Has really grabbed his opportunity. He’s the man with the jersey and he deserves it. Has barely put a foot wrong and has put some in excellent balls. The surprise package for me so far this season.
Maybe a great example of what competition for places can do. I guess however he played last year SOD would have gone straight back in.

His old man may have been a toral bellend when he left us, but he was a stonking good defender.

This. Forgetting his attitude and how it ended, he was a cracking player for us. 

I know a few boys who played against him when he was in his late 30's and they said he was still really fit and hard as nails.

absolutely his partnership with Monty was immense.  They complimented each other superbly, and both raised their games aside each other.

Nothing against Millen but is he looking better because SOD was so bang average at best last season?

I've been looking for better than SOD for at least a season and a half 

Only on this forum could you get a post like this that actually slags both players, the day after a well-earned draw against the champions. Still it would not be Killie otherwise.

You've never seen Facebook or Twitter then? We're far from perfect, but the level of fuckwittery in here is nothing compared to those two. If you think this is bad that will make your brain bleed.

I didn't mean to come across as slagging Millen, that wasn't my intention. He's been great. I was just highlighting how poor SOD had been for a while and was getting away with it after THAT season that he had.

Do you have Killie pals? Asking for a friend. Also, how is it possible to have an A*r ‘pal’? 

He meant pet ... everyone should have a pet Ayr fan.  When you're feeling down, you bring it out of it's cage and play with it for a wee while.  They also remind you just how bad life can be for some folk.

Ross Millen is more shocked than anyone that he has started this season as Kilmarnock's right-back.

He admits that he was unsure if he would get game time, but reckons his hard work in pre-season has paid off.

He has done more than enough to deserve keeping the jersey after impressive performances against Hibs and Celtic.

But with Aaron McGowan lying in wait, Millen knows his standard can't drop for a second.

He said: “I’m a wee bit shocked to have played two full 90 minutes but I’ve worked hard in pre-season and got my head down and worked away.
“When Stephen O’Donnell left I thought I’d have an opportunity and the gaffer said it was up to me to make that right back spot my own.

I learned a lot from him and I’m lucky to have experience like Chris Burke in front of me, Kirk Broadfoot beside me and Alan Power and Gary Dicker as well.

“It’s great, I’ve played two games, and Sunday was the biggest test and it was just a shame there were no fans there. I’d never played against Celtic before so it was a great experience and I felt good."

Millen admits that the lockdown restrictions haven't made too much of a difference to him.

Celtic defender Boli Bolingoli is in the firing-line after making a secret trip to Spain before playing against Killie, and Millen admits that should never have happened.

He said: “If you live your life right in normal circumstances then you won’t have a problem. I go home, eat, sleep and get back up and play football so I’m not interested in going out anyway so the restrictions don’t make a difference to me.

“If you’re trying to make a career in football then that’s the way you should live your life but that’s just my opinion and I understand you have to enjoy yourself - but at the right times.

“My first thought when I read the story was that I hope the league doesn’t get paused and also that the player himself doesn’t have coronavirus and it’s great news that he’s negative. 

“I wouldn’t mind if we were awarded three points on top of the one we got but that’s not going to happen! Seriously, the game is in the past and we got a draw and we move on."
