That’s not what we were hearing a few weeks ago when TW was being praised for the signings he had made.
-
Hear, hear. People will only take so much.
-
I’m not expecting us to steamroller teams and win the league at a canter. However, I’m equally not expecting practically every player to hoof the ball forward to no one in particular every time they get it when it’s patently clear that is doing us no go whatsoever. We barely strung two passes together all night.
-
We were praised after the Patrick game because we played well but that certainly wasn’t the case tonight. We were outplayed and deserved nothing from the game.

Seriously. Praise after a performance like that? It was total and utter rubbish.
-
Sadly, unfortunately I don’t think we will get promoted with continued performances like that. Despite not losing goals we won’t win many games with one shot on target. I don’t think anyone could complain if we had lost tonight.
-
‘Disappointed he couldn’t do more’? Are the players running things again?
-
All very well but none of this mentions the fact that our manager sent a team out and watched them playing totally ineffective tactics for 90 minutes without changing a thing.
-
I was very much in favour of TW being appointed but if that’s what he’s in favour of I’m not sure he’s the right man.
-
God knows how TW thinks that long ball tactics suits the players we have. In addition to being mind numbing to watch we barely won a ball in the air or picked up a second ball. Why on earth persist with tactics that so obviously aren’t working?
-
A perfect summary of the first half. We have nothing in the middle of the park, no one putting their foot on the ball and playing a pass.

Yep, for the first time in my life supporting Killie I went into games against the old firm expecting to win or draw and in most cases that’s what happened. It was a brilliant feeling. -

What happened to the club after Clarke left isn’t his fault and I don’t agree that is part of a managers remit. That is the responsibility of the board. It’s difficult enough these days for managers to keep their jobs. -

And people say I’m negative. When you can’t appreciate the best league finish since the 60’s I would say something is wrong. -

You weren’t happy about the team under Steve Clarke? I was never happier with the team when he had them regularly competing with the of and took them to third in the league. It wasn’t that long ago. -
I also think think it’s fine to comment on a player’s ability or lack of. That’s fair game. I don’t agree with personal abuse. The only personal abuse I heard yesterday was aimed at Iain McColl but it was water off a duck’s back.
-
If Hemming had been between the sticks last year instead of that liability we probably wouldn’t have been relegated.
-
Was a good player but he has absolutely no affection for Killie and should have been put out to grass as a commentator long ago.

How many games do you actually attend in a season? What the fans shout at the players is no different to any other football ground I’ve ever been to all over Europe. In fact, it’s pretty tame in comparison.

The Rory Conundrum (split from Rory Appreciation post)
historyman replied to Stefanus's topic in Killie Kickback
He was rubbish last week and was getting hauled off when he scored. Conversely even when he doesn’t play well people want to say that he does. And that was certainly the case last week despite his winning goal, welcome though it was. -

Didn’t think we won ugly. We played well and won comfortably with some sound game management. Did everything right as far as I could see
