semi-related - the killie website looks a bit of a joke. Are Killie showing games for away fans? 

Jamie Robson saying when he took the head knock against Hibs the physio asked him 'do you know where you are?' and he replied 'Motherwell'.😂

Speaks pretty well these days and seems to have matured. Been brilliant so far too

Very much so.

Established Utd player now instead of daft wee boy.

How far are you willing to go to be a successful football player???

"Motherwell!" 😂

That's far enough, get a stretcher! 😂

Mark Reynolds and Kieran Freeman both had serious injuries in the past. Will they be ok to play tomorrow on the astroturf?

 
The way Micky is talking they will. He says he's not bothered about plastic pitches and won't allow them as an excuse, or words to that effect.

I'm going for a starting 11 of.......................

                                 Seigrist
                  Neilson  Connolly   Reynolds
Bolton                                                         Robson
              Butcher                        Harkes                                                               
                             Pawlett      
           Clark                                      Appere

Don't think that will be far away Pat.

As said above i hope we can see Shankland fit enough to possibly contribute at some point.

Be good to see Glass get some game time too.
 

Has anyone managed to pay for the game today via Killie?

I cant find the link to buy when i get logged in. fucking shit site.

Team:

Seigrist

Neilson
Connolly
Reynolds

Bolton
Pawlett
Butcher
Harkes
Robson

Chalmers
Clark

While there was never such a gap between the sides in terms of the result, it's obvious where our weaknesses were on the afternoon.

If we're being honest, that was coming, and even the excuses of the plastic pitch and claims for penalties which never came don't wash. Killie, with no wins in their first five, were far more street wise and capable at this level. I'm glad there's a couple of weeks until the next fixture, but we were found out at the back and totally lacking up front, yet only two subbies used.

Thankfully, the game made my eyes bleed - and i wasn't  able to see all 90 minutes...there  are recurring themes though and today we didn't get the luck of previous weeks. The team got great praise v celtic so need to take this on the chin too.

Some of those boys simply aren't good enough imo and should be bench players.

The system is  set not to lose/frustrate/limit opposition to long shots but to do it effectively, we have no threat at the opposite end.

The majority of our balls into the box come from butcher or connolly -neither of whom are known for delivering balls into the box. we would be as well playing 6 1 3 formation as the ball isn't getting anywhere near midfield.

When we started to push forward, there was nothing there and we could still be going this time tomorrow and be waiting for a goal

also guessing we will get the same bland comments from the manager.....we will take it on the chin and go back and work on making the players better.....

I'm agreeing with you mostly, but felt we did try to play the ball through midfield quite a bit, just not too successfully because we have few out ball opportunities up front.

A lot of possession today but no end product. Killie took there chances. When things are not going our way we don't have anything on the bench to change it.

It's true we have a lack of options, but I'd have had Edwards on for Connolly, Glass for Chalmers and Cammy Smith for Clark, just to freshen things and gives others an opportunity.

Probably (?) a coincidence, but three of KFC's four goals came within a couple of minutes of them making changes.
