No chance I was ever going to be anything but a staunch Jambo. One of the family played for Leith Athletic and the family story is he insisted the rest of the family still went to Tynie as if he wasn’t playing thats where he would be.

Doc Rob Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 Maybe he’ll sign for Sevco in the summer. Maybe not. Time will tell. There is something about Hearts as a club. Probably every fan thinks that about their club to some degree, but we have a huge number of former players and managers who seem to retain a big soft spot for HMFC. There’s a decent chance Naismith will decide he wants to stay. Wages may be the stumbling block in the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ie if Burley hadn’t left when he did etc. It would be interesting to see where Scottish football could be if they hadn’t ballsed up the tv deal on offer and if the SFA and SPFL had really promoted the league. There not a vast difference between the Championship and up here. Marketing etc has made the wages different though. One good thing has to be people like Naismith wouldn’t be able to be approached now had we not rebuilt from nothing with a good business plan , house in order and didn’t have the spirit we did around the club now. He said himself we tick all the boxes for him. Aside from the wage aspect we are able to compete with the better clubs off the park for signatures and thats all we can ask as we continue to grow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bauld Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 So to conclude. Naismith has signed on loan. He's on a massive wage of around 10k a week.* He is unfit.* He isn't as good as Lafferty, who is also shite, because he doesn't suit our hoofball tactics.* We only have him because nobody else wanted him. Not even rangers who were offered him on a play for free basis.* Bartley will have him in his back pocket all game this weekend.* *These opinions reflect those of .net posters and may differ from the views of humans.

We can surely out bid Aberdeen, Hibs or anybody else up here. Spot on post just reading through some of the negative comments on here by a certain individual and it beggars belief your absolutely right - give it 6 months and I think Naismith once he has played for us and sampled Tynie in the famous maroon hubs and the sheep will have nay chance even if they wanted him - anyway, he would only go to a bigger team than us if the option was available so that rules these 2 out dont think either of the erse cheeks will go for him - he picked the jambos and that's good enough for me an absolutely fantastic signing for us regardless of what anyone says - if we have got him for 5k a week that's an absolute steal and a belter of a deal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The seductress we call JKB lured me in with promises of ITK material I could only dream of hearing, living so far from Gorgie. At the beginning it was fun, the transfer windows were a joy. With the time difference it wasn't a big deal waiting on the midnight deadline. 18 new signings at a time. What could possibly go wrong. Mad Vlad had me eating out of his hands. Logging in for a few minutes a day at lunch soon consumed the whole lunch hour. Supper with the family after work became less frequent. Binge watching Ray Donovan was never going to happen. Not while Hearts were looking to bring in the likes of Rudd Gulit or Claudio Ranieri. I never realized it but the life was being drained from me day by day. Bit by bit. My family and friends tried to intervene, telling me that the Hearts news now will still be the same later. There was no need for 24/7/365. But I didn't listen. I couldn't listen. What if they were wrong. What if something happened while I wasn't checking in. How could I risk it. Then came the trollers, the lowest of the low. Fans from other clubs pretending to be like me, loving what I love. Stories about no money, favorite players leaving, bankruptcy, inferior steel, no more Heart of Midlothian. Unthinkable. I hated them. I still see my kids now and again, not as much as I'd like. I passed my daughter the other day in the kitchen. She never spoke but I know she saw me. Hard for two people to walk by the fridge at the same time and not see each other. My wife sleeps with me still but only because we have one of those number beds and it helps her back.

Deans Jambo Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 From a link @Ryder posted on the Stokes thread, I'd suggest this explains why we have been able to pay an increased wage for Naismith. A quote from Levein at the agm in Dec'16; “When we get to the point where we’re bringing four or five players into the first team from the academy, then the money we can spend on players increases. Then, all of a sudden, you’re looking at a different animal altogether,” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
