  5. Jefferies rejects Hearts role as Sergio takes over Jim Jefferies has left Hearts with immediate effect after rejecting the club's offer of a new role as director of football. The 60-year-old was removed as manager on Monday after an 18-month spell and is being replaced by former Sporting Lisbon coach Paulo Sergio. The Portuguese met the Hearts squad on Tuesday morning. Jefferies was in his second spell as boss, having previously managed the Edinburgh club between 1995 and 2000. Jefferies told the club website: "Even though I'm disappointed at leaving the club and everyone knows my strong connection to Hearts, I'd like to thank the club for the opportunity myself and Billy have had in the last 18 months. "I also appreciate the offer to develop in a new role at Hearts, however it has perhaps come too soon and it might be something that I would consider at a later date." Club owner Vladimir Romanov was at Tynecastle on Sunday to see Hearts lose 1-0 to Dundee United, having started the season with a pair of 1-1 draws - at Rangers in the SPL and at Paksi in the Europa League. Assistant manager Billy Brown has been sacked, while first-team coach Gary Locke's position is under review. Romanov's seven-year tenure at Tynecastle has been littered with managerial casualties including John Robertson, George Burley, Graham Rix, Valdas Ivanauskas and Anatoly Korobochka. Jefferies was appointed boss at Hearts for the second time on 29 January, 2010, after the departure earlier that day of Csaba Laszlo and led the club to third place in the SPL last season. However, they are without a win in 11 games since beating St Mirren 3-2 on 19 March. Former Hearts chairman George Foulkes, who left his post less than two weeks after Burley's departure in protest at the Tynecastle club's decision to part company with chief executive Phil Anderton, was disappointed by the announcement. He said: "I am shocked at the decision and the timing of it, with the second leg of the Europa League qualifier this week "But I have come to expect the unexpected with Vladimir Romanov. "If he comes up with a replacement who is generally accepted to be brilliant, then I'm sure the Hearts fans will rejoice but the record of past managers doesn't give much hope." Sergio, who has never managed outside his native Portugal, lost his job at Sporting in February, following Europa League elimination at the hands of Rangers.

  6. Well they are looking at cheapest and most expensive adult ticket so your (fake) student ticket is immaterial. Equally I guess you had a steak pie and not a scotch pie hence the extra pennies.
  7. A comparison of ST prices would be interesting as well as I'm sure we are usually at the cheaper end

  9. It beggars belief really However Hearts apparently haven't won since March which sounds pretty bad but then the were so far clear in no-man's land in 3rd they had little to really play for. Bet all these players JJ signed in the summer are fucking raging.

  14. Is it any worse than having in their Trophies Won section? http://www.heartsfc.co.uk/page/TrophiesWon/0,,10289,00.html
  15. Those travelling from the North may be quicker travelling on the new M74. Turn off the M80 onto the M73 then follow the M74 for Glasgow SE. Continue on the M74 till it joins the M8 at Ibrox. With the new M80 also apparently up to speed now there may not be much in it on a Saturday afternoon but as you'll know if there are any problems on the Kingston Bridge or at Charing Cross your stuck in a traffic jam for a good while. The new M74 however has been free flowing every time I've been on it.
  16. Some guy on 5Live this morning was suggesting (and promoting) the idea that within 10 years no sport will be on the BBC. He said the Licence fee should be spent on good Drama, Documentaries and the like rather than sport. He also suggested that Sport was just too great a cost for a public service broadcaster and that a lot of it was only of interest to a small minority (although surely the BBC should be about much more than mass popular entertainment otherwise it's just a race to the bottom....or The Only Way is Essex as it's known). I wonder how true that is but it increasingly seems the BBC will only be showing the reserved events (Cup finals etc) and real minority sports like bowels and swimming (which has been excellent this week btw, although Team GB will be hoping for a lot better in 12months). Alternatively would they ever have a BBC Sport channel with a top up fee or your Licence Fee? Or would that really be the end of the BBC?
  17. Andy Gibson? Was he assistant with McLeish at the huns or am I thinking of someone else?
  18. Knew I'd missed someone out. Just shows how big a club afc still are, being able to set up all these links with clubs around the globe
