Personally I would rather SSC did what he thought was right to give us the best chance of a top six finish. In the last 100 years, how many times have we (a) finished top six or (b) won a cup? I'm guessing that 90% of us can answer (b) straight away, with years, opponents, scores etc. For that reason, cups are not to be dismissed. Based on Friday's performance, an extra 6 points would do no more than get us into the play-off rather than automatic relegation, if we were lucky. Being turned over by a newly-promoted team is more likely to damage players' confidence and set their preparation back by a couple of weeks than help them prepare for the new season. -4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Automatic relegation ffs, have a word. One game into a season, a 0-0 draw and you've got us going down We weren't 'turned over' either Edited July 15, 2018 by All the Wine 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We would still be in the cup if we finished second in the group though. We would just have a more difficult draw in the next round. I'm not sure what the season-long effects would be of giving the players only a few weeks of an end of season break, and having them return in mid June. Would it harm our Scottish Cup chances? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe as a result of Friday's performance there is a real chance that we won't have a club to support by a week on Wednesday. Clarke and Dyer have to go now while we still have a chance of getting Gary Locke back.

I wish you had been the manager last season instead of Steve Clarke - that way we would have beaten Aberdeen and went on to win the cup. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chubbs Posted July 17, 2018 Report Share Posted July 17, 2018 On 7/14/2018 at 3:07 PM, Thebigguy68 said: We were without 3 key players. The leagues top scorer from last season, a scotland international right back and a Scotland u21 captain. With the exception of jj, our 3 most influntial players in my book. That and the obvious lAck of sharpness means we can take ABSOLUTELY NO CLUES for that game as to what kind of season we will have. Sc is holding out for mulumbu. If that doesn’t work out we’ll sign a cm and a cd. Chill everyone....... We were without JJ last night as well ... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bute-killiefan Posted July 17, 2018 Report Share Posted July 17, 2018 (edited) It is the worst Killie team in my 200 years as a Kilmarnock fan. What I'd give to have Aime Koudou, Eric Joly, François Dubourdeau or David Merdy back Clarke should be sacked and we should be looking to bring McCulloch back. Pay him anything, this is SOS Edited July 17, 2018 by bute-killiefan 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caldow Posted July 17, 2018 Report Share Posted July 17, 2018 Well that’s is f**ked because St Mirren tore us apart think what Spartans will do. I think they could finish top 6 or even challenge for a European spot. What Spartans players do you think Rangers and Celtic should sign? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm no sure Dave Kings got the money to get Gerard Butler and Dominic West on a season long deal. They're proper box office, unlike the football teams you mentioned. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
