grumpyespana Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 Glad the two teams below us failed to gain ground on us in the end we were lucky to get a draw but we move on to another big game next week guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbee647 Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 Have to agree, on the day two evenly matched teams, can’t complain we have won twice at Rugby Park this season. Unfortunately too many fans think if we don’t hammer everyone outside the OF 4-0 we have played badly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jock _turd Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 I would not have grudged them the win to be honest. They put us under real pressure throughout the game. I thought they would get a winner so happy with the point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dsjambo Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 Killie are a decent team and deserved at least a draw today but we didn’t help ourselves with the team selection. I never think we are comfortable with Kingsley and Cochran both in the team. Trying to fit in two left backs isn’t easy as you often see when Scotland have Tierney and Robertson in together. Kingsley does a job at CB but is better at LB defensively and is a threat going forward as well. For me Kingsley plays LB with Cochran challenging to get in, this is no criticism of Cochran as I like him as a player but it very often doesn’t work very well with both in the same team. That’s my opinion anyway, others may differ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jambof3tornado Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 More important not to lose the game. Nobody gaining ground a bonus. Lots of below par performers in white today. Struggled to stop vassell winning easy balls all game. Tait very forward thinking with the pass for our goal but also caught on the ball once or twice. Dexter...wow. terrible. Can we not just find a decent right back???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy Brown Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 4 clear cut headers from Wright and Findlay, all just off target. A fantastic stop by Clark from a Vassell header. Maybe another couple headers by Eatkins. Killie are a very decent side with a huge aerial threat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AC Mallin_51 Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 Killie are a decent side, they’ve turned over both sides of the old firm, Celtic twice and took a draw at parkhead. The 2 results are Rugby Park now look very good. We surely must be one of the few teams they haven’t beat this season? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the players who travelled a lot in the last two weeks, like Lembikisa and Vargas, tired early so leaving the subs so late seemed strange.

1953 Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 Disappointed that we couldn't keep out first half dominance going in the second half, but happy to take a draw at the end of the day, as Killie looked more likely to snatch a winner. Given neither Killie or St M picked up any points on us a draw isn't a disaster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye Mcinnes knows what he is doing tbh. Kennedy and Armstrong could have seen us beat today without too many complaints. Im seeing it as 2 points denied to them, which is probably just as important as our point gained. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OTT Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 I hate the league structure. It encourages teams to play hyper defensive - he's playing with 4 CBs FFS We need a bigger league.

vegas-voss Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 They know what they are doing balls out to Kennedy or Armstrong and both deliver brilliant balls into the box.They also shoot from anywhere knowing a deflection leads to corners and the delivery will be very good creating more panic and chances.I do think this Killie side are more decent to watch than latter McInnes Aberdeen sides though.

Mixes up long ball and playingl from the back. However, still on the break style, so suffers v lower teams. Who does that sound like?

Bob Loblaw Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 I don't think we played that badly. See a lot of negative comments but Killie are a good, well organised team, they aren't just going to let you play through them. It was a hard fought game and a draw was the right result. And it's a far better result for us than them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
