The Tynecastle boss admits his players never games themselves a chance and knows better is needed with trip to Ibrox looming.
And the Tynecastle gaffer could understand the boos around the stadium after his side were dismissed by Celtic. Naismith’s team were facing an uphill battle after conceding the first goal in the opening moments of the match and couldn’t recover. Hearts lost for a 20th time in 22 matches against Celtic and the Gorgie boss said: “We gave up really sloppy goals. That’s the biggest thing in any game.
"When you are trying to get back into the game and you lose a goal at the wrong time, it kills the game and that’s inevitably what happened. In the game, there are split seconds where players need to make decisions and ultimately they are going to decide whether it’s a good action or bad action. Every goal we picked the wrong action.
“There’s maybe only one or two goals we have conceded this season that we have not played a part in ourselves. And that’s an issue. If you want to be successful you can’t continue to do that.” “The players are frustrated, we are frustrated and so are the fans. The games that we have coming up are really good games and they are ones that everyone wants to play in.”
