Nisbet’s celebration

[HendoDelivered]

Interesting comments. Wonder what he means? https://twitter.com/scotlandsky/status/1647295607051272192?s=46&t=U3pADl1ON1Em2jgBrQBI8w

[18Craig75]

What was his celebration? Seemed like he just wheeled away and it wasn’t anything controversial?

Interesting he says he doesn’t forget…maybe something to do with the missed penalty in the semi during Covid? No idea!

[Torto7]

He ran over to the **** bench so maybe to do with that?

[Stairway 2 7]

People saying he ran to say something to Naismith but I didn't see it

[1875Sean]

Surely he means he was due then one as he’s not scored much against them?

[Diclonius]

Think there's something personal with Naismith.

[dp00]

Think there's something personal with Naismith.

Maybe explains the lack of Scotland call up ?

I sit directly behind the Hearts dugout and he ran along past them , eyeballing them with the biggest cheesiest grin you’ve ever seen. It was brilliant.:greengrin:flag:

[Cool_Hand_Luke]

He definitely directed it at someone in the hearts dugout…couldn’t tell you who it was though 👍

[silverhibee]

:agree:

No love lost between both of them, not Nisbets making that he has an absolute hatred for Naismith.

[HibeeMackenzie]

He made sure he ran right at Naismith, not sure what Sméagol done bud get it firmly up him regardless

[JohnM1875]

Dunno about the history of it. But he's absolutely spot on. We ****ing battered them!

Nisbet was brilliant. Did think his celebration was all in though! More of the same to follow

[Col2]

I think it comes back to Scottish cup semi which was delayed re COVID and behind closed doors. I remember Hibs were not happy with Naismith GIRUY stuff at the end and if I recall Nisbet missed a pen days after his father had passed away. Naismith is not a popular person with many in the game.

That's because he's a wee 🐀

[Johnny_Leith]

Nisbet is a superb player and could get to mcginn levels of career imo.

I know his attitude here and at other clubs has been questioned once there's been interest of new opportunities but what we saw yesterday was a fully fit and focused Nisbet and he was excellent. He could and probably would soon play at a higher level and score goal consistently as he's all the attributes and serious ambition.

[BILLYHIBS]

Pleasing even better that Steve Clarke was sitting in the Stand

Said to everyone that would listen yesterday to the point of being boring that Nisbet was real quality and would score against them

Hopefully his injury is not too serious

He looked fine at the end when players were doing lap of honour. He took a wee knock when through (and should have passed to Campbell). He was knackered as well. I am assuming he will be fine.

[LewysGot2]

There's one wee fly in the detective ointment...

If it was Rat Boy he was aiming at then that's the national team assistant to Clarke.

Gamble in itself if Rat Boy is as much of an erse as he appears. However, might be the reason Nissy says he better not comment on it.

What I saw yesterday was a happy Nissy. He's always looked a bit tortured and moody at times but yesterday we saw a happy, encouraging team mate who also showed his quality.

We'll need 6 more of those between now and the end of the season. He looks in a better place

[Stubbsy90+2]

Naismith is a ****ing ****bag.

[JimBHibees]

Don't think he is the assistant to Clarke but just a coach back up think Carver is Clarkes assistant. Steven Reid used to do the role Naismith somewhat bizarrely given his coaching credential seems to have got. Probably just happened to be at Oriam on the right day when Scotland team trained there.

[Stubbsy90+2]

What is the reason?

Been a suggestion that Naismith told Nisbet he’d let his dad down after he missed the penalty at Hampden.

[The Spaceman]

Been a suggestion that Naismith told Nisbet he’d let his dad down after he missed the penalty at Hampden.

Surely not - if so, fair play to Nisbet for not quoting that to the press. Disgusting if true, but Nisbet's comments are implicit he has been harbouring that for a while, so could be truth in it.

[JimBHibees]

If the case should have laid him out there and then.

Was great to see. He made a challenge just in front of the west that had Matty Jack levels of dig to it.

[Tambo]

Thought it was for the snubs from Scotland but shocking if that's true about Naismith.

10 goals in 13 now for Kevin after his return from injury.

[WeeRussell]

I can’t see it being anything to do with Scotland. He’s been called-up when deserved. And most likely be in next squad provided he’s fully fit.

[Tambo]

It does make sense now after his comments and then the posters on here was just at first I thought it was after missing the last squads after being in good form and players dropping out and Shankland getting the replacement call up.

Also he wouldn’t be making that decision

Technically no but no doubt has a bit of influence but looks like its all been cleared up 👍

[EskbankHibby]

Naismith is a glorified cone carrier in the national set up and he’s even under qualified for that role.

[Carheenlea]

Been a suggestion that Naismith told Nisbet he’d let his dad down after he missed the penalty at Hampden.

As unlikeable a character Naismith appears to be, I refuse to believe that even he would stoop as low into the gutter as that.

It’s simply an unthinkable thing for a normal human being to be uttering.

[Unseen work]

Not celebration relation but still find it incredible some people thihhht he shouldn’t start yesterday.

10 goals in 13 now.

Unbelievable return after long and tough injury.

Well done Nizzy!

[GGTTH07]

Don’t know how to post screenshots on here, but there is a picture of nisbet clearly upset after penalty miss in the semi final, and Naismith is in his ear. Definitely something in that rumour. Get it right up that horrible looking pr***.

This spell since his return from injury has been tremendous. He looks like a much more complete player. The best he’s looked since he first signed for us. Always had the intelligence but he’s doing stuff now that wasn’t great pre-injury - like being more of a nuisance in the air, better hold-up play. He also looks a bit quicker now to me as well. Would love him to be here next season but can’t see it unfortunately.

[JamesHFC]

Naismith has played for both of the hun brothers. Sums him up.

Absolutely, he had to start. Can’t drop players just because of their record against that team.

I was on the fence about it. He's class but his derby performances before yesterday was poor. Yesterday he had that Rowles laddie on toast.

Let's not forget, Myko is a brilliant forward too. He could easily have won it for us as well.

To be fair, the player he would have swapped with was big Myk, who I would expect to bully thier backline similarly.

However, Nisbet has come back from injury as some unit. I never really considered him to be a player with a great step up in him, but if he can regularly bully defenders like that, he's easy top end championship.

[Frazerbob]

Definitely not Scotland related. Nissy has a great relationship with Steve Clarke. When he was out injured, Clarke called him regularly and invited him along to join the squad for home games and was his guest at the games. He'll be in the next squad.

[Greenbeard]

Didn't think my dislike of Nasalsmith could be any higher. That is under review. Once a Hun always a Hun. Even more so if you drop down to play for the pseudo Huns.

[WeeRussell]

I think if LJ hadn’t started our best player and we’d lost to that hearts team this place would rightly have been going absolutely radge.

I was really pleased Nisbet got the goal he deserved after some question marks over previous derby performances. Great to see him enjoy it so much too.

[Hibs4185]

I think yesterday ended any debate about Shankland v Nisbet.

Shankland has failed abroad and found his level.

Kevin has the ability to push on higher.

No brainer who should be in Scotland squad first going forward

[21.05.2016]

Naismith suits hearts perfectly - utterly classless

Shankland without penalties is Paul Heffernan or Kris Doolan. Will get you 10 a season, maybe 12, a decent player.

Nisbet is a different level.

You can refuse to believe all you like, but it’s true…

[Since90+2]

That's horrendous if true. Naismith is a wee dick but I find that hard to believe even he'd stoop to that level.

I prefer to think of it as 10 goals from open play in the last 13. 🙂

Ha yeah that is also true, 84 Minutes per Goals.

Need to keep hold of him for next season.

[raeburnhibs]

.

the coverage of the goal from the East Stand side on Twitter is unambiguous; Kev definitely says something to Naismith as he passes the Jambos bench

[Diclonius]

This season...

Shankland: 22 goals in 42 games (10 open play, 12 penalties)
Nisbet: 10 goals in 14 games (10 open play, 0 penalties)

To be fair I would also agree I’d be surprised if Naismith stooped that low but then Nisbets comments/celebration could kind of be explained by such a comment from Naismith.

It’s been posted on here.

[Mikey_1875]

If he has said something then Naismith looks like he didn’t hear it. From that video he looks in conversation with his assistant and doesn’t even look up at him.

I was a big critic of Kevin Nisbet, he's been great since he's returned , happy to be proved wrong. Well done Kevin.

True, Naismith ignores or doesn't hear it (I'm going with ignores) but Kev's body posture changes right as he passes the bench which is I'd suggest a signifier of probably saying something

he certainly seems to have added some physicality to his game, regularly initiating contact and as 500miles says, bullying defenders.

when he burst through and should have squared to Campbell, in the buildup rather than jockeying rowles, he bangs him and forces him off the ball and off balance, giving him the opportunity to get past him and pick up the ball. did similar quite a few times.

It’s not something I think he did much of before, but now seems to relish.

[McD]

Didn't think my dislike of Nasalsmith could be any higher. That is under review. Once a Hun always a Hun. Even more so if you drop down to play for the pseudo Huns.


whilst he is a wee rat, I don’t think he did drop down with them, they hate him as he chose to object to his contract being transferred to the The’s, and walk away for nothing

that said, if he has said as what has been suggested, he has sunk to unspeakable depths

[scoopyboy]

Honestly, I’m right behind the duguout and watched him all the way, he just smiled at their bench whilst giving them the evil eye. Didn’t appear to say anything.

Naismith's an odious little sh*t and I feel there must be at least some truth in whats being said. What a disgusting thing to do, if true

[Mick O'Rourke]

A goal and passionate celebration to remember.

Barry Kevin,Barry:greengrin

[GRA]

When the line-up was announced I was surprised we didn't start big Myk and pin him against world cup superstar Rowles given his struggles in previous games.

However, Kev more than matched him with his movement and battling. He bullied him off the ball on more than one occasion. Great to see.

Yeah agreed, his football allegiances aside Naismith is a very decent bloke and I refuse to believe he said anything like that.
