  1. I think we need someone to position himself just ahead of the defence a break up play/ support our defenders. The way Fow and Mavis did. Perhaps Peter Haring at Hearts. Out of contract in the summer. Disciplined and capable. The right type, perhaps?
  2. What about the boy, Alan Campbelll, used to be at Motherwell, and now Luton. He was on loan at Milwall, but that seems to have finished. I seemed to recall him being useful.
  3. I thought the goalie was Colin Doyle’s grandson. Very poor. Wasn’t impressed with the left back either. Tactically Derek got schooled by Ian Murray. when he ran down the tunnel at half time, I was expecting a massive change in the second half. In truth, there was, we coughed up the equaliser! Fantastic!!!!!
  4. I don’t know about artificial intelligence. I would be satisfied with “intelligence!!”, given some of the decisions of recent years.
  5. I watched the highlights last night. I couldn’t believe Doidge’s action/ inaction at the corner which led to the winning goal. Given the importance of the game to us, you would have thought that everything would have been done to secure victory. What we had was a vastly experienced footballer bottling a straightforward corner into the box. Inexcusable. He should never be selected again.
  6. I remember McEachran. Oh dear, the memories aren’t kind. Poor Josh, may have to live with this truly unfortunate link! On a different subject, I note that Regan Hendry has been released. He was a most effective midfield “organiser” when he was at Raith. Worth consideration?
  7. I confess, I have very disappointed in the performance of DM. Surely the basic requirement is to make the best from the players available using a system which suits them, NOT, the standard MO of the manager. For me this is DM’s biggest failure. I took the opportunity last week to watch Annan, Clyde, Airdrie, Hamilton, Patrick, and, A*r. In each instance, bar A*r, their teams were set up in 4/4/2, and player an organised, structured, manner. Very little kick and rush. Then I went to the St Johnstone match on Saturday. We were a shambles. At times it was like schoolboy football. No organisation, little structure, the plan seemed to be based on hope rather than pre arranged structure. Quite frankly, a shambles. What happens during the week? That is wholly in the province of the manager. For me, he is culpable and should walk.
  8. I remember Bobby Williamson talk quite openly about the trials and tribulations of David Mercy’s life at an AGM until the chairman suggested no more. Gloriously indiscreet, our Bobby!
  9. I was up at the Hamilton match (second league game). We got a right physical doing and the ref did little to curb it other than send off (Easton??) for a terrible foul on Liam Miller. I kept watching the bench and, quite frankly, Alessio was like a rabbit caught in the headlights. I knew from that day he was on borrowed time. Damage to the squad and morale was irreversible. Personally, I would have sacked him after that game. The fact he was allowed to carry on for some time shows two things, generosity by the club, and not wanting to appear stupid given the fanfare on Alessio’s arrival. Bad decisions all round.
  10. Much disappointment. Left footed, Killie supporting, Scottish international, Stuart Findlay joins Oxford on a four year deal. Should have come home. According the the last fan magazine/ programme, he was interviewed and stated he is a Killie fan. I am going by that.

  12. I was living in Stirlingshire at the time, attended the match, and was blown away but the performance/result. It was from memory quite warmish that evening, and so full of joy at the result, I regaled the passing Edinburgh folk with loud renditions of Killie songs! Now, I have a hellish singing voice, so it must have been a terrible and disturbing sight for those who encountered it!
