Naismith

[CMurdoch]

Needs knee surgery again. Out for 2 months.
He is their best player and motivator.
Can see their slump continuing now and us easing past them before the split if we can keep our **** together

Not sure, unfortunately.

He's not been on great form recently anyway, apparently.

They'll probably get at least a draw at the weekend and will (again) probably get to the SC Semi-final next Tuesday.

We will have to beat the Huns tomorrow to keep our own momentum going, before worrying too much about that lot.

Tend to agree with you but he is a massive character in their team due to his prickish nature which they'll sorely miss in this stage of the season no doubt.

[Diclonius]

Big boost for us ahead of the derby. Their best player by a mile.

[Kojock]

Out for two months, who's going to referee the games in the meantime??

Will be a miss for Scotland

Potter starting early with his "injury depleted squad" mind games again.

Nah they'll pick Burke and two guys down south from the lower leagues who can't get 1st team football.

[HFC93]

Massive blow for them. They look a far better team when he plays.

What's happened to the Czech guy they signed?

The bit in bold. They've practically been given a bye into the final.

[CRAZYHIBBY]

Don't think he was properly over the last injury when this new injury occurred.
Like you I have been told he hasn't been back to top form but is still very influential. I think it will be detrimental to their chances of keeping ahead of us.
They have 2 away league games away at Dundee & Hamilton and we have Rangers & Motherwell at home.
We need to beat Motherwell and have a free punch at Rangers and hope they don't win both.
Hopefully after that we can set about closing the gap on both Hearts and Kilmarnock.

He turned up fat and unfit.
Potter went mental and he has been on the fringes ever since.
Mostly playing in the reserves.
They have 6 strikers but none of them are close to being as good as McNulty.

According to a Jambo he looks bad. Really, really bad. :agree:

He's a great bloke with a genuine social conscience.

[calumhibee1]

He's a great bloke with a genuine social conscience.

Which is instantly negated by running round acting like an arse, slagging off guys with serious injuries on the pitch.

[007]

Karma.

The exact word that sprung to my mind too. It's a bitch.

[Crab apple]

Gutted.

[Davy Mac]

It's amazing what happens when there is some cost cutting going on ;-)

[Zazu62]

He deserves all he gets tbh

[Sir David Gray]

He may well be a nice guy off the park, he's a nasty piece of work on the park though. Really horrible character.

[ozhibs]

That's a shoe in :-)

This.

[ian cruise]

Craig Bellamy has done plenty for charity, including donating at least a million pounds of his own money and raising many millions more. He sponsors sports teams in the UK and a Sierra Leone charity. He's also shown himself to be quite unlikeable on many occasions.

Good deeds do not always make you a good person. I'm not sure what Naismith is like off the pitch but he certainly doesn't do his reputation any favours on it.

[Brightside]

He's a great bloke with a genuine social conscience.

He's a horrible wee bigot and a stain on society. If he could get away with it he'd be attending Orange Marches.

[Jim44]

To be honest, I think that being part of football is a bit like showbusiness and often moulds certain unsavoury and unlikeable characteristics. I would like to think that their actions off the pitch are truer pointers to the type of people they really are, but it doesn’t stop me from detesting Naismith the footballer. I hope he gets over his bad injury in time to enjoy his summer holidays.:greengrin

[heretoday]

Billy Bremner was an OK wee guy off the pitch but a devil as a player.
Same with Naismith. I wouldn't have minded if he'd come to us. Or Bremner for that matter!
Do you want all your players to be Bobby Charltons?

[MWHIBBIES]

Doesn't matter unless we turn up. Our performances at Tynecastle have been disgraceful recently.

[CMurdoch]

He's a horrible wee bigot and a stain on society. If he could get away with it he'd be attending Orange Marches.

Based on what?

[The Spaceman]

Gutted for him and wish him a speedy 50 year recovery.

That couldn't be further away from his character.....

Hope Hearts sign him long term.

Billy very nearly came to ER. Was homesick.We bid 25 k. Leeds initially accepted then wanted another 5k. Stayed at Leeds, broke into first team and the rest is history. Billy & Pat in the same team...,,, wow, imagine.

I’ve seen nothing to suggest he’s that sort of person and by all accounts he’s a nice guy in real life with a social conscious.

Hearts will go all out to try and sign the cheating Norwich / EPL reject, even though he's an injury prone cheat. You have to ask why Norwich didn't like him.... Hmmmm

Big decision for them.
3 knee injuries in 5 years
If they sign him and pay him £8k a week and the knee goes again in October they will be screwed.
Big gamble and one i wouldn't like us to take based on his age and injury record.

[green day]

He was well liked at Norwich, very successful and the fans loved him - however the thinking was that he was not quite sharp enough now at their level, wouldnt really play much last season or this, and from his family perspective, a move back to Scotland would be handy.

That from a Norwich fan of my acquaintance.

p.s. I dont really disagree with what you have said - Its nice he does stuff for charity, but lots of people do and still manage to behave like a decent human being on the pitch (Lewis Stevenson for example).

Given that Uche "folk hero" Ikpeazu has scored about one goal in 10, you can see how important Naismith is to them.

Without him, they are pretty one dimensional and rely completely on Uche knockdowns to midfielders - mind you, that sounds pretty much like Leveins wet dream tactically.

[Brightside]

What a bizarre post.

Not really. Plenty people involved in football talk about his bigot views. But im sure he does lots for charity so hes really a nice boy.

[blackpoolhibs]

With all this spare time he now has, perhaps he can have a damn good look for his missing legs.

[Zazu62]

See they’ve just signed a left back

Hell of a post this morning from you, without substance I venture?

Very strange one even for Crocks of Midlothian.
The guy has barely played for the last 6 years and appears not to have played any matches since January 2017!

i did pause a bit thinking Shankly was maybe a possibility but didn't know about the latter ones, every days a school day, wonder when we will get one outside the West Stand at ER, the Famous five, joe Baker,Pat Stanton, Tam McCourt, Dominic Malonga..

I’d be surprised if that was true

Not saying he doesn’t wind opposition fans and players up, but as far as I know he has been committed to causes such as anti- racism (which he spoke out about recently) and anti- bigotry

loved jimmy, the problem is when you start adding jimmy to the pat stanton statue:greengrin imo we then maybe need add-ons like alan gordon, snoop john B, erich schaedler, crops, john brownlie, maybe even alex edwards........we're actually getting in to the list is endless territory :greengrin

To be fair on Underscore I have heard that as well. Do remember he did a lot for the homeless in Liverpool as well.

[Iggy Pope]

At Maine Road. They had a kiosk on the concourse named after him.
I think Selkirk were working on a statue?

I also reckon Matt Busby is a well celebrated and former Hibernian marked forever at Old Trafford.
