Kennedy interfering with the goalie was the only thing anyone could see in the replays. He was to the side of the keeper so feel it was a poor decision. He booked Vinny when he tried to get back up and play on for what would probably have been a goal as well. See losing Madden hasn’t helped our luck with the refs so far anyway. Got a lot of bad calls last season. Not sure why the goal on Sunday was chalked off at Peterhead either. Was right in front of us and we were up on the wall so had a great view . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never seen him play but hearing he is going to be the next Jaap Stam once they juice him up. Anybody have the low down on this particular cog in the mega millions academy conveyor belt? And how good is Kennedy looking, all you naysayers writing him off as pish last season! disgraceful.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone feeling the changes will be for the better but give it a few months then let’s see (hopefully!). Things looked sexy at the start of the Glass reign but turned out the euro opponents couldn’t have been up to much. Put it like this, got a lot more excitement at the start of last season. Hopefully the flair is yet to added to the team though. Not really. I was pretty positive but there was a lot of posts, @tarapoa being a main one who said let's see how we get on when teams aren't playing open football and leaving loads of space at the back etc. I chalked it up to Derek fans being a bit bitter but they were correct. Could hardly accuse the opposition of leaving gaps all over the place against us. Both have sat in with a 4-5-1 formation. That's what we struggled with last year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it’s undeniable that a lot of the sides on the continent play good stuff technically but can be exploited when they leave gaps and aren’t that good. Breidablik in particular fall into that category. Translating that into the domestic game was always a challenge. And yes, Im a bitter Derek fan 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was positive too until that Sunday I travelled down to Kirkcaldy. It wasn't so much the defeat but the complete pig's ear he made of the substitutions that started me thinking he didn't know what we was doing. However, I could barely listen to his interviews from the very start. I found his demeanour extremely irritating. Up until that point, things had been fairly positive, the hammering of Hacken, the goal fest in Iceland followed by a battling home win, a routine home win against United, a last minute win on the plastic pitch in West Lothian. The manner of defeat in Sweden I had brushed off as taking the foot off the gas after winning the tie at home. With hindsight, it was an indication of things to come...

Defensively I think Stewart and Scales are an improved pairing and distribution is better. Aye, we’re a work in process and we could do wi a puckle o additions, but, I can see fae this team is going - much improved on last year. That's the main thing, couldn't possibly be worse than last season, if it was, we'd have to be seriously worried. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's always that balance between entertaining the fans and having the ability to grind out the wins in this league. Derek admittedly could go too much into grind it out mode (especially in his latter years), but Glass went the opposite and whilst it often made our performances more credible against the better sides, we were naive and relatively easy to work out for the other clubs in the league. Hopefully JG can blend us into something that can manage this better. Early signs are that Stewart/Scales will look to play out when it's on, but also just get rid if it's not. There's nothing more entertaining than winning if you're a fan. Panache comes second, and will happen now and again provided there is a winning habit. That includes having to find ways to beat all the 10-men behind the ball brigades that will double-up on our ball players at Pittodrie. They already seem to have a free hit on Vinnie. These LC sections need to be a one-season deal only. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tarapoa Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 Great news on Jack Milne - liked what I've seen so far. Need to get Barron sorted - JG 'envisaged no problems' but that was 2 or 3 three weeks ago. Does he possibly have some scurrilous agent hawking him around the place? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barron signed a new contract in January and has two years left. Should get a pay rise now he's a regular in the first team. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DukDukGoose Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 Apparently Stuart Findlay is signing for Oxford. There was a mad Killie fan on here who used to proclaim he was miles better than McKenna nd would take his spot in the Scotland team. Don't think things could have panned out more differently. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
