What's the score with wee Naisy?

[Togs 179]

Will be be out for the Old Firm like I suspect?

[.Williamson. 83,944]

I didn't even get to see what happened.

[Papa Sasac 164]

You could tell on his and the other players' faces it doesn't look good.

Is Edu back for then?

Something like:

McCulloch

Weiss Davis Edu Whittaker

???

[ScottBF2 3,540]

It didn't look THAT bad. He knew something was up, but didn't make a big deal of it, hopefully he's ok.

Naismith Davis McCulloch Whittaker

Weiss

Cracking midfield.

[KBOO72 4,487]

1 up front at home to the scum , I don't think so .

[JM1872 3,776]

looks like it unfortunately, hopefully not though. Would relish beating the Scum at Ibrox

[Papa Sasac 164]

1 up front at home to the scum , I don't think so .

Who else then?

Miller and.... Fleck?!

Lafferty? out

Jelavic? out

Beattie? Who knows

[FTP 3]

He came off straight away. Radio said it was more of a precaution.

Give him up until 12.45 to prove his fitness, however I would have no hesitations playing Jamie Ness.

1 up front at home to the scum , I don't think so .

We played 1 up front today and scored 4 goals, playin 1 upfront isn't always defensive you know.

[SirWalterSmithLegend 206]

Looks like he will be out. That pr*ck King on Radio Cattolica has him out for 6 weeks.

Hamstring injuries could be a few weeks, cant see Naisy makling it sadly.

[gunslinger 270]

i think he will be fine.

wasnt his hammy back jared a bit in the crash i expect.

[trueblue1872 2]

Depends really. We've all seen it happen in football where they pull up and they're out for 4 odd weeks.

Lets hope it's just a minor problem. Rested away to St Johnston and get him ready for the old firm.

[Jamie1807 146]

I think he'll be out

[KBOO72 4,487]

We played 1 up front today and scored 4 goals, playin 1 upfront isn't always defensive you know.

We played 4 in midfield with 1 playing off another 1 . And yes, we played well . The post I was replying to suggested playing a holding mid with four in front . Leaving a lone front man . I'd be happy to use the same system as today , but not the system in the earlier post .

[Clemdog 39,389]

His body language looked like he knew it was something that will keep him out for longer than a week.

But you never know.

[nemisis 358]

Wattie says he will probably miss the next game but he hopes he will be available for the game against the scum.

[ManchestGer 347]

Wattie says he will probably miss the next game but he hopes he will be available for the game against the scum.

Hope so, he didn't look too bad but with such injuries you're never quite sure how long they'll affect you

[deleteduser1 169]

I think he'll be out

I hope your wrong

[Jamie1807 146]

I hope your wrong

I hope so too.

[nickn1234 4]

sir walter says its not a full blown hamstring injury, naisy felt something in his back and came off as a precaution. hopefully be ok for the scum but if not it wont be long out.

[Amac9 2,060]

As long as it's not his hamstring.

He might have tweaked something in his back and if that is the case then he should not be out for too long. Hopefully he is ft for the celtc game because he would be a massive loss!

[delamonty 992]

He was fine walking off. No limp. Hopefully, just something that caused concern and nothing more?

Played a blinder today.

[Amac9 2,060]

RANGERS will know tomorrow how serious Steven Naismith's hamstring injury is - but Walter Smith does not expect it to keep him out for long.

The 24-year-old had to go off in the latter stages of the first half in the 4-1 win over Motherwell at Fir Park this afternoon.

Naismith is unlikely to feature during Wednesday's trip to St Johnstone but Smith appears to have some hope he'll be available for next week's derby with Celtic.

The manager said: "I don't think it's a full strain. Steven obviously felt it a little bit but from our own point of view we'd hope there's nothing untoward.

"It will maybe keep him out for a game or two but we'll know better in the morning once it has settled down how bad it is.

"We'll have to wait and see. I don't think we are looking at anything serious anyway but we'll not take any chances with him."

Losing Naismith would be a huge setback for Gers ahead of the Old Firm clash given he has scored eight goals for the club this season.

The former Kilmarnock youngster has also notched his first international goal for Scotland against Spain and has just signewd a deal until 2015 with the club.

[ronniemca 479]

every time wattie says its nothing serious he comes out the next day to tell us it'll be 6 weeks or something like that

[WeirFleckNRothen 1,789]

He left the pitch too freely for it to have the potential to keep him out for six weeks. I think the precaution comment was much, much more accurate.

It's a shame, too. He was playing well and has been all season. Credit where it's due, he's stepped up to the plate this season and delivered. If, and it's a big 'if', he doesn't recover for Sunday, he'll be a massive loss.

Still, we'll kick their shite in.
