Robbie Neilson usually gets his man.
He wanted Craig Gordon back at Tynecastle. He tried for years to achieve this.
In the end, he succeeded.
Robbie tracked Barry McKay for years, trying to sign him.
Eventually, Barry was persuaded to sign for Hearts. He has now committed to the club for years to come.
Both of these men are players who cannot be bettered in their positions in Scottish football.
Hearts supporters know this – and appreciate the difference this has made to the quality of football Hearts bring on the pitch.
There are other players in the same category at Tynecastle – and there will be more added during the Summer.
Robbie Neilson has plans behind 3rd in the Scottish Premiership, plans that go beyond winning Cups.
Robbie wants to bring the Premiership title back to Edinburgh.
Craig and Barry can be part of that miracle – and more players will be drawn in as they realise the 37 season domination of Scottish football by Rangers and Celtic can be ended.
It will take time – perhaps several years – but the path is clear and the goal can be achieved.
BELIEVE.
