Kilmarnock v Motherwell 08/01/2025

[wellsince75]

A decent point and very decent league position .

feels very like the GA era where we offer bugger all moving forward .

to have the ball 1/3 of the time , manage 2 shots and only make 120 passes against killie is poor , but not surprising

[thewelllfan]

Whenever we play Killie the game is absolutley stinking same with St Mirren none of us have a clue what to do when the other team concede the ball

[texanwellfan]

Can’t believe we got a point. At one stage I was expecting about 5-0 defeat but hey………….. 2 clean sheets in a row !!!!

[thewelllfan]

Oxborough really the only player I think that's played well there. Casey's made a huge block to stop a goal but was so bad when we had possesion.

[AllyMax]

Will take the point, but that performance would get fitba' banned.

[claretband]

Yet another clean sheet for the Casey sans Blaney combo Weeyin…

Was that not the worst game of football you've ever seen,how many times have away fans been shortchanged. 

[wellfan]

Utterly appalling performance and quite incredible that we came away from the game with a point and a clean sheet. 

[Mootherwell86]

No denying Stuart Kettlewell is doing a good job with us. A very decent point and clean sheet on the road.

That being said, I’d happily never watch one of his teams lineup ever again in my life. 

 

[wellfan]

We conceded 69% possession and 15 corners. Kettlewell is a master tactician. 

[grizzlyg]

Never seen it but sounds like we were fortunate.  The inconsistency from us is baffling but keeps a 6pt cushion over killie so happy enough with a draw

[Richie]

This game was always going to be a shitfest tbh.

Decent point, clean sheet and 3 points off 3rd.

[mfc]

That was even worse than tynecastle but could be an important point come the end of the season so we take it and move on.

[Spit_It_Out]

If i was Killie fan right now i would be bealing lol.A point is a point at end of the day just nothing about us.

Play like this vs Hibs on Saturday and we could get a total pumping beyond pumping need to have a go from the off not sit back.

[Ya Bezzer!]

Decent result, if not performance.

We've lost 2 in our last 8 and one of them was at Celtic Park.

That's reasonable since we've played Rangers, Celtic, Aberdeen, Hearts, Kilmarnock away and Top 6 sides Dundee United and St Mirren.

[fizoxy]

We somehow had a handful of decent chances despite being so bad again. Our defense did a great job with the last ditch blocks, but killie fans must be furious about not being able to take any more than a point from that. 

It was fun listening to killie fans boo us using Dels shitfesting tactics, not so much them booing and slow clapping head injuries.

A good summing up. An important point for us. 

If Killie fans were booing then they should aim that at their own team. At the end of the day their team simply wasn't good enough to earn the win. Yes we were poor but I don't, in any way, feel remorseful or guilty that Killie were robbed by us. If the tables were turned they wouldn't ask the SPFL to give us the 3 points would they. They've done a Dick Turpin to us in the past. Thanks for the point Derek, bring on Hibs. 

[Lobey_Dosser]

A midweek game on a plastic pitch in January is rarely going to be enthralling so happy to gain a solid point and a clean sheet tonight that puts us in touching distance of 3rd. 

I remain uneasy with the two-man midfield and hope we have the personnel available to return to a three. Otherwise, it’s going to be difficult to get a foothold in any game, particularly away from home. We desperately need Seddon back as well to provide some quality in possession. 

[twistandshout1983]

Gladly taking the 0-0 from this game and move onwards 

 

[texanwellfan]

A lot of our players are looking jaded, lethargic and probably carrying niggly injuries due to this run of so many games in such a short period of time. Looks like they need a rest. Hope we can get Seddon and Stam back soon and with new signing maybe we can a bit of life back into the team. SK’s tactics take a lot out of players and we were just totally out of the game today. Huge gaps everywhere 

[thewelllfan]

We could do with a LWB in the mould of Gent tbh just someone that's athletic and decent going forward.

Its turgid, turgid shite, don't give a fuck if the happy clappers are delighted with a point. I'm fed up spending fortunes watching utter dross. Same tactics and style in every game. I feel really sorry for Kai Andrews he will improve fuck all the way we play. Davor can fuck right off in the summer. Waste of fuckin space.

I was being sarcastic about the master tactician point. I agree that it was utter shite, again, and I’m also sick to death spending money to watch Kettleball.

Apologies I'm just so fuckin angry paying out money every week to watch this fuckin dross every week.

[Kmcalpin]

Any quick initial impressions of Andrews? What kind of midfielder is he? I know there's not much to go on.
