glenburn bud Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 That’s yet another game we should have taken at least a point from, but again we have the same problem in not taking chances or working the keeper. We definitely have a better side than last season, but teams who can’t score goals usually end up relegated. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malky3 Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 The first and probably only decent delivery from a set piece all game long and it's a match winner for Kilmarnock. Up to the point where Andreau went off injured St Mirren looked the team more likely to score, but when you take him out the team St Mirren have no creativity at all. I don't know if anyone else is feeling the same though. I'm really not enjoying watching St Mirren this season. The way the squad was being built I was expecting a season of deep defending but I also thought St Mirren would offer some good quick counter attacking as well. That's not transpiring at all and I think - for me anyway - it's making St Mirren a very hard team to want to pay money to watch. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mathematics Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 I feel like I’ve been mugged watching that game today. Can’t even imagine how bad it must feel for St Mirren fans. nevertheless, juggernaut. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killiepiemuncher Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 I don’t care if people feel short changed with the result or performance. These things will sort themselves out with new players when they become available. I don’t care if it’s 1 nil to Killie all season, I want a 3 rd place finish and another crack at Europe next season with a better organised team. I want what Celtic and Rangers are getting just now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the west curve Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 I hope our two central defenders are not badly injured. To lose both would be a big setback. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St Mirren had good defensive shape and team structure about them today, that i did not see last year. Went a bit route one when attacking but i think you will finish higher this year than last...

Unfortunately, we didn't have enough guile to profit from this. I thought you passed the ball well, but created very little in the final third. Brophy was as quiet as I've seen him, and Hladky really didn't have a save of note to make all day. However, at least you managed to hit a corner in the direction of one of your, sadly unmarked, players and scored a goal. Whether you played badly or not, that was two pretty evenly matched teams out there today. Unfortunately for us, our forwards failed to deliver. If we don't sort that out, then we'll be seeing a repeat of last season's travails. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Estragon Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 No idea how we won that one tbh, had St Mirren beaten us by a couple of goals I'm not sure I'd have had many complaints. Got to be worrying for Buddies, hate to say it but these are the kind of results that get you relegated. Desperately unfortunate. For Kilmarnock, I thought the midfield 3 were exceptional as ever. No idea what was wrong with Miller, but Burke certainly livened things up when he arrived. Hoping for good, or reassuring at least, news on Findlay - he will be a massive loss. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we don't sort that out, then we'll be seeing a repeat of last season's travails. We were very comfortable with the ball in defense and midfield. We do not panic and other players move for us to pass to. We rarely punt up park while under pressure. We do keep our shape well while defending. We had 63% possession today which is probably 20% up on a typical Steve Clarke Killie team... however... If we only had a Greg Stewart type of player up front to hold and move like he did last year. We would create much more up front... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthBank Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 That's poor service from us however I'd ask why didn't folk buy tickets in advance? It is the responsibility of both clubs to encourage advance purchase of tickets in such a situation when tickets are required for entry. Actually I thought there would be more than the 1,000+ St Mirren fans that attended.Because we are used to just pay at the gate at Rugy Park and have done so for decades. There was no information on the new setup. SMFC were selling tickets but also said you could get entry on the day but no explanation of what was involved. And apparently 40% St Mirren season tickets do not stay in Paisley so going into Paisley to buy a ticket is nonsense for the likes of me that now live in Ayrshire.Why do Clubs (not just Killie) make something so simple so difficult? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stu80 Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 Anyone got a replay yet if Andreu’s miss? I thought at the game he was clattered and it should have been a pen. Wanting to see if I was right or made an arse of myself protesting it to my mates 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do Clubs (not just Killie) make something so simple so difficult? I agree 100%.Its not like there is limited space in the stadium.We have more empty seats that filled seats most weeks. For a large number of our away games recently we were told we MUST buy tickets in advance only to be told in the 24 hours before the game that tickets will be available on the day. Such difficulties together with the pricing hardly encourages fans to attend games and that's before the game starts. The product on the park aint great either so some would say why bother and indeed many don't bother. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got to be worrying for Buddies, hate to say it but these are the kind of results that get you relegated. Desperately unfortunate. We are in a bit more of a fortunate position than we've been over the last couple of years, though. In Januarys past, we've routinely needed around 10-11 players out and 10-11 players in. This time around, we need to recruit effectively for 2 or 3 attacking players and really, that's all. I don't know if that's easier or harder but probably harder. If you're bringing in close to dozen players, you throw shit at the wall and inevitably something will stick (unless you're Alan Stubbs)....if you only need two or three bodies, you better get them right, or else. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your corners were a sight to behold. 2 of the worst hit I’ve ever seen in the 2nd half in the space of a few minutes, the first was so over hit it almost went out on the full on the other side of the park for a throw in then the next was so under hit it didn’t even clear the first man. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lurkst Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 Our away fan entry procedure needs to be sorted pronto. Fair play to the Saints fans for not causing a dangerous crush or forcing open any gates. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmy boo Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 Didn't make the game yesterday as went to wine tasting soiree in Ayr. The mods will be worried this thread is too free of abuse and heads gone!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
