Fletch Posted September 1, 2019 Report Share Posted September 1, 2019 Been superb for us. He hasn't really did well this season but the couple of years prior he was fantastic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zorro Posted September 1, 2019 Report Share Posted September 1, 2019 Things change. Players leave. And time doesn’t stand still for anyone. Big Kirk was great for us and we were good for him. A move to Dundee United would be good for him at this stage of his career. I couldn’t see him being anything but a bit part player for us now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If true then he will go or should go with all our thanks and take his place as one of the most amazing cult heroes weve ever had.

Thebigguy68 Posted September 1, 2019 Report Share Posted September 1, 2019 I think this is likely to have been in the works for a few weeks. Thought something up when the hendry stuff going on. Great servant but it’s part of the transition of old and new. Others likely to fade into edges of squad as season goes on. But never to be forgotten. Part of our golden generation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killie89 Posted September 1, 2019 Report Share Posted September 1, 2019 If this is true then I’m not entirely surprised. He’s been a great servant these last two years - the sheer passion and commitment he showed every time he played for us was something that took me a bit by surprise. But to be honest it was worth him signing for us just so we got to witness the Ryan Jack shenanigans - it was horrible behaviour, but hilarious at the same time! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Travis Posted September 1, 2019 Report Share Posted September 1, 2019 He’s been a good player for us and a decent servant to the club. Surprisingly so, some might say. Would go with nothing but best wishes I’d think. Probably wouldn’t hurt the new manager to make some changes and assert his authority though. This seems a pretty clear way of doing just that. Don't have a bad word to say about him, but he’s coming to end of career and it’s not like it’s a huge loss. I don’t really feel like we’re any weaker, particularly if yesterday is a sign of things to come. Dundee United are on the up so it’s a good move for them, Kirk, and maybe creates some space in our wage budget from moving on a senior squad member. He’d want to have a serious word with his Mrs though (unless he thinks she’s a viable means of career communication, which seems a bit tragic). 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanyon Posted September 1, 2019 Report Share Posted September 1, 2019 Fair chance he’ll be back next season winding us all up at rugby park! Remember the kind words if that happens lads. Hope it works out for him as he really did give us his all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casual observer Posted September 1, 2019 Report Share Posted September 1, 2019 Great over the last two years for us and the type of player we’ve lacked since Pasca left. You’ve just got to take the odd mad moment with a character like his but 99% of the time he was excellent and led the defence superbly. Goes with thanks and best wishes, the big male model from Drongan!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supermac Posted September 1, 2019 Report Share Posted September 1, 2019 If it’s true good luck KB on your future ventures he was the right fit for us at the right time a big dirty bugger who would do anything and wind up anyone to get the job done who do we have to take his place as the hard man defender 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigel4 Posted September 1, 2019 Report Share Posted September 1, 2019 He's been solid for us after a bit of a ropey start. As has been said above, I loved his celebrations against Rangers, and his antics in the 1-1 game where he got Ryan Jack(?) sent off before they missed the penalty and Burke then scored was brilliant. There's also a really good video of him running the length of the park at Murrayfield to celebrate after Frizzell's winner. All the best big man 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SM21 Posted September 1, 2019 Report Share Posted September 1, 2019 Arguably him getting Ryan jack sent off was the spark at the beginning of the Clarke revolution. Goes with best wishes but del Fabro and possibly hendry will be more than adequate going forward 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mathematics Posted September 1, 2019 Report Share Posted September 1, 2019 Never had my opinion turned so much as with KB. Great player to have on your team. Look forward to him winding us up if he ever plays against us again. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigYin Posted September 1, 2019 Report Share Posted September 1, 2019 KB has been fantastic for us over the last 2 years. Was sceptical when we first signed him but has proved myself and many others wrong. That said I do think age has started to catch up with him and his decision making of late has been questionable so a freshen up of the defence with some younger legs isn’t a bad thing 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chubbs Posted September 1, 2019 Report Share Posted September 1, 2019 As has been said numerous times already ... he was a bit of a 'WTF' signing and that was fully justified in his first few performances where he sold several goals. However the arrival of SSC completely revived the big man's career and catapulted him to cult status amongst the theatre goers. If this rumour turns out to be true then thanks for the past two years and all the best for the future. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrestersKtid Posted September 1, 2019 Report Share Posted September 1, 2019 Sad to see the big man go, always gave 100% . He Always loved sticking a couple fingers at the old firm. Getting Ryan jack sent off on lead up to that burkey equaliser in Clarke’s first game was delicious 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
