CallumPar Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 You are both morons, as no defense of Davo’s comments has been offered, and whatever they were, they have been condemned.Do your fans make plans like this for every player that has ever dived against you? I think it’s fairly clear the answer to that is no. So you have to ask, what’s the difference here? Genuinely, the only difference is that a player has been suspended for making discriminatory comments towards him. Therefore, it’s pretty clear that this planned abuse is due to him being abused by one of your players and anyone taking part is quite clearly going to be deemed to be supporting Davidson’s actions. Divers are normally booed etc for the rest of a match (at most), then forgotten about/left alone. This is clearly more than that. It really isn’t hard to understand. You will, quite rightly, be branded a racist if you abuse Todorov because a (now former) Raith player was found guilty of discriminatory comments made towards him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CallumPar Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 I see Fraser Murray’s signed for Killie. Another signing that I’d have been happy enough with, but is unlikely to completely dominate this league. Killie’s signing policy seems to be to sign players that have been ‘alright’ at other championship clubs, rather than players who have excelled at this level (or above). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chubbychops Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 I didn't want us to sign Fraser Murray. Just didn't do enough for me. I'm a bit surprised too with some of the players Killie are signing. For team keeping the same budget as last season, I was expecting a good bit better quality. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAFC. Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 Would have been a bit of a gamble. Will have cost us a fair whack and didn’t show it enough when he played. Would have took him, absolutely, as I think he is a fair talent, but would rather us take our time and assess our options as could end up getting someone a lot more consistent. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stellaboz Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 Will need a new goalkeeping target now, then. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure who is good enough and available tho. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing else. That booing diminished over the ensuing years until most recently it was replaced with mockery at how far off the pace he was. So it's fairly clear that the answer is, some players do continue to get grief beyond the 90 mins. And it's hard to argue with someone showing disapproval for a cheat. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do you seem more upset by a footballer “diving” than you are about racial abuse?

RandomGuy. Posted June 18, 2021 Share Posted June 18, 2021 Signing "middling" players who knew the division, and turning them into more than the sum of their parts, is how Tommy Wright operated when with us a lot, so presumably he's hoping that's the magic formula for him at Killie. Can't help but feel he's underestimating the division a bit though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black and White Tragic Posted June 18, 2021 Share Posted June 18, 2021 Pretty sure I already rewrote the lyrics some time back, maybe even on this thread? Can someone please fit Gašpuitis into “Rasputin” by Boney M + Majestic for next season? Feel this will help us be champions x Something like “gah gah Gaspuitis, Lithuanian love machine” 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, so signing folk who are average players in it isn't the same as signing average top flight players. The things he'll expect them to do may well be beyond them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how that approach works when you’re clear favourites for the title though. It’s what McGlynn has done at Raith on a much reduced budget and they got far closer to promotion than anyone thought feasible. Not sure fans will be as accepting next season with expectations higher. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Players aren’t huge names but they are leaders. McGinn, Alston, Stokes, Murray were all captains. Murray/Armstrong are young with potential. Naismith is a good signing, Burke will resign. Then you spend bigger money on quality in attacking areas and GK -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
