Hearts exit Conference League on a dreadful night in Europe

[@VadersGhost]

Lads, as a Blackpool fan let me just tell you Critchley is one of the biggest frauds in the business. Get him out of your club as quickly as you can. I get the squad you have isn’t great but he’s going to destroy the players you do have that have anything at all. He’s read things in a manual and it doesn’t translate to the field. It’s eerily similar to listen to what you guys are starting to say about him. He infuriated us at the end. Good luck. You’re gonna need it.

[@johngillan9648]

If Critchley thinks Boyce is anything other than a useless a has been he also needs to go and take Budge with you

[@spicerzynk]

Critchley has to take blame starting the midfield…combined height is about 5ft

[@mikebannerman72]

Guys, there is one common denominator in all of this and it goes back to Levein, Cathro, McPhee, Stendal, Neilson and Naismith, Ann Budge. I heard Levein talking recently to Si Ferry, he said before he was sacked he walked into the room and Budge was crying, if that doesn’t send out red flags then what does? this is why the club is weak from top to bottom and the first team has zero ruthlessness, you’re a product of your environment.

Dhanda is pish. Couldnae cross his legs and yet took every set piece almost. Absolutely gash. Forest should never put on a 1st team top again. BUDGE OUT MCKINLAY OUT

So I travelled all the way from Oulu in Northern Finland to watch the game .... Oh boy 😅 In the Tynecastle stand, it was clear to me that my fellow fans were exasperated. Obviously there were a few who were angered, but it was also just frustrating to watch. Me and my mum spent 20 minutes arguing over the colour of Oyegoke's boots rather than watching the game it was that bad. I've been really having a hard time watching the performances recently and can't understand why some players continue to get starting roles. My mate was telling me that a lot of the players have given up and downed tools. If that's the case, we need them gone asap so we don't get relegated. Regardless of my concerns about Critchley, the board needs to take some accountability for this and I'm extremely frustrated with the communication from the Foundation too. They have to accept that something needs to be done immediately.

[@basscom77]

We go 2-1 up and then sit back 🤦

[@k0sm1cVRFS]

That was the most infuriating part! We finally played well for 15-20 mins and as soon as it started working and went 2-1 up we sat back instead of going for a 3rd goal😡😢

[@stevewilson6488]

Last nite the team did at least show a bit more fight and determination but this just highlights the fact that we are a terrible team and most of these players are just not good enough. I feel sorry for Penrice who is head and shoulders above the rest of them.

[@spicerzynk]

Imagine leaving a team that got relegated to move into a team that’s going to get relegated

[@brianreid98]

Critchley has lost the dressing room already and lose on Sunday and hard to see a way back for him

[@johnthomson3070]

Hearts are a complete joke, but just look at that hotel. Budge out.

[@keithglasgow5146]

Their goal was offside and their penalty wasn't. Dodgy officials yet again. Gordon doesn't command his box, Rowles misses 3 free headers to score, it all adds up. Every corner was identical and easy to defend. Too many hangers-on and we need a clear out from top to bottom.

[@basscom77]

@@keithglasgow5146 Gordon was poor but Halkett let the scorer for first goal just peel off. None of them should be anywhere near the first team in a normally run football club

[@mikebannerman72]

They said the referee was Italian is the correct because I watch Serie A every week and he’s not an Italian top flight ref?

[@keithglasgow5146]

@@mikebannerman72 Sure it was the VAR team that were Italian and the ref from (possibly) Czech Rep. but either way, the goals were as dodgy as the other recent game.

[@DavidBond668]

The leadership of Hertz reminds me of Nicola Sturgeon and Hamza.

[@rodlawson160]

A lot of passengers in this team who seem lack any urgency ,passion and imagination,massive changes needed! Critchley’s credit is running out rapidly. If we lose in the derby to an absolutely pish Hibs team then surely his job will be in jeopardy.

[@8busby]

We are shocking, i detest the lot this team, the board , mckinlay . Penrice and Devlin apart That team were about the same as Morton. The manager has got us out of Europe, and bottom of the league. Another dud , that plays eye bleeding football with shite players.

[@williebauld1007]

Make no mistake we are heading for relegation and NC is not the manager to take us to safety

[@craigkerr2667]

Can we change the podcast name to "Hearts Substandard"? I think it'd be more descriptive of reality.

[@Daniyal731]

Not going to tynecastle again this season that was a waste is money

[@spicerzynk]

It’s a mugs game funnelling money into tynecastle atm

[@alannorman1773]

The same old stuck record of a story again and again. Whole new approach needed as well as a clear out of too much dead wood then we can go again. HHGH.

[@SFJambo]

Joel looks like an extra outa day after tomorrow 😁 gotta be really cold there

[@keithramsay3340]

embarrising, that's a bit strong

[@kennethlawrence8680]

If we hadn't missed a pen in the other games we would have gotten through also if Rowles had bulked up in the summer he could have scored with the 3 chances he had.

[@Col-n7o]

Boyce was more concerned with crossing himself three times than playing.
