How is he is getting on fitness wise.Wjll he be ready for  the start of the season.

Looking forward to Naismith and Walker partnership banging in the goals?

 

Hopefully they will have one pair of fully fit knees between them.:lol:

CL sounding very positive that Naismith will sign. Likely doesn’t need saying again but I will anyway, a tremendous bit of business by Hearts if we can get him. Spotting the opportunity for a loan spell last year and even more so now that he has proven himself such an asset, admittedly when fit.

So Naismith and Walker and that's all folks.

Happy with that because we've got to leave pathway for the likes of Irving, Cochrane, hickey , McDonald etc etc

We were actually trying to sign him outright from day 1. The deal couldn't go through in time as Norwich changed something or other so we quickly arranged a loan instead before the window closed .

Just read on the BBC site that Levein is confident that Naismith will be signing in the next few days.  Terrific.

 

As previously posted, I was pretty gloomy  a few weeks ago when I read on .net that he was going to Hibs, we hadn't sold any season tickets and the new stand was a wreck.

 

Suddenly, it all seems so much brighter.

That would be extremley welcome but still dont see a natural leader in centre of pitch.

We have two at the back and one up front. I’m sure they will spend a bit of time in the middle, so we should be fine.

Another Northern Irishman no-one would be allowed to support.

I wish we could get a rating to go update from Hearts on Naismith.  I remember the Andy Driver injury went on for years.

I read a report which said he was training with us.

 

https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/48794407

 

He has been training with us, while still employed by Norwich, so they must have given their go ahead. I had posted that I'd heard that he would be signing on for us on Monday coming, effectively a month after his loan spell with us finished. But someone else said on here it wasn't true and that to get his extra 4 months payment (I think it is termed along the lines of  a 13th month payment or such like) he would have to stay unattached until 1 month after his contract with Norwich ended on 30 June. I guessed I'd been told wrong, and assumed the other poster was correct. However, if he does sign on Monday it would suggest he is content to give up the additional 4 weeks payment, which will mean he can also play for us in the League Cup ties from 12 July.

Believe he missed out on the dunes last year also? So we may have an even fitter SN in a few days.

 

Can't wait for the announcement.

I think you have to assume that is down to his and our medical people neonjambo. I don't think he likes artificial surfaces either by all accounts, possibly too hard/unyielding. And it could be the case that running either up or down relatively soft sand isn't a good idea either. As long as he can get us functioning again and get a few goals on grass that is more than acceptable. Just seen a picture pop up on my Facebook showing Jamie Walker at Tynecastle holding up his top for the coming season, shirt number 10.

Higher quality artificial pitch.

 

See how it is soon. 

 

Maybe Naismith told them what he could play on. 

 

Saying they are the first in the country to use this. Couldn't be any worse than their old one.

This is what I said in my posts several pages back.  His contract was up on 30/6/19, the 13th month payment is dependent on him being 'legally' unattached through the '13th' month ie July, which means he cannot sign a contract until 1/8/19 if he wants to receive this pay off.

Does that rule him out the betfred cup games?

Gives him plenty of time to recover if so, to be honest he wouldn't be ready for the first one anyway, if he is in prime condition for our first league game, it will do me, he shouldn't be needed for the other 3 section matches in truth

Makes sense then, I hadn't read your post.

If he is in Scotland and CL is in Ireland, then no chance of an announcement this week,

If needed he can be back n Edinburgh from Ireland quicker than he could from most parts of Scotland so don't see a problem if he needs to come over

Apart from the risk of a serious injury
