I look forward to your post tomorrow

Yes, people need to know!

Disappointed today. Was hoping for a deluge of incoming players. Ok maybe 1 or 2.

The question is what blows more hot air? Industrial fans or Killie fans?

I’m hoping hearts European games will take its toll on them and we can perform well enough to grab 3rd spot.

So effords and shields competing for right fwd? O’Donnell and McGinn for right back. Actually might not be competition as much as one starts, can go at it 100% and replaced by the other as they get tired, in order to keep up intensity ? That’s what Hammel’s comment alluded to for his subs at Aberdeen.

Bevis to the rescue !

Not long till window closes so hopefully some news to come soon or are we waiting on free agents but I’m not sure who free agents are? Is Snodgrass one?

That would apply to all clubs he is considering then since there has been no news about him signing for anyone?

I think Shields can contribute too. He does need to be stronger but I also think we need to play him passes inbehind the defence to run onto.

I also struggled to see the hand ball and thought the guys arm was actually behind the line anyway and so if it did hit his arm the ball was already out of play. But I’ll take it !! Finally getting to see the good side of things evening out over time!

You are already ahead of me on that front but I know there are automated vision inspection systems out there that do wonders with a video image.

Be interesting to see if Killie go for the “ stifling” approach or make an open game of it. Maybe we’ll get a look at McKinstry at some point. Hoping we can put up another 3 points to keep momentum going.

I suppose it depends on your view of complicated.

I don’t know the technical design of the VAR system but it’s not super hi tech to draw the lines correctly. I would hope the design would encompass data processing to ensure the lines are drawn correctly. Having said that, they should put a very short time limit on reviewing offside decisions with the lines. Quick look and if it’s not obvious, the officials’ call stands. The time consuming microscopic analysis is what wastes it.

I think (hope) it will eliminate obvious dreadful offside calls and blatant incidents that our officials somehow manage to miss. As for incidents where it’s a judgement call like red or yellow, was it a foul or not for a penalty, I fear those will go the OF way as mentioned but that may just be paranoia on my part. We should have our VAR teams outside of Scotland.

Only if we’re the ones drinking ! ooooops. I’m way too slow. Steel man just said as much. I think that’s a sign I need a drink. !!

You better watch or you’ll not be fit to type !! ENJOY!!

Thought the ref had a very poor game. Since we won it’s not sour grapes

Certainly a good 3 points to get. Didn’t play as well as last week but as mentioned in other posts we done a great job limiting Livi to really no clear cut chances. Thought our midfield didn’t show for the ball as much as last week and so the football on display not as good as last week. Not entirely unexpected. For 11 men against 10 I thought we could have done a better job of seeing the game out making it a bit easier on the nerves. Effords put in some good work when he came on so seems like Hammy is getting more out of him. All in all a good days work.

We seen it out but I thought we didn’t do a very good job at all in that respect. Should have killed it at the end but late slack pass from KVV and Effords then picking out wrong player and chance was gone.

A couple of weeks ago I would have said “ and all against us”. But now I’ll just add “finishing just behind KVV for top goal scorer”.

I guess they are squad players. Things were much simpler back in the day when you had just the team and the reserves. No subs even. I remember big Peter McLoy getting injured against Killie I think. Someone went in goals and big Peter came back on as outfield player with his wrist bandaged up.

I can see the Lamie change but I think that would be only change to starting line up and see how it goes.

There are 2 teams and then the rest. If any of the rest can raise their game, go on a run or grind out points they are more than capable of top six finish. So IMHO every team in the league should be aiming for top 6 and have a realistic chance of achieving it. Us getting 5th spot last year being a prime example.
