2008-09 Season Player Quotes & Notes:

Sept 21st 2008:
Alan Combe had no complaints about the result Vs Celtic but had little good to say about Nakamura or McCurry.

He said: "There were 11 players on that pitch and 5,000 Killie fans who were upset by that because it was never a penalty. The fact Nakamura got up with the biggest grin on his face tells a story. He went down too easy, without a doubt. In saying that, they were 2-0 up at the time and we were never in the game - but losing three goals was disappointing. It was a soft penalty we got against us at Ibrox last week. You could see with the abuse he was getting with all the singing, maybe that played on his (McCurry's) mind, I don't know."

Oct 14th on JJ Alan Combe's Contract... "We've had a brief chat with Alan about a new deal and he'll think about it. His contract is up at the end of the season but we have the option of another year so we are just trying to get it all tied up. These things can drag on for a few meetings but we'd like to get it tied up quickly. Everyone appreciates the form Alan has been in. He's been unlucky not to get a shout from Scotland. There's not a keeper alive that doesn't lose daft goals because it's a hard job but Alan has pulled us out of holes more often than he has cost us. It speaks volumes about what I think of Alan that I put him in at the start of the season after he came back from injury. Damien Rascle had been outstanding during the pre-season games while Alan had been forced to sit on the sidelines. But when it came to the first game of the season when Alan had come through a week of training, I put him in because he's been there and done it. He wanted to prove I made the right decision and he has"
