to his word and not been interfering i think a cast iron promise to a new manager, even if its written into his contract the there will be no interference from Vlad, and also a substantial transfer kitty would tempt most managers, no matter who they are.

McGhee was a complete failure in England mate, lets not forget that. Motherwell is the first position he has had with reletively good results, cant say success yet as he hasnt achieved any, only a run of good results and a team playing decent football.

Ill agree with you McGhee wouldnt be my first choice either, but would be arguably better than what we have had since Burley left.

Can't understan why Romanov hasn't done the obvious:

Advertise the post.

That way the management can sift out unsuitable candidates in order to ascertain who is the best man for the job. All we have heard so far is candidates identified by Romanov himself.

Given his track record in 'man-management' I wouldn't really have any faith in anyone he has personally selected.

We've had a bad season. We just have to take our lumps and concentrate on the positives.

unless Romanov specifically puts into a contract for the new manager, whoever it will be, that he WILL have full control of first team affairs etc, then Hearts will struggle to find any manager who will make a positive impact.

agree with #3 too. A mass exodus of players is required and Hearts will need at least 3 or 4 new QUALITY signings (the same standard as Kingston)to get anywhere near where they got 2 seasons ago. The expectation levels obviously soared after 'that' season and quite rightly so. However, Vlads pig-headed attitude and quite regularly absurd decisions on how to run Hearts has seen the quick demise of the club. Anderton describing him as a fantasy football manager was spot on. If he has seen the error of his ways, thank goodness. However, from what the Hearts fans have heard and seen from Vlad over the last 3 years, we would be naive to ignore the possibility that his comments are just a 'smokescreen'. Hopefully, for the sake of the club and its fans, he was being genuine when he said he has made mistakes.

Definately over hyped m8, a lot of poeple think he's the next best thing since sliced bread. The guys done a half decent job in what 6 months, look at what he has worked with, Motherwell have been lucky in the sense they have avoided suspensions/injuries so have been able to play a settled team, and we all know how much of a difference a settled team makes, coupled together with a decent run they had and the momentum builds up the confidence sky rockets, again other teams have done this, but once injuries and suspensions kick in then a couple of defeats the heads start going down, thats when a manager shows his credentials.

Mark McGhee comes across as intelligent, measured and thoughtful and I would not be disappointed to see him at Tynie. I think however that there is a long way to go before the season ends and his admirable commitment to Motherwell can change. 'Well could continue to enjoy their current success or go into a downward spiral, it's happened many times before. The danger comes when their best players get tapped up and become unsettled. I'd like to see how Mark MCGhee's season pans out before getting too enthusiastic about him. I also still think the job is always best done by a Jambo.

Wouldn't be too sure about Vlad's relaxation of the reigns with team selection - mind you , Stevie Frail maybe just selects the team that he knows Vlad wants out. Remember Kurskis played when the tea lady was fit , plus Miko has appeared in all seven games since SF's tenure began. Though he had an average game against Rangers - nobody in their right mind would pick this player on one reasonable game in thirty.

Maybe your'e right but some progress has been made in the sense the team is a little more settled, not the same chopping and changing rotational rubbish we had before. I agree Miko would not mine or most peoples first choice however out of those last 7 games i think he has played 4 or 5 decent games not sparkling by any means but not too bad, and we have had injuries/suspensions and kingston is away remember. I reckon a fully fit and available midfield and with Kingston back will show everyone if Vlad is still picking the team or if SF is doing what he thinks Vlad would like, as Miko wouldnt get anywhere near the team.

Whats interesting or got me thinking, is were due to play Gretna this weekend, the game where the protests were expected to start, and in the paper we have more talk of a manager. Could be my paranoia here but isnt it possible someone somewhere at tynie has deliberately planted the seeds to this story to have it in papers to try appease the fans or deflect attention away from any protests. As the week goes on how many more stories about possible managers/players etc will start to appear in the media? i think we might see a few.

The protests being organised against Gretna this weekend should not have been stopped IMO, Vlad has done nothing yet to back up the statement made 1st January, we are still in same postion as a club as we were before, we may have won a couple games and climbed a couple positions in the league but could soon be back down again if teams win their games in hand or we return to loosing ways and start dropping points again.

I agree, while things may be slightly better than they were 2 months ago, there's still no tangible signs of a change. We could have got a manager in during the transfer window, the fact we haven't - and there's been no news from Tynecastle, and no signings other than someone who already had a contract with us - does make me think it may have been a smokescreen to keep us quiet. To me, the reasons the protests were mooted in the first place are still valid, and the concerns should still be there. But for some reason, a statement on the website and a couple of wins is enough to quieten down the fans.

"Fernando is keen to feature as soon as possible for his new club but Stephen has stressed that patience will be the name of the game for the midfielder, who will not be featuring in this weekend's Clydesdale Bank Premier League clash with Gretna."

"Fernando has trained with us for the last couple of sessions and that gave us the opportunity to have a look at him to assess his fitness," said Stephen.

"However, he is a little bit away yet from the level required. He will keep working on his sharpness and fitness and then we'll see how he is."

The point Pedantic was trying to make is that you may spend money on wages ect but this is NOT financial muscle. You are in essence spending money you dont have, a bit like a blonde ex of mine maxing her Credit Cards. Any money you spend on wages or anything else just increases the debt.

However, as you say, no need to worry about it as that famous Charitable organisation UBIG just give money away and expect nothin in return...

#71 I think the point is that - right now - Hearts are willing to pay the wages to get players like Kingston in, no-one can deny that. Question is are we "spending money" or are we "racking up debt"?
I could go out tomorrow and put a new car on my credit card, doesn't mean I have the financial clout to buy it outright.

The bigger question - which has been debated to death round here - is whether, long term, the debt we're building is manageable? Ultimately nobody knows for sure, fact are Ukio Bankas aren't that big - they're a solid bank, but turn over small profits. UBIG, also not that big. The financial web that Vlad has built up is hard to work out for sure, there are potentially scenarios where he could pull the plug and walk away leaving us in the sh*t - if he's set up the companies that way and that's what he's planning on doing, alternatively he's set up the current structure because it's tax efficient or somesuch and he is in it for the long term.

GrahamL - Not sure Hearts are willing to spend the money to get guys like Kingston in.... We didn't sign anyone of Kingston's quality in the last two transfer windows. Its more like we are getting cheap imports but paying them more than they are worth IMO and calling this finanical clout, it isn't. For example just because you pay more doesn't mean you get value. I think we are paying to much for many of the players we have in the hope of selling them for huge profits. Whilst it probably kept gordon longer and made us a mint on that deal, the opposite happens with the mince and we can't get rid, they are happy to sit and take their wage for doing eff all.

No doubt Hibs signing Colin Nish was a display of financial muscel ? Kilile made him an offer, he KB and went to Hibs. Now suppose Hearts offered barry robson more to come to Edinburgh, do you think he would have ?

I don't and its nowt to do with finance its the way the club is run.

I heard a whisper the Liths are on sweety money. The wage bill I would imagine is greatly reduced and not the problem some believe it to be. Problem with financial accounts I find is that they represent something gone by and not the status quo. I reckon they must have raked in a fair bit this year for perhaps nowhere near the outlay, still not wiping out the debt I realise but the interest is low despite heading East to pay for some other nations pension earner, allegedly.....maybe

Anyway, by your logic Aberdeen are a far bigger team than Hearts. Odd that their supporters dont embarress themselves by self appointing them as the Big Team.

Put it this way, the current savings balances (and yes hoboconomists that's a liability rather than an asset for a bank but hopefully you get the picture) that I look after for the bank I work for are just over £5bn, i.e over five times Ukio's total asset base. And we are a comparatively small bank on the UK market.

And assets for a bank are loans - what's the 'quality' of the assets Ukio has and what's their contingent liability for defaults?

an argument with hibees about hearts finances. as stuart cosgrove would say, "ya canny beat it HAAA HAAAAAAA!!!".

ahem, anyway.....

lenny, pedantic hobo and others, it smacks of desperation and denial to say that hearts do not have financial clout. while what you are saying about the big wages and any transfer fees which are paid is essentially true, it is money being spent which we don't have, i'm afraid that is just too simplistic a way to look at it.

to a football player or a club selling a player, it doesn't matter a jot where their money comes from, as long as it's paid at all. therefore the term 'financial clout' is a valid description of hearts, comparatively speaking of course.

if hearts offer a player £15K pw compared to an offer he has from another club amounting to £5K pw, that is comparative financial clout. sorry if that isn't what you want to hear but i'm afraid it's true.

you keep saying that the money keeps getting added to the club debt, great, whoopsy-doo.

you know what folks, monies in such as £9M for gordon and whatever they get for a few others in the future WILL reduce that debt. in a way transfer fees such as the gordon money go towards player wages.

that IS financial clout.

the planning consent, should it be granted, will no doubt have a sunset clause of some description, meanin that the works will have to start before a pre-determined date.

Anton the Tynecastle planning application will almost certainly be accepted if you go by anything some council people have said and bu what Hearts have said. the reason it took so long to submit was for this very reason they didnt want it being knocked back for silly little things that needed re-doing. HMFC and the council have been in constant consultation throught the process so HMFC knew that when submitted there would be no objections to the actual work thats to be carried out or the final product.

I note in an earlier post that Rocky Visconte scored for the under 19's a few days ago.
The guy's got quality and dare I say the word flare (the real type - not pseudo FFFHibee version)- Win against gretna and Spl footer guaranteed for next season therefore Give Visconte and others a chance - We did it with Jonsson last season - Success.
Pick 5 youngsters and play two or three per remaining game , perming any two or three from five. Each would get five or six games - A fine grounding for next season.
OOPS forgot - we just HAVE to reach the top six - NAH , scrap that thought - Build for August.

Big Rob.

Mt last post was based on Fact. Fact that what was said has actually been said by HMFC and some coucillors, Nothing was based on conjecture either by myself or others. FACT a word missing from the hobo dictionary.

Charlie Mann himself when he was on talk 107stated these FACTS a week before the application was actually submitted. So unless you want to go down the road and say he lied then fair emough we could day the same about anyone when they make a statement and choose never to believe anyone. So it would be safe to say Petrie is lying about hibs building their new stand. It's all the same m8, you cant have it one way then the other.

What you need to remember as well is what team do the council leaders follow (Not that it will influence any decision im sure) and our first minister who does he support. Not saying in anyway that because they are HMFC orientated that will sway any decision but it may have helped in the planning process when there was communication between hearts and the council.

Would you spend hundreds of thousands of pounds on designs and hiring one of the best architects there is at designing football stadia for an application to be refused ona technicality or because some brick was going to be placed the wrong way? NO you consult with those you will be submitting the application to on each thing before submitting it

- overuse of "pouch", "gunts", "yams" and "ha-ha-ha-ha"
- claims to have been in various jobs including those of a lorry driver, bookie and policeman (we could also charge him on the grounds of impersonating a police officer)

If the court pleases, it is common knowledge that there were 150,000 Hibs supporters at that game, if you go by the number of people claiming attendance. I would purport Mr Mixu 6-2 was indeed at the game in the sense of this having become an urban myth. Actual attendance is therefore different, as such my client has no case to answer. As for his disgust at Tynecastle, or Swinecastle as it is known to the natives of edinburgh, such revulsion is indeed commonplace. Only last week the number of empty hearts supporters seats at the rangers game shows a dislike for the place generally.

Strong points indeed my learnerned friend.

Point a) Very possible as the mixu character has proven with his constant drivel he does in fact give all decent hibs fans a bad name and makes them look like rain man.

The death sentence??? My Lords, surely this is an outrage! My client does nothing more than speak the truth! In Mckinley versus Aubergiine there is clear precedent for a mans right to hold an opinion and speak his mind, or has this great country of ours gone the way of other despotic regimes such as Vladlandia?

I see on another thread that a criminal act was committed at Tynecastle (they wont let us comment on it though) and the chap has been found guilty. Since when was playing crap football a criminal offence, I move for a miss-trial.

361 - answering charge no.2.

Badboy and Genuis are two of the past names used by the creature known as Mixu 6-2.

He is also known to clone other posters with his trademark mis-spelling.

surely anyone can see that mixu has to plead insanity.it cannot be any other defence as he doesn't have a leg to stand on.it could hardly be a crime of passion as there is nothing for the hobos to be passionate about:)

"McGHEE insisted today he will remain as Motherwell manager "...he doesn't want the Hearts joab!!!!

McGhee is taking a leaf out of hibernian mgt's book and touting himself for bigger jobs than at Well,,and who can blame him.

Did you see him helping shovel the overspilled scum from the pitch last night on the news? He looked like a right rodney plonker with his shorts on.

So once agian, hertz are being used by folk to springboard their careers, about all they're guid for these days.

The chances of us finishing 7th is non-existent mate, and since Vlad has obviously forgotten you lot exist as an actualling playing football team I don't think you'll do better than 7th or 8th when the split comes.

And you know fine we didn't finish 7th last season, it was 6th!!!!

more to the point, Vlad sees Tynie as a property development and nothing more, he's probably too frightened to actually fly over for a game.
