Utah Owl Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 The only sad thing about both Clare & Hirst isn't necessarily that they are on a fast track to oblivion, after all it's what happens all the time in football. No the sad thing is that in typical Wednesday fashion we missed a chance to make decent money out of the pair of them! Will we ever learn? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BIG D Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 Hirst scored the other night. Not bad, 2 goals in the Belgian Z League and its not quite Christmas yet. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torryowl Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 amazing …...everyman and his dog are calling jos the worst manager ever but when a young player manages to get away from him he gets slaughtered for doing so …….do fans think he should have stayed for jos to work his magic and bring out the best in him ?

owlinexile Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 We got carried away with Sean on the back of a couple of good performances. The same with Penney this year. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 Got a mate at work who’s a Hearts supporter, doesn’t get to every game but he’s seen Clare a few times this season and been less than impressed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SallyCinnamon Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 Clare shot himself in the foot. His agent stirring up Premier League interest and his hashtag 'SeanFlair'. Went to Hearts with a lot of expectation, when really all he has achieved so far is a decent loan spell in League One and a good game against Aston Villa. Hearts thought they'd signed a wonderkid, fact is he has a bit of ability and is still raw. Regardless bet he'd rather be at Hearts than playing at this basket case club.

Remind me again, how many goals had Hirst scored in the first team squad playing in a proper adult team and how many minutes had he actually played? For the money offered, we should have bitten their hands off, but hindsight and all that. As for Clare club must have known his capabilities and anything reasonable (probably over 6 figures) should have been accepted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Wall Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 We obviously handled the situation very badly, but the club would have been slaughtered if they'd taken the offer for Hirst. At the time, it was a mere formality that he would be England's record goal scorer and multiple champions league winner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edinburghowl Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 Absolutely diabolical again on Friday and arguably the worst player in a dreadful second half performance. He is yet to even have a half-decent game for Hearts, he has been poo pretty much every single game he has played in, he has the heart of a mouse, and from what we’ve seen so far he can’t even do the basics right. Currently nowhere near good enough for Hearts, amazingly Levein keeps persisting with him, and in my opinion (and many other Hearts fans) he shouldn’t be anywhere near our first team. He has been that bad I would send him out on loan in January. I appreciate he has had injury problems but he has shown nothing and not even a sniff of a flash of ability. Signed on a big 3 year contract and I have no confidence he will end up making it. Grim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grim That right mate? I thought I'd read it was a 1-year deal with the option of additional years - I remember thinking he'd edging his bets and using Hearts for decent move down south next summer.
