He shouted and screamed for everything today. He was lucky not to get a red. He has a face and personality you want to hook.

At the end of the day he is a loser.

Pleasing.

Dirty horrible hun *******! Deliberate stamp on Browns thigh and spends the whole game whinging and moaning.

Cretin.

[Since452]

Nasty, cowardly little hun welt.

[matty_f]

He’s a dirty wee prick that seems, for whatever reason, to be immune to red cards.

Would not be sad to see him on the receiving end of some of the stuff he dishes out.

[007]

Aye but he's a nice guy off the pitch and does a lot of good work for charidy (but he doesn’t like to talk about it). So that makes it okay ....apparently.

He refs the game mate. They seem seriously intimidated by him.

[The Harp Awakes]

Noising up the opposition, moaning at the ref and niggly fouls are all part of the game. Deliberately stamping on a player while he's on the deck though is classless.

He's got previous for this kind of stuff, but as others have pointed out, always seems to escape red cards.

[Hillsidehibby]

I hate the wee ****** just as much as the next man but why does no one take him out like they used to back in the day?
He's just a wee prick, I wouldn't get tired kicking him.

How he gets away with refereeing games and repeated stamps on opposition players is a mystery. Perfectly suited to that horrid club.

He does do good charity work but does talk about it.

BTW I bought a Big Issue yesterday. Gave the boy a fiver for a £4 magazine 😇

[green day]

I wonder if he will be hit with the compliance officer for the stamp?

He didnt get a card for it, just a yellow for elbowing Scott Brown later on.

Could be a retro red coming his way.

[Unseen work]

Not quite to the level/horrible streak of Naismith with his stamping etc but I think that’s the sort of player we’re missing.

I’m aware I’ll likely get slaughtered for this but he’d be a nightmare to play against and defenders would be on edge that they might get clattered every now and again. Also a good player and seems to really motivate and lead the hearts team.

[jacomo]

Imagine if we had signed him in 2007?

FWIW he’s always come across as a really decent guy away from the pitch. Personally involved in supporting others in Glasgow and Liverpool.

[Irish-Hibee]

I had a look on kickback (One of my favourite past times when they're ragin).

I love how the have a Scott Brown thread about how much of a terrible human being he is with terrible sportmanship, yet in the same thread post images of Naismith shouting into the face of an injured Johnny Hayes and another one of him stamping on Brown. Any posting how they wish he got a career ending injury :confused:

Absolute cavemen. "Brown wouldn't be allowed get away with that at hearts" Naismith gets away with it every week the weasel.

[Brunswickbill]

Likes a dive too, but so do all the Hertz players. He was clearly fouling the goalie at their second goal, nothing accidental about it, clearly a planned move. Goalie knocked over but ref does nowt.

[GreenCastle]

He’s seems to be in the Jim Goodwin mould.

Absolute thug on the pitch but actually away from the pitch a decent guy.

Compare to Hartley who is just an arrogant guy as a player and person.

Naismith does seem to do some sly stamps and general stuff which if you played 5 a side at the corn exchange it would wind you up let alone pro footballers who you think would know better.

While I wouldn’t want a Naismith or Lafferty type I do think Hibs need more bite to them and Newell and Mallan for example aren’t exactly going to scare the opposition. Gogic has helped but we need more bite if we are to improve.

[Jim44]

If he is a good guy away from the pitch, and I’ve no reason to doubt it, it doesn’t give him carte blanche to become a nasty bit of work on it. Seems to be a bit of a Jekyll & Hyde character.

[Since452]

Can't stand Naismith but wouldn't mind a player that winds up the opposition like that. Sometimes think we're too nice. Big Marv was probably our last wind up merchant. Every side needs one.

Clear as day but not a peep about it in the studio.

[Rumble de Thump]

It wasn't just a stamp on Brown's thigh. He then tried to stamp on his baws instead of moving away from him when they were both on the ground. Neilson had obviously instructed his players to assault the Celtic players - Brown in particular. The refs in Scotland really need to rid these sort of tactics from the game.

Kris Commons on Naismith:

The former Hoops forward told the Daily Mail that he felt Naismith was lucky to stay on the pitch after STANDING on Scott Brown while the score was locked at nil-nil in yesterday's Scottish Cup final.

Commons reckons that Hearts allowed bad feeling over their demotion to affect them in that opening 45 minutes against the Hoops and says Naismith was one of the main culprits.

He said: "Since they were demoted to the Championship back in the summer, there has been a huge amount of ill-feeling at Hearts over the way the situation was handled.

"Clearly, the feeling hasn't gone away. For the opening 45 minutes against Celtic yesterday, Hearts looked like a team blinded by emotion and anger.

"You had Steven Naismith tangling with Scott Brown and trampling all over the Celtic captain's knee as he lay on the ground.

"Naismith has history in this particular area. In May 2018, he was given a two-match ban for a stamp on Brown during a match at Tynecastle.

"He was extremely fortunate to stay on the pitch yesterday.

"It's bizarre because, away from the pitch, you genuinely couldn't meet a nicer boy. But he has a real nasty streak in him as a player.

"He overstepped the mark yesterday and it typified Hearts during the first half. Beyond the Naismith stamp, you had Andy Halliday getting booked for a wild challenge on Brown.

Very interesting comments, thanks for posting.

Those who have played the game (at any level) probably recognise the type who is a really decent guy away from the pitch but a total prick on it.

Absolutely doesn’t excuse him though. He should have got a straight red for that stamp on Scotty and perhaps a couple of other cautions too. Dirty wee bassa.

He did one yesterday, right in front of Beaton. He put his whistle to his mouth then played on because Hearts had possession. I was astonished, the Celtic player went right over Naismith & looked as if he could be hurt. Beaton was obviously going to wrongly award Hearts the free kick despite the fact that Naismith made no attempt to play the ball & potentially caused a serious injury. I genuinely can't remember Naismith actually doing anything football wise in the match but his fouls, his niggles & his histrionics were embarrassing, As was Beaton's failure to deal with it.

[Brunswickbill]

When Naismith intentionally stood on Brown’s leg he was looking to get a reaction. If Brown had responded in any way Naismith would have been down on the ground. He was hoping to get Brown sent off. Premeditated and the action of a cheat. Always looking to dive. Goes over when he’s tackled in or near the penalty box. If he doesn’t get a foul awarded he plays on , nothing said, it’s just become part of his game.

The last thing we need is someone like Naismith. I much prefer the players we have who are sitting in another cup semi final and 3rd in the league, on an 8 game (I think) unbeaten run.

Hibs players wouldn't get away with that level of sh*thousery he brings.

Do you think Hearts would have been relegated had he been fit through out? I don't
?

He's a player who has been prone to long spells out with injury in recent years so it was always unlikely they were going to get a full season out of him. If he was younger and less injury-prone he wouldn't be at Hearts.

Give him the job now please.

Preston was already starting the Naismith oot campaign after the game. Claiming in fact he should never even have been in.

[LithgaeHibby]

His post-match comments were the stuff of fantasy. Wonder which game he was watching.

I missed it, what did Nisbet do during his celebration? Was it in front of Hearts' bench and Naimsith?

Still can't quite believe he came out with putting in a good performance "win, lose or draw" pre-match.

That's an atrocious approach to an Edinburgh derby and indicates a massive underestimation of what's required. Would he be saying that as Rangers manager before an OF game?

His pre-match interview gave me massive cause for optimism. Finishing third isn’t the be all and end all as it’s important to him to introduce a style of football and bring through youngsters?! He only had 7 games left, it’s only about winning now so his take on that was mental.

He also struggled to communicate clearly and came across like he was a bag of nerves. I would be very surprised if he was a good, assertive, clear communicator.

What a clown.

Came in thinking he would get an "instant reaction." (oh what a banner that would have made).

This week he threw Neilson under the bus several time with his comments in the media about playing front foot etc.

Oddly he's said also said...

"Finishing third in the Premiership for a second successive season would be "nice" for Hearts but is not the "be all and end all".

He then thinks that having managed the Hearts B team in the lowland league - (the same Hearts B team who got pumped 4-0 by Stirling University today....) that he has the divine right to win today.

He will be hurting tonight and he will never forgot his 1st ever official game as manager for Hearts.

He was being a dick on the sidelines too - you would think he had won the Champions League.

Going to be glorious hopefully watching him fail as a manager.

[GreenNWhiteArmy]

He'll no see out the season

If I was a jambo (thankfully I'm not) alarm bells would be ringing following his "3rd place isn't the be all and end all" considering his sporting director was saying they could split the OF earlier in the season

He's clueless. Just unfortunate we've ran out of games for them to finish bottom 6

Stabbed neilson in the back for that?!?!

Loser.

[Spike Mandela]

He’ll never be a manager. He was pacing about the technical area , talking to himself at times, shouting at his bench, shouting and finger pointing at Hibs management team and generally just being an uptight knob.

File career under fleeting.

[Hibby70]

He's a horrible wee snake and is totally inept.

Hope he gets the job permanently

Needs time. Too soon to judge him after just one game.

Promising start though.

[Since452]

They've made a mistake sacking Neilson. Shame..

[Dashing Bob S]

His delusional comments are massively entertaining. His attempts to cast us as aggressive long ball merchants using spoiling tactics to subdue a naturally silky, free flowing Hearts were delivered with a complete absence of irony.

I think he knows he’s not got what it takes and is basically having a laugh.

[Carheenlea]

What happened on the touchline which resulted in Naismith and Johnson receiving yellow cards?

I never saw what happened apart from Beaton striding over to flash the yellow at both.

The fact he even mentions us as being direct and aggressive goes to show that we have gotten under their skin.. They wont know what approach to go with in the next derby which could be just around the corner. Do they match up and go toe to toe , or do they persist in their mission to be the Gorgie galacticos. Just goes to show how quickly things can change in football. I honestly think they could be about to hit a major downward spiral , players on big dough, player unrest , and i think it’s reasonable to think they could be Looking for a replacement for Robbies replacement come this time next year.

They seem from the outside to have been crusing along nicely and building blocks and gathering momentum. In reality , they done their best to absolutely ****ing hammer any happiness, success, togetherness right out of Gorgie

Nothing would give me more pleasure than watching these morons trump us in sacking a manager after a 3rd place finish and cup finals , to go on the constant manager hunt , whilst signing dud after dud .. The most amusing part is that they had the benefit of watching us making an absolute arse out of being in an amazing place , best in a generation , and they co and copy us 😂

And for the record i wasnt a jack ross fan , wanted rid by the end . But i realise the mistake in hindsight, and the theme of making mistake after mistake on the back of sacking the manager

Not sure either but that’s Johnson’s fifth yellow of the season, another three and he receives a two match ban. Unlikely to happen between now and the end of the season though you expect.

He’s actually got a bit of history with touchline bans. The next job he takes in England he will have to serve his first four games in the stands for something that happened at Sunderland.

They were obsessed for years that we didn't win the Scottish Cup, then we won it. Neilson has been sacked twice since then. They still blame him. Who would have thought that such a dismall record, that haunted us, is now haunting them, and it will for a long time if not forever. Oh ma ****in achinng sides.

He technically wasn't sacked by them first time round (unless you mean in his career, in which case he has been sacked twice since we won the cup, just not twice by Hearts). It was a bit of a similar situation with Bobby Williamson with us though whereby the clubs were delighted when Plymouth and MK Dons came in for them (without us hiring planes, of course)
