If he can't get a game for a mid table Championship team is he such a great signing for Hearts ? They have had a bit of overload in his position. Injuries too when the new manager came in and a hulk of a contract they would probably be happy to end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taking this place as a cross section of the support there is so much negativity. End of he will of been asked questions like you say Sir Gio his words then interpreted and some direct quotes so suit how it will sell a paper. Were a club on the up , rebuilding after a year to forget bar a couple of smashings of the OF really. We should be being positive not denouncing anything that could be good for the club. Laff aint coming , Berra aint coming. Were getting relegated etc. I was a kid at dens in 86 and that was heartwrenching and devastating. We nearly disappeared just a few years ago. This negativity is ludicrous. Big picture people. More and more we become an attractive place for players to come to. At least to a certain level/stature or point of their career both beginning and end. Financially , these guys need somewhere to progress after they stop playing so temper a lower wage with coaching opporchancities ? and thats very attractive Contender for post of the day.

Hopefully we haven't put all our efforts into this one. Now at the mid point of the month and a few days away from our biggest game of the season, we don't have terribly much tangibly to show for it Obviously things can change quickly. But time is clearly moving on I said earlier in the week, if we don't get him for the derby, I'd probably rather we didn't get him at all. He'll cost a fortune, one way or another, even on loan, and I'd much rather wait till the summer and have a proper structured transfer window where we get rid of dross and fill in the gaps properly, just for once. If we get him this week. Fine. Delighted. Could make all the difference on Sunday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elshin Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 3 hours ago, Jamhammer said: This. Asking why he would come here when he comes from Killie and is a Rangers fan is a bit short sighted IMO. He has played under Levein for Scotalnd and, by all accounts they get on. He's played with Kyle Lafferty at Rangers AND Norwich. Hearts are financially stable and looking up the way. Rangers appear to have learned no lessons from history finance wise and are, potentially still a basket case. He would also have the arseache of some of their fans hate him. He'd be almost universally popular here. Killie are his home town team and are doing okay just now but their crowds are gash, their manager will be off the first time someone from down south asks after him and I have no idea what their youth set up is like. He's played with Boyd before too. Our coaching/academy set up is second to none really and we are an ideal place for a young coach to start. In short. Cracking stadium, good crowds, good youth set up which appeals, beautiful city with good schools, manager and players you know, stability. If money isn't an issue why WOULDN'T he come here? Not saying it's happening but, to me we look as good a shout as anyone. Well put! If hr picks killie fairplay, they also gave mcculloch a chance at management. I can not see why naismith would go back to newco, the fans seem split and like you say the club are a basketcase. With berra and lafferty we have some class in the squad, naismith will like the charity work the club does, he does alot for charity. If money is no object and he wants to come north then he will be seriously considering Hearts from the stadium, training, future coach, atmosphere in big games.... we must tick most of his boxes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lennon conspicuous by his absence when lists of people for jobs come up. Likewise not seen Clarke linked much but he seems to have a much better reputation (and its obvious what he has done with Killie) than either Lennon or Lambert so i’d assume he won’t be around too long unless it suits him being at Killie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unknown user Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 If Rangers don't want him I feel confident. No matter what his personal feelings are, he's under contract to Norwich so they'll want a financial inducement, and there's no way killie can match us.

Seems the gossip with all 3 weve said this is where we are at or were out. Naismith may be this windows Gudjohnsson or Hleb maybe not and yes a boost would be good. problem is we have to temper that with bringing in the right players. Mitchell looks an interesting signing. Seems the thoughts are with us losing walker having mitchell it makes us stronger as we are now better balanced to attack. Or... we have regressed by losing Walker and not yet bringing anyone in while strengthening a solid defence or weve weakened the defence by bringing in a forward minded defender.... it will never be win win with us lot lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On Naismith, it's an incredible effort by the club to put together a competitive bid but he ain't coming to us , I just hope we don't let it drag on and on especially leading up to this weeks game.
