'It's not happening and this can't continue'

We asked for your views after Hearts suffered an eighth consecutive defeat with a 2-1 loss at St Mirren.

Here's what some of you said:

George: Sadly despite Steven Naismith's comments on having the fight and the skills to start winning games I very much doubt he can. It's a far more difficult task than I think he can manage, so unfortunately, and it saddens me to see Hearts dismissing any manager, they must move him and his assistants out. The crucial decision would be who replaces him.

Chick: Another hapless performance and Hearts are heading for relegation with this manager. I've followed the team for 70 years and I’m sad to say I've seen it all before. What are the board waiting for? Whatever happened to passion and pride wearing a maroon jersey, it's all disappeared.

Brian: The board must take the blame. They allowed the manager to splash the cash and sign below average players. The team has played one good game all season, we could go down, the manager knows he needs to resign.

Anon: I like Naismith and I wanted him to succeed, but he as good as admits he’s run out of ideas, so he has to go. He might survive until after the Ross County game but I’ll be amazed if we don’t lose that too. Now if they could bring in David Moyes to work with him as technical advisor.

Alan: Something has to change soon, whatever is going on in training where they appear to be world beaters is not going into games. I can only see 1/2 games with Naismith left in charge.

Adam: Naismith doesn't know how to handle the players, he can sit there and rip into the players one week and the next he's struggling for an excuse, soon Tynecastle and away days will be empty, it's embarrassing, a team that held third place last season is sitting 12th.

Kevin: It's not happening and this can't continue. We are boring to watch, weak at the back and impotent upfront. You sign good players and can't get anything out of them. We need a change of the entire coaching staff and players need to be shipped out.
