I wonder if Power/Haunstrup/McKenzie and McGowans contracts were basically void due to relegation but club had a duty to offer reduced terms If that’s the case I hope we offered Haunstrup 50p and a packet of crisps 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clearly doesn't intend to be messed about This is what we thought we were getting when he came in. This is much more like it. He maybe was walking on eggshells trying to coax them over the line and now the gloves are off (apologies, seriously mixing the metaphors there.. ) 17 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

casual observer Posted June 1, 2021 Report Share Posted June 1, 2021 He was never a good enough player to command a regular first team place and never will be if we have ambitions of promotion and competing in the premier again. Thanks for the effort and good luck. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like most of our goals last season there wasn’t just one error but a combination of errors by different players. Why Millen threw the ball to Adam I will never know as there wasn’t a Killie player anywhere near him or even moving towards him.

Pretty sure Burke made a fake run (in the general area) then ultimately stood still to make space for himself. How Millen didn't see that I don't know. Was a good volley up the park though ?. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigdaw Posted June 2, 2021 Report Share Posted June 2, 2021 Mullens main attribute was his crossing ability , But for a fullback I want defensive ability first, Both Millen and Haustrup don't seem to be able to stop crosses. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Killiepie Posted June 2, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted June 2, 2021 Really didn't think he was as bad as some people are making out. Yes he made a few vital mistakes but so did most players. Most would love Findlay back but he probably cost just as many goals with stupid mistakes. 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point was tongue in cheek that, in a WB, being able to attack is more than just a bonus, it’s a necessity. If anything, being able to defend well is a bonus. It would be interesting to compare how many top class WBs started as wingers and how many as full backs.

Cant defend or attack with any competence but can run up and down the line vigorously for 90 mins. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right he can't defend well but on attacking side to be fair to haunstrup, most of his games under dyer he basically stopped at half way line which will have been an instruction, in the few times he actually got to the byline this season he put a few decent balls in, won us a penalty and scored in playoff. I felt we needed him to be our outball to get up the pitch similar to how we used jones and millar as he was only guy in the team with decent pace. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haundstrup is an easy target, but IMO he was left more space to defend than a normal left back would be. Some of the reasons for that start on the right hand side of the pitch. Some of it comes from the defensive failings of Pinnock. Some of it comes from our departed captains lack of mobility. It’s still a hell of a lot of ground to protect. Going forward our lack of movement is well documented and nobody gambles on getting on the end of a cross. He could throw in balls all day and nobody would have got near them. It’s all moot anyway if he’s leaving too. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
funky monkey Posted June 2, 2021 Report Share Posted June 2, 2021 Bye bye, see ya. Never good enough to be a first pick at premier league level, part of the reason why we are where we are. Made some horrific basic errors that cost us dearly and seemed to have an arrogant attitude much like his dad. Glad he is gone, we can do much better. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cill Mheàrnaig Posted June 2, 2021 Report Share Posted June 2, 2021 He wasn't a particularly good footballer but the one thing you heard about Millen was his attitude and professionalism. Did Clarke not say as much which is why he was happy to keep him around as backup? If his name was Ross Clarke he'd get much more leeway than he does. Not good enough to be first choice at Kilmarnock but absolutely fine as a backup. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I absolutely hate this current trend on here of absolutely tearing into folks character all because they are rubbish at football. Seems to be happening more and more where people are claiming that players are lazy, s**te professionals, toxic etc despite knowing absolutely f**k all about the person they are slating, outwith the 90 minutes they see them on the pitch.
