GinRummy Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 Load of nonsense on this thread. There wasn’t one poster on the thread, prior to us signing SN, who didn’t want him signed up. it’s obvious to anyone the 4 year deal was what we needed to offer. Does anyone honestly believe the club wouldn’t have preferred a shorter deal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamhammer Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 10 hours ago, A_A wehatethehibs said: Scotland is the only reason he’s keeping playing, I think he would be thinking about retiring but for his one last chance to get Scotland to a tournament in these playoffs. His first 6 months with us was his only injury free spell in about 5 years. So I’m not going to have a pop at him, Washington was the player signed to add the goals to solve our over reliance on Naismith. He is the 27 year old #9 and should be starting and playing 90 min every week, unfortunately that’s not happened but he is on the brink of fitness so let’s hope the new manager sparks him into life. Him Haring and Souttar will all hopefully add something I really like Washington and I think he's gonna be a major asset in a team playing a high press but I really don't think he's the answer to our goal scoring woes. Never been that prolific Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We knew he’d be injury prone before we signed him but everyone still wanted the deal done. Four years was clearly going to be a stretch but I’m convinced it was that or nothing. For folk to whine about it now is just embarrassing for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jambosdad Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 18 hours ago, Mikey1874 said: McPhee says Bartley should have been sent off. Uncertain exactly what the issue is with Naismith. Might just be a reaction to the challenge. Bartley's challenge was worse than Brandon's against Celtic. Clear lead with elbow. He then lies down for 3 minutes as if he was fouled. Ref adds 1 minute at end of half. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mister Dee Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 Naismith is an exceptional talent, & we're lucky he chose to stay with us. With the right players around him -& decisive tactics, he will show he is one of the best players in the league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBigO Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 9 hours ago, Gizmo said: Yeah I mean if he had not turned out for Scotland that definitely would have stopped Bartley being a dirty thug... Personally think we should only sign players with no national pride or passion for the game. In fact only having players not good enough for international football might be an idea. Though, as i say, we definitely want players with less passion than Naismith. Hate how up for it he always is. Thief. 4 year thief. What comes round more often, a leap year or Naismith playing for Hearts?? Ha ha ha. That was ace, like. Barrie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never been that prolific Yea I agree Washington was the wrong option for number 9, but that’s what we’ve got. All we can do is hope he comes good when fit. Really, we should’ve signed Shankland but there’s a whole 6 month thread on that 😂 our team lacks goals so we signed a non-prolific striker for #9... but as I say fingers crossed Washington comes good and proves that wrong, really for a new manager coming in, the goals need to come from somewhere other than Naismith Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are things Hobos etc can rip the pesh out of us for but signing Stevie Naismith aint one of em IMO. New manager may get the best out of him and he'll certainly be a big help to a new manager Not doubting his ability or passion. I was over the moon when he signed. But I did question his 4 year deal. He's 33 and injury prone. I hope you are right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
