EKX16 Posted February 16, 2020 Report Share Posted February 16, 2020 Played well enough but the game could have went either way. Unfortunately for Killie it didn't go our way. Not much in it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piffer Posted February 16, 2020 Report Share Posted February 16, 2020 The effort was there. Unfortunately at times we lacked a wee bit of quality and/or luck. A point would have been a fair result. First half was open and IMO we let ourselves down a bit for the goals. Could have defended both a lot better than we did. Second we had more of a grip on the game. Some of the balls into the box were exceptional and you were just looking for someone to gamble and get on the end of it. I thought we paid the price today for a poor window. It’s sounding like a broken record now but it is being proved regularly. You could see Hibs new signings making an impact and they had options off the bench. We had Kiltie and a young boy who despite a decent run out in the cup we don’t know if he’s there on merit or to make up the numbers. The fact we were going into the final stage needing a goal and our best attacking option despite only using one sub is putting a CB up top reflects badly on Fowler and the board. The manager is now getting performances from the squad but how many times can we keep asking the same 12 or 13 to go to their limit for us before we suffer from burnout. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ki11ie Posted February 16, 2020 Report Share Posted February 16, 2020 Thought we were good today. Played on the front food pretty much all game. Hibs defended well tbf, one of they days some good for you some don’t. Bench showed today how small a squad we have. Fight for top6 mot over. wednesday night absolutely massive now, hopefully that result doesn’t put people of going -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rosskfc70 Posted February 16, 2020 Report Share Posted February 16, 2020 Never deserved to lose today, just never got a break in the penalty box like Hibs got for their 2nd goal , looked like a pen as well for foul on Del Fabro , hopefully we get the breaks this Wednesday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

virtuocity Posted February 16, 2020 Report Share Posted February 16, 2020 Hibs have got a good squad now. I think that their 3 subs would add a lot to our squad as push for a place in the team. We are still doing well with our budget, but as @piffer said, we are very light in numbers ahead of a tough run in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ktid1869 Posted February 16, 2020 Report Share Posted February 16, 2020 Great effort today from everyone they all gave 100%. Just didn't get the breaks when required. Onwards and upwards c'mon killie give us a win on Wednesday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We did look much better when Kiltie came on, but it wasn’t because of anything he did. He was a complete passenger, however the rest of the team upped their game as we chased an equaliser. -5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scouser2 Posted February 16, 2020 Report Share Posted February 16, 2020 (edited) Dominated the second half , great effort by the team after the midweek battles, some amount of balls put in that box but just did not have that end product today as if got equaliser game could have changed .......as others have said the poor transfer window had left us with little options to change a game or for cover if a player has a knock or looking off form......worry is that first choice 10 outfield players been asked to play a lot of games in a short period of time .....they are fit but at any level a player can have an off day which is when you look to your bench or squad to freshen things up or have a plan B Edited February 16, 2020 by Scouser2 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GCM Posted February 16, 2020 Report Share Posted February 16, 2020 Kabamba looks very lightweight, him and Niko need to be more physical. It will be interesting to see their second goal again as keeper did not look good from where I was sitting, their first was a great strike. Only wee Burkey could have got down low enough for our goal, what a player he is for us. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally disagree. As soon as he came in he linked up well with O’Donnell. He got stuck into a massive challenge in the centre of the park; limped back to cover. He showed for the ball at every opportunity. His shot at the end too, I think? No way was he a passenger, in my opinion.

piffer Posted February 16, 2020 Report Share Posted February 16, 2020 I thought Kiltie did well when he went on. He offered something different. Not sure he got long enough though. McKenzie was having a decent game but IMO it wasn’t coming off for him in an attacking sense. Kiltie wanted to play facing their goal and had some good link up play. Got himself into some decent positions and a decent effort at goal from a nothing chance. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silent Bob Posted February 16, 2020 Report Share Posted February 16, 2020 1 hour ago, Ngonge88 said: Keeper is poor for the goal. But the bottom line is it wouldn't of happened if captain fantastic hadn't decided he was going to blatantly kick the hibs player and allow them to swing a free kick in on top of us. But Kopravic is the easy option Dicker tried to win the ball and gave away a foul, that’s his job, he doesn’t always get it right. If he wasn’t putting any tackles in we’d certainly be far worse off. We then didn’t defend the set piece very well. Not one person can take all the blame. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You said fact of the matter is that Kiltie is continuing to impress off the bench. He's not really, he's been ok since he came back. McKenzie is on a very good run of form recently. Kiltie done better in an attacking sense than you today, yes or no Rory ? I gave you praise for the rangers game mate. -7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bbk Posted February 16, 2020 Report Share Posted February 16, 2020 One of those days when nothing fell for us in the box that wee bit of luck just not there thought a draw would have been a fair result but hopefully a win on weds night will keep our season going. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GCM Posted February 16, 2020 Report Share Posted February 16, 2020 Cannot really compare McKenzie and Kiltie on todays game. Rory is there to give some protection to Hamalainen and also to drive forward, when Kiltie came on we had given up protecting Hamalainen and were solely looking for an equaliser, we were throwing caution to the wind so a totally different role. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

funky monkey Posted February 16, 2020 Report Share Posted February 16, 2020 I thought the team applied themselves well, the effort cannot be faulted. The manager has got the team performing once again. We more than matched a technically good Hibs side. What cost us today was gambling on the many cross balls and positioning ourselves for the second ball, we just lacked quality in the right areas and a wee bit of luck. The poor transfer window is going to cost us. We are one creative midfielder away from being a good team and three players away from a decent squad. If we are looking at out of contract players we've got to step that up, because top 6 is still there for us. As it is we've an incredibly important cup replay and then a really tough visit to Parkhead coming up. How much longer can we rely upon the same 12/13 players? The Board and DoF really need to up their game to support the manager and players. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
