  1. Hes a fairly average premiership centre-mid. If you can keep him fit, he's a decent player to have, but for us, he struggled to put together any consistent runs in the team..
  2. I believe it is back open albeit under new owners. You should be able to buy a match pass here.
  3. I don't actually think they do, if you look at the deal while we are offering 60 games they are actually only required to show 42 which is still lower than what they can potentially show now. My reading of the above is those extra games would only become 'attractive' if their renegotiation with the EFL loses them games and they need to fill some space in the schedule.
  4. One of the guys on the Killie forum has a ticket counter, current has 962 sold in the Chadwick. https://jsfiddle.net/odfjcn6r/show
  5. I think you can buy the tickets over the phone and pick them up from the SLO on the day if that's any help?
  6. The Frank Beattie is not compliant with EAC Covid regulations. The turnstiles are deemed too narrow and the toilets are inside the stand with only one door for both entry and exit which stops a one way system being in place
  7. Apparently we will hear from EAC tomorrow going by some comments on Kickback.
  8. In pre-season, I have been happy with our overall play for the most part. As other posters have mentioned, we look short upfront. I am still not convinced that Innes has enough to be one of our main strikers this year. In this game, I think it could go either way. We have dominated play in the last two games without being clinical enough to put teams away convincingly. I haven't followed how Ayr have been doing in pre-season apart from their first game, where most of their posters seemed irate at Hopkin. As such, I am not too sure where their strengths lie. Though some recent comments seem to suggest their defence has improved somewhat over the past few weeks. If we can get a striker in, I think we could get a comfortable 2-0 win. Otherwise, a tight affair with us winning is most likely.
  9. So dejected after throwing away the three points. Overall we did pretty well in the first half and played some decent football for once, unfortunately we receded in the second half back to the mean, I would have brought on Pinnock to give us some more fresh legs in the second half to try and get us up the park more to nick a goal.
  10. For what its worth I think the support are heavily divided on Dyer at the moment. The general consensus I would say is that we play better football under Dyer but we don't play winning football when compared to Alessio or Clarke. Under the previous two there was plenty of games where we played some absolutely rubbish football but managed to sneak a goal or hold out for a draw. This was mainly down to the game management, especially under Alessio if we got a goal we would almost stop trying to play football and just keep the ball in the middle of the park for 40-50 minutes and shut the other team out completely. Not nice to watch but it had us at one point sitting very comfortably in the top 6. Whereas with Dyer we seem to score a fair bit and knock the ball around well but then let teams back into the game, this is especially true with the last two Aberdeen games where we should have road out a victory but collapsed towards the end of the games. There is also plenty of the usual speculation that he is the puppet of the players cause he is seen as too close to them to manage them. Some in his defence point to the fact that our squad is lacking in depth, for example our left back Hamalainen had played about 5 games professionally before coming to us on loan but has been our only left back option all season. O'Donnell has played god knows how many games the past three seasons with Scotland games chucked in as well without much of a break. Personally I would want some else in, the fact he prefers Broadfoot over Del Fabro is something that puzzles me, seeing as the Del Fabro and Findley partnership was one of the key reasons why we had a great spell under Alessio. Not to mention that it lends credence to the idea he is playing second fiddle to the players. He also said at the AGM that Stephen Hendrie had not impressed him at all yet in his post match after the Hamiltion game where Hendrie had played he said that Hendrie had been training well for months and that he was impressed with his skill. Not exactly the worst lie to tell but it doesn't lead me to then trust other things you say.
  11. I say we move to a top division of 18, everyone plays once home and away and that's it. No splits or any of that nonsense. 3 up and 3 down with no playoff's. The removal of 4 games from the calendar allows us to have a proper winter break without cramming everything in when we get back. The championship can be reorganised into a 16 team league along the same principles. The remaining 8 teams for the current setup can be moved into new regional leagues.
  12. He has us locked into a mediocre deal with sky for the next five years and no title sponsor for next season whenever it comes back. On top of his handling of the vote i have no idea why the clubs stick by him.
  13. Had my sides all mixed up. Maybe I should take up your idea and post the Belgian team the wrong way on their pie and bovril.
  14. All I'm trying to point out is that there are numerous places reporting the deal at the £30 million mark rather than the BBC's £20 million. In regards to why I don't think they would accept £20 million, it's simply because it's not a major increase. Bidding only closed a few weeks back and according to a record article we passed on a new deal 18 months ago so why would we suddenly rush to accept a bad deal.
