Gordon DL

quite a few people, is the way he handled the Tavernier situation.

You know what I mean?

That showed lack of leadership for me.

But I can understand that Andrew Kavanagh come now because he was under pressure because he brought in Russell Martin.

He spent, what, 40 million, guts of 40 million.

So you're going to sack two managers in one year.

It's not going to look very good on you as new owners coming in and saying, we're going to take the club forward.

We'll make all the right decisions here.

It'll always hurt every single one concerned with Hearts, from players, staff, to everyone that supported them and thought the dream was there.

It snatched away at them right at the end, especially when they went 1-0 up with Shanklin.

So you're thinking, oh, this is the year it's going to be for Hearts.

So I can understand that.

Look...

that they gained Martin O'Neill the money that they needed John just as a certain man would you have went down a different route rather than Martin O'Neill because of maybe yeah it's a one year contract there's no future in that plan and it's well documented everybody talks about his age I detest that because he's just come off a double so it shows you he can still do a job would you have went down another route and tried to get a younger sort of a coach in to go forward

I think their problem is they've been burnt before when they tried that.

Everybody was crying out for, remember the situation, there was a couple of important games coming up.

Celtic fans were on saying, keep Martin O'Neill in the hot seat now and then Wilfred Nancy can come in after it.

The League Cup final was one of them.

It was the League Cup final.

So that was the way that Celtic were looking to go under.
