If I see him in the Caley I'll buy him a pint.

On SSN gone to Hearts on a one year deal


I thought he signed for Hearts several days ago. It must have just been rumoured and I took it as done.

You could have beaten the bookies there Damo!

Has left Hearts by mutual consent.  Shame it didn't work out for him, but at least he wasn't the type to just hang around and take the money.

How did his missus take the news, lambaste the club on social media?

He's probably coming back at this rate.

I thought he was doing well up there? Could be a money thing.

I thought letting him go was the right thing to do in the summer. In hindsight I think we'd have benefitted from having him in the squad. Inexperience in a lot of games has been a big problem and not having a shitter of a player like Glenn (in a nice way) to just steamroll some opposition players at key times to see games out. I'd have brought him on and sat him in front of the back four in those games it looked like we were getting overrun and we had nothing to counter the inevitable.

I don't think letting him go was the problem, not replacing him with a younger similar type, that's the problem.

Did well for the first few games but then went off form.  Reading Twitter their fans seem very pleased to be shot of him.
