Good 3 points, a well deserved victory in the end. Murphy showed great composure for his 2 goals, hopefully that will give him a bit of confidence going into Thursday night.

 

Thought we were better defensively when Cummins came on to partner Hutchinson, felt that Ramsden was getting caught under the ball too much misjudging the flight of it. All 3 subs that came on did well, was impressed by Hetherington who looked to have a decent touch and was composed on the ball. Zaine filled in well for Hammell, looks to have a bit more going forward than Hammell and defensively looked sound. Law looked the best player on the park until he came off.

 

 

Mon the Well!

.Echo your sentiments and add that apart from the soft goal we lost the defence looks quite comfortable. Big Kerr looks a very useful addition and could be a bit of a utility player.

Fantastic performance and result today. Feared the worst seeing as we hadn't won at Rugby Park for so long, but the boys went about the job well. Zaine looked comfortable going forward and back, Murphy was back to his best, and Hutchinson grows and grows with each game. Ramsden's injury will keep him out for Thursday, which is only downside, but Cummins made some great blocks, so shows we have good back up.

Ojamma had his best game for a while as well, but needs to be less greedy, but just shows he's eager to get a goal from somewhere. Should have squared for Murphy when Flow and I were shouting at him to, but his running and harrying never stopped.

The win was needed ahead of Thursday, for the confidence boost. There's no doubting it will be as you if not tougher than Pana, but with games under our belt and a somewhat settled side, I'm sure they'll go out and give their all. Roll on the Europa!

Hutch? - he was a f...kin bombscare for 90 mins today. Got dragged all over the pitch during one spell in the middle of the first half and looked very uncomfortable all game. Transfer talk, getting to him perhaps. Ramsden was 'caught under the ball, trying to do the job of 2 centre backs while Hutch made his way back from his wanders up the park - McCall at one stage was almost apoplectic.

 

Agree with others though on the performances of the subs and Zaine. We looked dangerous on the break and despite having to dig in, looked the more likely to score, Ojama and Murphy caused their defence problems all afternoon with their work rate and trickery.

 

A great three points. Roll on Thursday

Highlights up on YouTube now:

 

Seems to be more Motherwell than Killie judging by these, and could have been a couple more goals from the looks of things. A couple of ambitious volleys from Higdon that could have been great had they been on target. Fantastic ball through from Higdon to split the defence wide open for the second goal.

 

A couple of scrambles in our defence, perhaps Killie could have got more bar a cracking save from Randolph.

 

Murphy looked confident at both goals though, bit of luck with the first but two tidy finishes. Lets hope he can keep his confidence up for Thursday and into the weekend!

Great ball from Higdon to set up Murphy. That Killie defence was awful though!

 

Yes, had he been in their half he would have been offside. Why in the name of hell did they have such a high line at 1-1 after 35 minutes? Wasn't there but that was just unacceptable defending. Good ball and run nonetheless and great composure from Murphy for both goals.

well deserved 3 points and nice to see Jamie get two goals, thought Henrik put in a great shift - work ethic has defo improved

 

hopefully those 2 mentioned above will be able to take confidence and give us something special on thursday night

 

also good to see Humphrey back in the team - like him or loath him, we're a better team when he plays

 

can take mostly positives from the game - but why can we not deal with Harkins? (everytime we play them?)
