Scouser2 Posted April 7, 2018 Report Share Posted April 7, 2018 Past couple games we have won without hitting top form....sign of a good team to do that The hard work put in training into the shape of our team has helped...and we show great game management helped by experience of likes of broadfoot, Dicker n Power 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IMO Posted April 7, 2018 Report Share Posted April 7, 2018 Although Mulumbu, SOD, Jones and McKenzie were passengers today thought power, Dicker, broadfoot and Findlay then stepped in and really held team together -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
historyman Posted April 7, 2018 Report Share Posted April 7, 2018 It was a poor game and a pretty poor performance from us to be honest but a fantastic result. 5 wins in a row is a great achievement. Back four were superb, especially the two centre halves. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chum Posted April 7, 2018 Report Share Posted April 7, 2018 Broadfoot and Findlay the pick of the much for certain. Honourable mention for Gary Dicker also. All in all a brilliant result in the grand scheme of things and hopefully a similar (or even bigger) crowd next week.

mitch14 Posted April 7, 2018 Report Share Posted April 7, 2018 Not our best performance but brilliant support and a deserved win. Thought Clarke's tactics were odd today. It was clear that we didn't have enough width or pace and took a long time to fix. For the last 15 minutes we seemed to deliberately sit incredibly deep and defend which I though made us vulnerable too. That said, if Clarke took the view that all we needed to do was sit back and soak up pressure and win, then fair enough. Lacking a bit of composure today and a very rusty Mulumbu. Great 3 points to take from there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C4mmy31 Posted April 7, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2018 Partick Thistle 0-1 Kilmarnock: Findlay's Firhill Magic..... Stuart Findlay's header provided a magical day at Firhill as Killie's unbeaten league run was extended to ten matches. The central defender capitalised on quick thinking from Jordan Jones, as he netted a powerful first-half header to hand Killie a 1-0 triumph in Maryhill. Over 1660 Killie fans sang, roared and encouraged their team over the line during tough second half conditions on a heavy pitch as the league's bottom side failed to find a way past Jamie MacDonald. Kirk Broadfoot returned from suspension to partner Findlay in the heart of the Killie defence with Youssouf Mulumbu and Jordan Jones coming back with Scott Boyd, Rory McKenzie and Eamonn Brophy all on the bench. Jones' pace proved to be Killie real weapon in the first 45 minutes, forcing Christie Elliott back and starting a number of good attacks. Mulumbu's great through ball played Jones in on goal with Thistle keeper Ryan Scully out to block the attack but the ball fell to Kris Boyd, who would have scored but for a late clearance by Elliott. Killie wouldn't be denied and when Erwin was pushed in the back, a quick free-kick saw Jones stand the ball up for Findlay to direct his powerful header past the helpless Thistle stopper. Alan Archibald's men came into the match on the back of a 4-0 loss to Ross County and they reacted quickly at the start of the second half with MacDonald twice denying Sammon. The second opportunity saw the Killie keeper rush out quickly to smother the danger as the hosts tried desperately to get back into the match. Killie settled after that flurry of action with Mulumbu seeing his shot blocked but Thistle were enjoying the majority of possession without threatening too much. Findlay and Broadfoot both produced well-timed blocks as the match wore on but with the help of the away support, the team stood strong and took all three points back to Ayrshire. Kilmarnock: MacDonald; O'Donnell, Broadfoot, Findlay, Taylor; Power, Dicker, Mulumbu (Brophy); Jones, K.Boyd (Tshibola), Erwin (McKenzie) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
