Steven Naismith denies using the Ibrox blame game as a deflection tactic and maintains his stance on the controversial penalty decision in the Rangers match.
Steven Naismith has shot down suggestions his Ibrox blame game was a deflection tactic as he is sticking to his guns in the Rangers penalty row .
While fellow ex-whistle Steve Conroy also told sharemarketcap.com: “There seems to be a clamour for change among Hearts fans so he’s trying desperately to hold on to his job. I have absolutely no idea what he’s moaning about and what he thinks he has seen.” But Naismith is refusing to budge and he insisted he flagged up the problem with blocking defenders at set pieces to SFA officials BEFORE the start of the campaign.
“I’m sure we’ll be sitting here talking about it in a month or two with regards to something else. At the start of the season it was a big thing. I understand how it all happens in games. The phase of blocking someone or doing x, y and z at a corner happens. It’s a phase, it comes back in years to come. I highlighted it in the meeting with the referees at the start of the season, with an example of a goal we lost.
“Whether it’s a fourth official, an assistant or the ref or VAR. Get the right decision and move on. I don’t know how you get there. I’m not sure you get an outcome from it. It’s a case of moving on and focusing on Livi.
