Given the rock and roll rollercoaster that the last few decades of following Hearts have been our collective threshold for finding things strange or amusingly wierd is naturally a little higher than at other clubs who have become used to a quieter life. To the outsider the Naismith/MacAvoy arrangement bay look bizarre but we've seen far stranger than this 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you elaborate, because a lot of people seem to see what they want to see in that video Bear in mind that the annoying interviewer is a confirmed hibs tw@t Even one Hearts fan expressed negative views on it, but he wanted that spanish guy as coach, because he 'sounded foreign' and is therefore automatically cool, despite the fact he's been hooring himself to lots of clubs in Europe, gagging to get away from hammarby, where he's now near the foot of the table 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MacAvoy was saying that he is in charge and the final say is with him, and Naismith chips in again saying nothing had changed from last season. "Very rarely has there been a stand off", whoops what did I just say there, "there's never been a stand off". It's a car crash. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless if the interviewer is a Hibs fan or not, Sky have been doing these pre-season interviews with every team and theyw ere surely prepped on how to answer these types of questions before being thrown in front of the camera. 5 minutes ago, kingjoey said: Naismith was embarrassed and trying to say that nothing had changed from last season, in fact he said that a few times.

Dons_1988 Posted July 27, 2023 Share Posted July 27, 2023 This is quite a benign story made worse by naismiths clear discomfort in front of the camera. He’s had a few quite strange interviews since becoming caretaker. Not that it necessarily dictates his ability to do the job but it is part of the job nonetheless. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankie's not good in front of the camera, I'd be concerned about that and maybe that was making SN uneasy, fair play there 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would actually agree that some of Naismith's interviews haven't been great. We'll be out of Europe in a few weeks, and McAvoy can step into the tea-making shadows. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Wonder Posted July 27, 2023 Share Posted July 27, 2023 Naismith hasn't been helped by being put in the position where he's having to lie when he clearly doesn't want to. The only other time there was a bit awkwardness was when he was asked about Snodgrass and I think he was trying his best not to chuck him under the bus. The vast majority of his interviews have been absolutely fine, but they do tend to be in house ones so maybe he feels more relaxed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Insert Amusing Pseudonym Posted July 27, 2023 Share Posted July 27, 2023 I think calling it a car crash is a bit OTT. Maybe a minor dunt in a car park, a but embarassing but not life threatening 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
