Bellman2010 Posted September 21, 2020 Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 Aaron McGowan could be set for a shock Kilmarnock exit. The talented defender has asked to leave Rugby Park, but that request has been turned down. Killie boss Alex Dyer doesn’t want him to go but it could all come down to what happens over the last couple of weeks of the transfer window. The 24-year-old is frustrated by his lack of first-team football. McGowan signed from Hamilton in the summer. The Englishman had a string of options on both sides of the border but decided on Rugby Park. McGowan, however, has only made two Premiership appearances for Killie this season, after being a standout at Accies. Dyer has preferred to go with Ross Millen at right-back. News emerged after McGowan was left on the bench again for Killie’s weekend win over former team Hamilton. Former Accies team mates confirmed that the right-back is keen to move on to get regular first-team football and needs to be playing regularly at this stage in his career. https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/aaron-mcgowan-requests-shock-kilmarnock-22715914 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beaker71 Posted September 21, 2020 Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 (edited) If true then get him hunted, as it shows a piss poor attitude and that he won't fight for his place and lets be honest he's been pish so far. 8 games in ffs. 8f true then the videos we saw showed a totally different guy.

LH31 Posted September 21, 2020 Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 Strange if true. Is it just Accies team mates at the wind up with the media? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobody Posted September 21, 2020 Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 (edited) Is that a genuine tweet and not that spoof Record one? If genuine don't know what to say. Thought the definition of being professional was to work hard in training and take your chance? The boy for whatever reason has had two chances and been mince. It's up to him to demonstrate he is worth a start, not throw his toys out the pram. Edited September 21, 2020 by KenVaagen1984 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SM21 Posted September 21, 2020 Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 Hardly came in and set the league on fire with his performances. Was gift wrapped a place when millen got sent off and made an a*se of it. Then gets over looked for the 4th choice CB, says more about him than anything else. Billy big bollocks attitude coming and has been found out by the looks of it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Souleycouley93 Posted September 21, 2020 Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 (edited) Gallus as f**k on arrival. Zeno played his first ever professional game out of position in front of McGowan. He needs a boot in the arse as he should be able to keep Millen etc out the team. But by all accounts Millen has been working hard and been pretty solid so far. 8 games and wants to chuck it is embarrassing. The fact it’s Scott Burns in paper suggests it’s true. But seems they have leaked it to probably gauge interest. Edited September 21, 2020 by Souleycouley93 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ngonge88 Posted September 21, 2020 Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 Not sure what to think of this one tbh. You dont go from being player of the year 2 years running to s**te overnight. Whether he means to or not, Andy Millen is always going to favour Ross. Hope McGowan can turn it round but I'm.not convinced of hes made these comments. -12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killieboykfc Posted September 21, 2020 Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 What a banger. Arrived with the billy big baws hard man attitude talking about how he will improve us and isn’t even arsed to try and turn round his pish start. Away back to accies or some pish league 2 team. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Souleycouley93 Posted September 21, 2020 Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 Andy Millen doesn’t pick the team though. Ross was behind Sod for few years. He rarely played and has apparently worked really hard on his game. Fair dos to him he bided his time and has taken his opportunity when it has arisen. McGowan has a bit of the Jordan Jones about him. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piffer Posted September 21, 2020 Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 Fullback situation is a bit of a joke. I’d guess McGowan and Haunstrup we’re both lured here as first choices. Neither have been given a sustained run. McGowan was rightly dropped after two poor outings but has watched the position be handed back to Millen despite Rossi’s performance. That being the same Millen who let the team down vs St Johnstone. Neither fullback have been outstanding but Dyers blind loyalty keeps them in the team. Having said that. To ask to leave this early is a joke. Stick it out and prove your worth -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bizza_89 Posted September 21, 2020 Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 Surely not. That's embarrassing if true. Fair enough he expected to be first choice. Millen has surprised everybody... but with all due respect to Ross, we're not talking about Dani Alves. The position is there to be won. I hate slating players after a few games but McGowan has been p*sh when given the opportunity. It's up to him to turn that around 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Guff92 Posted September 21, 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 People are trying far too hard to down play how good Millen actually is because of who his dad is. If Millen had McGowan on the back of his shirt and was signed in the summer we’d be singing his praises. Anyway, McGowan can go. 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pride_of_ayrshire Posted September 21, 2020 Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 Shows how much of a professional he really is. Going in a huff and wanting to leave rather than to fight for his spot. I personally would like to see McGowan but Millen has been excellent bar his red. And even Rossi has performed better at right back than McGowan. I hope Dyer doesn't drop Millen to accommodate McGowan just now. If he wants to play work for it dont throw your toys out the pram. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonbon19 Posted September 21, 2020 Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 Dyers mantra is all about teamwork , McGowan has shown that he’s not bought into this . Last chance saloon for the boy I fear . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scouser2 Posted September 21, 2020 Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 Hopefully the player will knuckle down , work hard in training and when given next chance show the Manager he is best RB we have If not then he the player will be seen as the weak link , running away instead of fighting for a place 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fletch Posted September 21, 2020 Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 (edited) Strange timing with the cup games coming up. You would think the opportunity is there to prove himself and win the shirt. Same goes for Haunstrup who has looked good in the glimpses we have had. If he's the type of guy to just throw in the towel after a handful of games and admit he's not as good as Millen then he's not the type of player I thought we were getting anyway. Bar Millens moment of madness he's never really let us down. Always has a solid decent enough performance, very rarely does he do anything hugely impressive but very rarely does he make a mistake. Combined with his good delivery I'll take those qualities in a full back all day long - it would be a shame to see him dropped on decent form because McGowan wants out.

Shug2930 Posted September 21, 2020 Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 McGowan gave himself a lot to live up to with his pre season interview - he was going to bring something extra to the team I seem to remember. I was surprised Millen started the first game but don't believe for a second that he was preferred due to his Dad. Thereafter Millen played well, had the red card aberration against St Johnstone and McGowan deputised like the boy in the pub league who is standing with a can of lager and a fag at the side of the park and gets the last 10. If there is truth in the story about him wanting to leave then.... dont let the door hit your arse on the way out 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

killie89 Posted September 21, 2020 Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 If this is true then I’m very disappointed in him. Says something about his character if he thinks he doesn’t want to fight for his place and can just walk into the team in front of another right back who is doing very well. Can do without players like that 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also is plainly obvious that bar one bad decision Millen has hardly put a foot wrong. McGowan on the other hand managed to look like and absolute haddy when give the chance. The fact that he was overlooked against Dundee Utd for the forth choice center back playing his first professional game speaks volumes. I hope the lad can learn and up his game but if hes spitting the dummy already then I canne see it.
