Where are they performances in the league then?
We looked at that stage like we were a proper outfit again, should’ve known better.

Don’t think we should be going off our heads at not getting 3rd first time of asking but we should at the very least be competitive at that end of the table.
You look at the teams up there and they aren’t that great, Aberdeen not as good as they used to be, already beat that hibs team, livi doing v well with a limited group of players. With the players we’ve got and the level they’re meant to be I think being competitive with those teams is the minimum expectations for me. Imo it would be pretty pathetic to go into next season happy to finish behind these teams. I think pretty much every fan of Scottish football (outside OF) would be envious of some of the players we’ve managed to secure and you hear pundits like si ferry talk us up about how we’ve got one of the best squads in the country.
We’ve been taking it slow for years, constantly in transition and building towards something that doesn’t come. I’m sick of that, we’ve been patient enough. Our squad is good enough to do it so I think it’s time for them to deliver.

I don't really agree with the idea that we should spend a few seasons finishing 6th just to find our feet.
Get a decent manager in, sign some proven players and aim for third.

Don't think he's the wrong choice as such, but there are definitely alarm bells ringing.
It's not a great squad we've assembled, but it's one that should be dominating games and keeping it tight at the back. Its not like we've had to dip into the youth team for players. In fact, Irving is pretty much the only youngster he has any sort of interest in.
No quick fix here, sadly.

Hearts are perennial underachievers.

"We should be aiming for one or two years mid table to steady the ship" is exactly why we never do anything of note. The complete lack of ambition from the boardroom right down to the fans is what holds a club like Hearts back.

If it was easy to just cut half the squad loose then I could see the arguments for going straight for 3rd but the rot in that squad is contracted for 3-4 years.
It’s going to take a couple seasons to sort it all out and that’s hoping that Macho Man gets a good hit rate on his signings.
