gdevoy Posted September 24, 2021 Report Share Posted September 24, 2021 Anybody that thinks that will finish top is seriously delusional. Arbroath were pub team standard and we struggled to contain them for 90 minutes. They controlled most of the game and we were an embareasment. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Guff92 Posted September 24, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted September 24, 2021 Where’s the Angelo out brigade? That was worse than any game under him and we have the biggest budget in the league. Absolutely woeful. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our famous team that finished 3rd got papped out of Europe by CQN! No divine right to smash anyone I'd settle for 3 consecutive passes on the ground. I think that would be a good starting point for what is considered acceptable for a team that is comfortably the best paid team in the league Edited September 24, 2021 by Killie lad 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beaker71 Posted September 24, 2021 Report Share Posted September 24, 2021 Alston decent McGinn why the f**k wasnt he starting E Murray very Good McGowan after a ragged start played Well Haustrup decent Shaw couldve and shouldve had at least 1 The rest were poor 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think we have any right to walk over Arbroath and they probably would have deserved it if they nicked a winner but at least we didn't lose and are top. Going to have games like that this season and important not to capitulate like we would have last season Every game I’ve watched has been more or less like that. We are stinking and I think I’ve got better things to do than watch much more of that. Complete and utter pish from beginning to end. I’m not going to single out players for stick. Hemming and E Murray get pass marks that’s it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially with wind behind it just kept playing it back to their keeper. Wish we would change it up a bit 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what it looks like. That's the part I do disgree on - surely if this was Tommy-ball we'd be seeing it in all games?

Brain dead is the only reasonable answer. How a manager with so much experience could stand and watch that dross for 90 odd minutes and we continued to play the long ball up to the last kick is very worrying. What was he watching? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piffer Posted September 24, 2021 Report Share Posted September 24, 2021 Too many Killie players showed up and expected something to happen without doing anything about it. Arbroath wanted something from that game far more than we did. They fought for everything while we were lucky to be second at times. A massive must do better. I can accept teams playing poorly but not when it’s blatantly obvious the biggest difference is that the other team simply want it more than you. Wright has to take responsibility tonight. The football was as poor as it’s been all season. We didn’t at any point adapt to the conditions. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it is what we’re seeing the vast majority of the time though. The fact that he generally has Robinson, Alston, McGinn and Shaw playing it means that quality comes through over the long term, and we see their standard come through on flashes. This is the very reason I was against appointing Wright, but I honestly feel I need to move on from that and take the long view that it’ll still see us through in the end. I’m resigned to the fact it won’t always be pretty, but over the course of the season I think we can get better on the ball and start to make the quality of the players start to shine through. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitch14 Posted September 24, 2021 Report Share Posted September 24, 2021 Disappointing one. Still feel Wright doesn't have the balance quite right in terms of using the squad to its best. To me seemed a good game for Polworth and Armstrong as things went on. Drifted further out the game in the second half. I'm definitely not as concerned as others though - one goal conceded after seven games and a cracking keeper is a great base to build from with a whole new squad. Arbroath played it as a cup tie - our players need to get used to dealing with that most weeks. And our manager needs to be more proactive in allowing them to do that. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
