Hearts have sacked head coach Steven Naismith following a run of eight successive defeats, with CEO Andrew McKinlay saying there was "little evidence of any potential upturn in fortunes". Assistants Gordon Forrest and Frankie McAvoy have also been dismissed.
Former Scotland forward Naismith, 38, first took the job in April 2023, initially on an interim basis, and steered the Edinburgh club to third in the Scottish Premiership last season. Hearts are currently bottom of the league, with just one point from their opening six outings.
They were knocked out of the League Cup by Championship side Falkirk and dropped into the Conference League after losing both legs of their Europa League play-off against Viktoria Plzen. In August, Naismith and his backroom team agreed new contracts running to 2026.
Confirming the "difficult decision" to dismiss the management team , McKinlay said it is "clear for all to see that things are not working this season".

Oh, maybe they can get Robbie Neilson back. Maybe not, he`s sunning himself in Florida as manager of Tampa Bay Rowdies. Not bad work, if you can get it.
