Ngonge88 Posted June 14, 2020 Report Share Posted June 14, 2020 Donati wont be his assistant. Slightly disappointed in that tbh. Another cost cut i reckon. Millen as number 2 isnt exactly exciting stuff. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another good opportunity missed to bring in someone with experience in that role. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

killie billies pal Posted June 14, 2020 Report Share Posted June 14, 2020 Slight conflict of interest with Millen, he may well be able to be totally impartial about his lad, hope so ! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing the reserve league is canned and he probably didn't actually have a job this season. Was he Fowler's assistant before? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scouser2 Posted June 15, 2020 Report Share Posted June 15, 2020 AD .....“I’ve always enjoyed a close bond with the fans and I’ve been blown away by how they’ve continued to show their support during the shutdown. This season, starting out without supporters in the stadium, will be unlike any other that I’ve ever known but that continued sense of unity can help carry us through until we’re able to reunite at Rugby Park.” Now decision has been made will get full backing and hope this proves in time to be a good appointment for our club....big test in the next month or so working with Fowler to find correct additions and then gets team set up for the season ahead hope he also gets the backing from the board 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

historyman Posted June 15, 2020 Report Share Posted June 15, 2020 We will find out soon enough. After the first 90 minutes of the new season he will either be the saviour or a disaster. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigdaw Posted June 15, 2020 Report Share Posted June 15, 2020 At least its a two year contract, Providing the Train does not leave the tracks , Its enough time to build a Squad/Team to play the way you want. Also easier to attract players. Someone posted elswhere that he is to laid back and does not shout during the games , But Donnati did......That's made me think that Dyer does not want an Asst giving out a different message. His style is his style. My personality is failry calm , Laid back , I listen before i open my mouth , Yet on the Football picth when i played (amateur) I was like a different animal , I would screm and shout and loved a 50/50 Tackle. Also when a Manager type threatens or is loud i switch off. So as long as the players buy into what the Manager want's we should be fine. Be interesting to see what we bring in and how Dyer develops as a manager. Its quoted that he will look to bring though some younger players. To be fair that's the way forward. If look at Motherwell , In the last season and a half they have gone from being long ball with mostly experienced players to ,Good passing side with a lot of youngsters coming through. The better youngster will be sold and the money possibly invested in bring in more young players. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killieboykfc Posted June 15, 2020 Report Share Posted June 15, 2020 On the one hand I think, with the current situation in the world, that he will provide a bit of stability and familiarity so it’s a sensible enough move. But, on the other hand I can’t help but agree with SH that it just feels a bit lazy. From listening to BB a while back I got the impression that he was going to give Dyer the job regardless of the results during his ‘trial’ period. This coupled with the fact that Dyer always seemed quite reluctant to even take the job on a trial basis and the stories from Lee McCulloch detailing how BB pushed for him to take the job when he didn’t want it makes it seem like a bit of a risky decision. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pride_of_ayrshire Posted June 15, 2020 Report Share Posted June 15, 2020 Referring to the assistant manager it was the sun whom I saw report that Millen will be no.2. Yet in the articles the club released for donati's departure and the appointment of Dyer there was no mention of Millen being assistant. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onejulianfaubert Posted June 15, 2020 Report Share Posted June 15, 2020 4 wins from 15 games now merits the killie job, and andy millen as assistant. Back to the locke and mcculloch days it is 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piffer Posted June 15, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2020 I guess we will never know the whole truth about the appointment. To me the board were desperate to give him it for whatever reason. By January they had no justification based on performance/results. Giving him it until the end of the season they were biding their time until results backed an appointment. Did we actually look at other candidates? Did we talk to anyone? I have my doubts. All that’s meaningless now. He’s the manager and has my backing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems such a genuine guy and I reckon he will put the work it. Hopefully it comes good. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trojan76 Posted June 15, 2020 Report Share Posted June 15, 2020 (edited) I honesty don't know what AD has done to merit getting a 2 year contract, he hardly has us all guns blazing in the games he was in charge. I hope that now he will bring in his own players that things may change, but it doesn't seem a logical appointment Edited June 15, 2020 by Trojan76 -3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He totally gets it. That’s what I like about him. “He knows we have a budget to stick to and that we need to have a good dressing room. He is also a total gentleman.” 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
