jw1739 Posted April 4, 2012 Report Share Posted April 4, 2012 I see that Ben Coonan, Heart's team manager, has left (or is about to leave) the club. So another vacancy at Heart HQ. Anyone know what he's moving on to? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Braveheart Posted April 4, 2012 Report Share Posted April 4, 2012 I see that Ben Coonan, Heart's team manager, has left (or is about to leave) the club. So another vacancy at Heart HQ. Anyone know what he's moving on to? Ben actually left about 5-6 games before the end of the season. Not sure who the new bloke is tbh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dynamo_Melb_Warrior Posted April 4, 2012 Report Share Posted April 4, 2012 What was the reason for him leaving, especially before the season had finished? May be drawing a long bow, but he seemed to be a decent part of the set up, was this anything to do with the problems had in the club that was rumoured?

The team manager isn't that integral insomuch as most of their work is quite menial tbh. Scheduling, transport etc. Im not sure where he went but i would bet he would have grabbed a similar role in a different code. That's the way it tends to be in sports admin.

Yeah thought it was a long bow. Understand Administrators shift and move, just heard some stuff that I might add, may not be true, that there was a bit of infighting so to speak, just wondering if this was some of the fallout. Oh well, not a hugely vital position. Best of luck Ben, thanks for almost 2 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dynamo_Melb_Warrior Posted April 4, 2012 Report Share Posted April 4, 2012 do my posts show up on this fucking forum or what? Yes I can see it.... Just kidding, sorry I missed your last one. All I will say is heard there was some infighting and disruptions, nothing too serious, that's all, and wondered if this may have been a result of it. As I and BH as said, probably making a big deal out of nothing so we can move on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marteaux Posted April 4, 2012 Report Share Posted April 4, 2012 Fucking hell. Ben Coonan is a great bloke and a full time funny cunt/troll/smartass. Club will be lesser without him. I have also head he has gone overseas but will enquire directly via twitter. Good luck on your European travels BC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tranerz21 Posted April 5, 2012 Report Share Posted April 5, 2012 BC a really nice bloke and always loved his cardigans, will miss seeing it on the sidelines Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingawesomeness Posted April 5, 2012 Report Share Posted April 5, 2012 Finished up his duties as team manager earlier in 2012 and assisted the new guy in taking the reins as well as instigating a number of competition and social media videos (ie. All the half-time entertainment, behind the scenes footage, commentary competition, etc). Was a massive, massive, massive presence at Heart, always a fantastic guy and will to take time out to chat with any and all comers and his professionalism and commitment will be sorely missed.
