Bauld Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 I think you can already predict where this is going. The final was his target. Can he make It? We've made it to the final but that was Inverness. We now have to get past either celtic or Aberdeen. Neither of which is an inviting prospect. That all changes if Naismith is fit. If he is able to take to the field fit to play we have more than a chance of lifting the trophy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Debut 4 Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 Agree. But is there also the time for him to get match fitness prior? Even at that I’d still have him in there. We need winners and people who spit, snarl and want to lead by example. Esp in a final. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kiwidoug Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 Wee update from the club on his recovery process would go down a treat. A handsome chap in my mirror told me that he would be 100% and score twice. Can't vouch for it though as he"s a bit of a fantasist but other than that he's a tremendous bloke who hates Hibs.

R08813 Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 Does anyone think they might be holding off on the naismith contract announcement until just before the final to boost everyone before the game? Just a thought. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thommo414 Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 Steven Naismith limping off at Murrayfield against Celtic was the moment the last wheel came off our season. I look forward to seeing him emerge from the tunnel with his shoulders back and his chest puffed out at Hampden on the 25th putting in an inspired, leading performance where he and the rest of the team leave after 90 minutes to pick up the Scottish Cup. Finally delivering on a season that looked like it promised everything and then felt like it had produced nothing. Then ultimate scenes as he announces the signing of a pre contract in proper Wolf of Wall Street fashion on the Hampden turf Quote Link to post Share on other sites
