This time it’s Steven Naismith – currently plying his trade in the Scottish Premier League with Kilmarnock. He’s 20 years old, and was apparently watched by David Pleat – although it’s widely thought he’s more for future plans than an imminent signing – which is interesting, as presumably if there’s owt to this story then he’d be a promotion purchase – but the question on everyone’s lips is bound to be can he make the step up from the Scottish Premier to the English Championship? 
But anyway, we only seem to be linked with strikers – despite us having them in abundance – what is all that about? Having had a quick hunt around for information about Naismith, he does seem to be promising, and I would agree that our front line would need a bit of rationalising should we attain promotion to the next division. Maybe it’s something interesting, or maybe it’s just David Pleat taking in some Scottish football for a laugh!
Anyhoo, should you be interested in learning more about the Kilmarnock striker, then you can check out his details on Soccerbase. Not that there’s a lot there! He’s been playing regularly though, and has banged in 5 goals in 16 games this season.
