  1. @Cameron_Mcd That's hilarious. I came on here I think in March and said he was the worst goalkeeper in the league and people were not having it. Even i didn't think he was that much worse than Shamal George.
  2. It would be interesting to see what Kelly's xG was compared to other goalies in the league. And as I have said before if Kettlewell got his way Kelly would still be starting with Ox on the bench.
  3. I wouldn't judge any of the players on that. Playing a 5-3-2 with the twist that neither of the strikers are actually strikers is crazy. When Mulligan and Mebude got the ball they just charged at goal head down like you would see in a primary school game. They seemed to sit even deeper after half time and were relying on a keeper who hasn't played a game this season rather than Johnson from Hibs who has been playing for Airdrie. I'm sure anyone watching could have predicted that the goalie would eventually sell a goal. Putting on Oné who only has 20 minutes in the Sheffield United first team and then subbing on Jack Milne who is a defender to play up front ahead of Watson and Wales who are getting goals and assists for Killie was very strange. I get the impression that Gemmill hates Scottish football because none of the clubs will employ him.
  4. Beat 2 nil. Unbelievably negative tactics.
  5. Not a bad line up for Gemmill. Mulligan who can't get a look in at Dundee ahead of David Watson and Mebude who is never a striker ahead of Bobby Wales are daft picks but minor by his standard. Killie fans will be raging.
  6. You would hope that would be standard now. When you look at guys we've played recently like Phillips for St Mirren and Miller at Hibs the young boys need all the support they can get to compete.
  7. Aye it was Hong Kong i'm getting mixed up between fake tournaments in Asia.
  8. Great news. He will only get better with more games.
  9. Hopefully he makes the flight home unlike a certain Motherwell player in Japan.....
  10. Stama is currently on the bench for Australia against China. The PRC are winning 1-0. The Aussies have Roles from Hearts and Miller from Hibs playing at the back so China will probably score a few more. Stama has the 9 shirt so he might be in with a chance of getting on.
  11. I thought Balmer had a few ropy moments in defence, he's maybe not suited to playing on the left. Given that Casey won us points with his card i'd have him back in.
  12. I'm watching Rangers TV for the St Johnstone game and there's an interview with Lee McCulloch at HT and he mentioned Chic Young announcing on the radio he had scored a winner away to Mypa when he only hit the post. That was heartbreaking as a kid.
  13. County could have got something today if they played a bit more smartly. They sat in the whole second half rather than go a for second goal.
  14. A lot of empty seats for a stadium at 90% capacity.
  15. Nicky Devlin scored right after him. Two cracking goals. It's been a good game, much better than the dross first half of Villa vs Man Utd. Devlin has to start for Scotland ahead of Ralston.
  16. He dropped him for Max Johnston. No one in the squad should be untouchable and if you look at the last two goals we've conceded he's been shocking plus he lost his man for the penalty last week. He's also offering nothing in attack. In the first half Miller made a break and ended up losing it because SOD made no effort at all to support him. Kaleta looks a better player and we will need to be at our best for the week with Celtic (h), Dundee Utd (a) and the Rangers semi.
  17. Aye but he went completely off the boil from about the time of that game at Tynecastle when Clarke was there to watch him and it felt like he had a serious chance of picking up caps but he seriously shat the bed. He had good games here and there after that but never a good run of form.
  18. I can see Watt and Sparrow coming in for the Dundee game which could make a big difference. Kaleta has to be close to a start as well now.
  19. Ox. It's crazy to think we could still have been stuck with Kelly if Rangers didn't take him off our hands.
  20. That second half performance should be our bench mark. We are a totally different team when we bin Davor. All the subs were great and big Ox is in ridiculous form.
  21. Some finish from Halliday. He doesn't do much but he's still got a bit of quality.
  22. Stama is looking like another dud. Maybe not lol
  23. Robinson makes you long for the days of Curtis Main. We have been rotten.
