When it goes wrong Levein has no one to blame. The payers brought in are his. How long has he been waiting to get rid of Cathro and move in?
He has been de facto hearts manager for a long time now.

Where does the dislike of Levein come from? Purely his poor record as Scotland boss or is there more to it? I've quite liked him since he called out McCurry for his Ibrox performance in the title run in 2007-08, I always felt the light he shone on refs for the remainder of the season worked in our favour. Wasn't too bad at Hearts first time around, good spell at Dundee United either side of a failure in England (Leicester?).

They should appoint Cathro as DoF just for a laugh.

I certainly don't mind him. No doubt someone will be along to tell us some obscure reason why we should hate him.

Long punts up the field, big striker making runs from out wide to the central area not to challenge for the high ball, but to knock the CB clearing it off balance, thereby winning a throw in 30 yards from goal.

That's his game plan.

It'll be great to see him back.

He's an absolute bellend. His hatred of celtic is well known,regardless of his anti McCurry rant.

Most probably Budge told him the DoF didnt work out and there'd be only one job from here on
which was his if he wanted it and some kind of trial period to go with it!

Levein would be mad not to try and keep himself in a job especially when Cathro was long gone!


So I'm thinking anyway!

No argument that his tactics and preferred type of player have more in keeping with Tony Pulis that Pep Guardiola, but that is hardly unique in Scotland. I would expect he will also turn Hearts into a team that won't be losing 5+ goals to us at Tynecastle and could challenge Sevco for third.

Is it just that he is seen as the poster boy for the blood and snotters aspect of Scottish football, or does he previous with us that I've missed.

Whatever folk think of him as a person, Levein's record as a club manager in Scotland is fine; certainly more impressive than any of the other guys linked with the post. Did well with Hearts and Dundee Utd, and in the lower leagues with Raith and Cowdenbeath. Was a nightmare with Scotland where his arrogance and tetchy manner was totally ill-suited for the scrutiny which comes with international football and you fact you need to motivate players you've only spent a few days with. But he'll get Hearts organised and cut out the silly defeats they've become accustomed to recently.
