djchapsticks 5,345 Report post Posted June 13 (edited) Yeah. I can't remember ever taking umbrage with Darren Jackson. Indeed, he spent the majority of his career operating at a higher level then we were playing at, at that point. Don't really see the issue in this if he's come in as a coach.

Jackson revelled in the abuse he got as I remember it, but I gained a respect for him watching him play for Scotland and seeing just how hard he worked as a player.

Or am I making that up? We used to have a few on the blacklist: Darren Jackson Paul Hartley James Grady Ross Tokely Sam McGivern (I think.... can't remember his crime) and going back a few years...

djchapsticks 5,345 Report post Posted June 13 Also, I'm quite sure our head of youth development was roundly loathed by our support as an opposition player and revelled in the abuse dished out at him. I also reckon the majority on here will agree he's done a decent job since filling David Longwell's shoes. 5 Magic Monkey, SaintGlenburn, Buddie Marvelous and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stu 3,061 Report post Posted June 13 On the subject of goalies being injured, did Hearts not once have a guy called Baird who assaulted Campbell Money on a fairly regular basis?Anyway, appointing Jackson is a Stubbs masterstroke. All he has to do is ask him what McNamara or Locke would have done in a certain situation then do the exact opposite. Simple! 2 1 jaybee, Soctty and Slartibartfast reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You could probably list most of that 1986 Hearts side in fact. Its the St. Mirren specific villains that I'm after. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
