I don't get the whole project bair chat,he's 24 that came from a team in the same league,he's hardly some youngster that needs to develop,sadly I think he's as good as he's ever going to be.

For the most part we have been decent defensively under kettlewell but our lack of goals and options up front are putting extra pressure on us keeping clean sheets,before yesterday we lost three on the trot by a goal to nil,if we had a decent striker we could have taking points from those games, especially st mirren.our forward options are pretty poor to begin with but then we're relying on those coming back and staying injury free.i said it a couple of weeks ago that I think we're only a decent striker away from being in with a shout of top six this season,that could make a big difference in a league that is tight as ours.

I've been concerned with our forward line for a few games now but have gave the benefit of the doubt due to the lack of personnel but something really has to give now,to be still playing bair as a lone striker is a joke,the guy just isn't upto the job,was Shaw brought here to play or just a convenient signing to sit on the bench.were at the stage where were needing a clean sheet to get anything out of a game,kettlewell has been great for us but hopefully he has a rethink before our next game.

I think your right there,I've thought the same myself and not just yesterday's game,it's looked that way for a couple of seasons now atleast.

Between last week and today we gave a good account of ourselves,were sitting in a decent position in the league with winnable games coming up and some players back from injury in the not so distant future so we're going along nicely.we deserved something from the st mirren game,we got beat last week with a lucky deflection and today was gutting at the end,hopefully with a bit of luck we can turn games like those in our favour going forward.

I never thought we would lose 3 or 4 nil last week or today,were a decent side that's well drilled and hard to beat but we have next to nothing up front and that's where the issues lie,were a decent striker away from being a good side.

We're a pretty solid team defensively so we should be looking at having a real go here.we definitely have issues up front but putting bain and that bombscare of a swedish centre half under pressure is a must.

Even with better forward players at our disposal we have seen games like today so many times before,we played decent and were comfortable but lose by the one goal,it was a frustrating day all round but we have started the season well and shouldn't let it get us down.i think we're only a decent striker away from being a top six side this season but without one it could go either way.

Kettlewell has confirmed that efford was one of our top earners which is mental,it doesn't sound like we have taking to much of a hit to get rid of him either which is a bonus.

The writing was on the wall for efford since kettlewells comments before the hibs game,they were very similar to danzaki and the next thing he was gone,hopefully it's worked out the same as danzaki who had a club lined up and it didn't cost us any money to move efford on.

Your right,I forgot all about that,probably cause anytime he makes a mistake we concede 😂

Mugabi was outstanding,that was as good as he's played for us.games like today suit him where he can go and attack every ball and clear his lines without thought,it's when he has time to think he can turn into a bombscare at any second.he showed today he can be a good player at our level,he just needs to stay switched on and show it more often.

Great 3 points,it's always good to get one over on them especially now they have that wee nyaff naismith in charge.i was really impressed with us today,some lovely football in the first half including the goal and even when we were backs to the wall a bit in the second half we were comfortable.how good was casey,he was immense today.

Hopefully gent works out like furlong did for us,he seems to have a bit of pace about him so between him and spencer we may be back to young pacey fullbacks that like to get forward.

I wouldn't be surprised if fletcher still signs as well,if the sticking point was it was only a 6 month deal we might need to compromise and get him here to the end of the season,even with shaw signing were still light up front and only an injury away from a crisis again,I think we may see efford move on and and fletcher arrive.

Looks like it's going to be oli shaw

Totally agree,that much improved second half performance more than deserved the result,it does feel like killie have done us at the end of a few games over the years,it's always nice for a bit of payback,you really can't beat a last minute winner.

It's great to know that dick turpin does actually own a claret and amber mask 😀

That's souare going to be missing for the next few games and obika is expected to be out until december.

Obikas problems with injury are there for all to see,between that and his performances last season,for me there was no reason to keep him on.we now find ourselves in the situation where he's here this season but hardly plays which will surely mean that the option of another year next season is off the table or if he is here next season were still in the same boat where he's a year older and hoping he doesn't break down at any second.ive no idea what will happen with biereth,he might be an option in january but right now we need a couple of decent signings up front.

Your right he did,I'm sure it was in the press conference leading up to the hibs game,it sounded like his days were numbered going by kettlewells comments.im not a big fan of efford but think we might need something different in this game that he might provide,the thought of wilkinson and bair as our only options is pretty scary.

Cowardly tackle by dunne that came as no surprise as having seen him enough for us,the guy couldn't tackle a fish supper.he took a leaf out the richard tate handbook of trying to do a motherwell player every time he played against us,I hope any good will towards dunne is gone and he gets it tight anytime he plays against us the cunt that he is.

Fletcher is a player we should have been looking at before bringing back obika and signing bair,he would have been a better option that either of those,we have wilkinson as the target man so adding fletcher now would just give us another big guy up front with not a lot of movement,we need the opposite,were crying out for pace and movement up front.

Aye it'll be best all round if mcginley moved on,what's the deal with soaure,he's injured now as well.ideally we get wilson out on loan and sign another left wing back that will actually come in and start,this shuffling mcginn to the left like we did on saturday isn't the answer either.

Its not ideal but I would start with efford in this game,were definitely going to need a bit of pace and movement up front if we're to get anything from this game,if we fall into the trap of hoofing the ball up to wilkinson and bair then we can forget it,that will suit that kilmarnock defence down to the ground.
