class club coach football sir
Sir Clive has been a world class coach in a different sport...but at the end of the day I think with any football club it's a team.
boy club
I feel for the boy but the club has to come first,
class club coach football help looked people response smashing sports team work
It's a smashing club and the response I've got from people has been very positive. Clive is a world class coach in a different sport. He's looked at different sports but any football club is a team working together, not an individual. Being able to work with Clive can only help me and Southampton.
ability best bring club guy lad polish smashing unable
The Polish guy was a lad I really wanted to bring to the club because he has smashing ability but unfortunately we've been unable to prise him away. He is a top-class player. One of the best in Poland.
absolutely both changing club coming compared couple difference enjoying everyday far free given hearts months mr past picking role routine running team training transfer
I get on very well with Mr Romanov and we have a workable relationship. We're both coming from the same place - and that's to make Hearts successful. The only difference compared to what I'm used to is in transfer dealings. I can live with that. My everyday routine running this club is absolutely fine. I'm really enjoying it as far as training matters, picking the team and changing things on and off the field. I've been given a free role and feel we've come a long way over the past couple of months on and off the field.
club good left position
I left the club in as good a position as it ever has been in,
certain last missed players transfer
We missed out on certain players during the last transfer window, which was disappointing,
certainly left match options rangers risks taking
We do not have too many options left and we certainly won't be taking any risks with the Rangers match so close.

We don't think there is any ligament damage but there it's a setback for the lad.

We are trying to strengthen the squad as much as possible. There are a number we are still looking at for January and we will have to wait and see how things develop but I am hoping to improve things as we still have a wee bit to go.
chairman spoken
I've spoken to the chairman (Rupert Lowe) about it and Theo is going nowhere.
concern difficult face game hard main major operation options players situation starts successful work
The situation is a major concern for us. We face a very difficult game without one of our main players and we don't have a lot of options in that area. Roman's operation was successful but the hard work starts for him now.
public response
The response from the public has been fantastic.

Roman took a kick on his foot and won't make tomorrow night and we will have to wait and see how the others are later in the week,
