Nisbet

[SHODAN]

Clearly upset with the abuse he has been getting with the goal celebration yesterday.

Can we get off his back now (I include myself in that) and support him along with the rest of the team? Put in a good shift yesterday and got a badly needed goal. Let's hope he kicks on from here.

Must be awful when players know they are getting abuse online and live .
Some would really need to be thick skinned. Some could well be affected mentally.
You would hope people would recognise this before spouting off abusive comments and bile.

Celebrities and sportspeople these days come in for some real bad stuff
Not like when i were a lad !

[blackpoolhibs]

It looked to me last night that it had the required affect, he worked hard, he held the ball up and passed it to a Hibs player, and to top it off he scored a goal.

I'm glad he realised supporters were not prepared to take his half arsed performances anymore, and he decided to do something about it.

Well don Kevin.:top marks

Fully agree with you,time to get supporting the guy.

How about not getting on his back in the first place and then preaching to others because he scored a goal.

[brog]

I was delighted for him. Hope he kicks on now.

[pacoluna]

Same celebration as when McGuire scored against Albania.

[The Harp Awakes]

We've all seen the ability Kevin Nisbet has and there's no doubt he has the potential to be a top player.

I think the fans frustration is that he sometimes looks disinterested and half hearted on the pitch. For me, he needs to work harder for the team and get far more involved in games.

Playing as the 1 in a 4-5-1 is a tough gig, but it's a common formation these days and if he wants to go on to play on a bigger stage he has add much more to his game.

[Stanton Spence]

He still has a bit to go but at least you could see he wanted to be on the pitch last night. Even after missing a couple of half chances he didn't let it affect him and he used the critisisim to fire him up which is all you can ask.

If qe don't perform at work our bosses are not shy to tell us...he can deal with it tbh

We're not his bosses. Imagine if a whole bunch of random folk appeared at your work and not only were they critical of your work but they also started to shout personal stuff and call you all sorts of things. I'm sure his real bosses have had words with him, but like at my work that will be kept between them
Anyway, well do e last night Kevin. Played well, worked hard and scored the winning goal

[JimBHibees]

Me too.

[Hibee Mac]

I agree with you that, whilst I've been critical of him in here, I'm right behind him if he's onboard with what we want to do.

As a side note, I don't think we need to imply that fans discussing players on a football forum (good and bad) is having some kind of direct impact on the players. Twitter and Facebook or any weirdos directly messaging him is a whole other story.... but he would need to go searching for stuff if he was looking on here for example.

U make out like fans are baying for his blood outside ER every week.. hes had a bit of stick online which he can easily ignore if he chooses too...he missed a sitter on Monday and again last night before his goal he's not immune to criticism. If he uses that to fire himself up then great but qe need to see it on a far more regular basis from him than the last 12 months that's for certain

Or his managers faith in him had the desired effect.

Does your boss boo you and talk about you on social media?

We are not his boss but we are in effect his customers, and if you don’t live up to your customers expectations then you can expect to hear about it.

I doubt it, the last manager had faith in him and he let him down too.

Folks really need to give the boy a break, some of the abuse he has suffered is beyond the pale.

I agree. My son was sitting behind the dugout yesterday and a nearby woman was shouting at him as he was getting stripped that he shouldn't be going on. That's just mental imo

[PPZPOL]

Play for the club like you care and the rest will take care of itself.

Martin Boyle and John McGinn did and it has done them no harm.

Played well when he came on last night and the tracking back to tackle Fyvie was immense. Keep up that work rate 👏🏻

[newmarket_hibbee]

One game or one goal will not change my tune. Lets talk in a few weeks. Those players are used to receiving stick from fans, we have all heard the abuse they receive, every week, even songs about them, at least on the net they can ignore. So no, jury is still out, ask me again next month.....and yes I do live overseas, but I do subscribe to HibsTV, so as a customer I have the right to call it as I see it.

Well good for you.

Hes been getting abuse for a while too. If you're logic worked, by god we'd have some team.

Maybe just a good footballer had a good game, not for the first time recently either.

3 million pound Boyle has 1 goal in 13 league games.

Nisbet has 4 in that time.

Maybe Kev isn't the big problem.

A hat-trick against Der Hun takes Boyler to four and very good it was too

Edit

Boyle has scored 14 :28 this season Nisbet 8 :28 in all competitive games

I clearly mentioned league matches. Our form in cups hasn't been up for debate this season, league form has.

I get that

Interesting that they have both played 28 games in total this season

Lies damned lies and statistics

Without penalties, its 8 goals each. Now thats an interesting statistic. Maybe if Kev took pens, he'd be away for 3 million

Last time he took one did he not miss?

It is actually 7 penalties

At least they went in

There you go. Kev isn't the best penalty taker for sure. Might be on them again now.

Missing a comma or two from that line you keep using for whatever reason.

You can call it as it is without being a tv watcher BTW. Me, I'll keep on encouraging from the terraces.

If you are reduced to correcting my grammar on a football forum I take it I win

Yes !

:na na:

Please check my previous 16000 posts I never use commas on here :greengrin

[Mutu]

His attitude has always been fine. Fans don't have a clue what theyre talking about.

[B.H.F.C]

“There was a great moment when the fans actually appreciated the work he did out of possession”

That was what Maloney said after the game and I think it shows folk just call what they see most of the time. If folk think you’re working hard, they’ll let you know and if they don’t, they’ll let you know.

Can show a bit more desire to get in on the end of things when we’re attacking as well, admitted as much himself after the game. If you look at most of his goals, they’re between the posts relatively close in. Needs to make sure he’s in there and if he is he’ll get more goals and folk will be happier with him.

Totally he got an ovation from fans for chasing Fyvie back to halfway line...yet according to some on here everyone hates poor wee Kev.. if he shows the correct desire and application the fans will get behind him...sadly that's not always been the case with Kev in last 12 months.

He needs to step up now we've lost our talismanic figure in Boyle so we will all get behind him I'm sure but he needs to show a much better attitude in matches when things aren't going his way

[Allant1981]

Does that mean as a fan you also dont have a clue!!

Bad players play badly most of the time, they dont need a kick up the erse.

He's been poor bar the odd exception for months.

3 million pound Boyle has 1 goal in 13 league games.

So what, he's a much better player than Nisbet.

Nisbet has 4 in that time.

Well done Kevin.

Maybe Kev isn't the big problem.

He is when he's not playing well.

[MWHIBBIES]

He is when he's not playing well.

Yeah, it really has been 10 great performances and Kevin all season.

Hes been an easy target since his transfer request last January. Thats all it is. Shame really.
