Dundee FC vs Kilmarnock FC & Kilmarnock FC vs Dundee FC


Recommended Posts

Is it because he's foreign he gets the blame? 
There was more than enough talent in that Kilmarnock squad to not get relegated. That isn't Alessio's fault. Bewildering he's getting cast up about it after being away for so long. He left 18months ago - with the team sitting fifth in the league. 

I’m not blaming Alessio, i would’ve loved it to have worked out. It would’ve been refreshing and different. This is down to the players. Totally. Also BB just trying something too out of the park for a club the size of Killie.

Killie have, quite literally, done a The Caley.  3rd to relegated in 2 seasons.

I could have seen this happening last year tbh. The team was in freefall when the season was stopped.

Appointing Alex Dyer was a dreadful move in hindsight.

Recruitment has been appalling for the past couple of years. Case in point, signing a half decent keeper would probably have earned enough points to keep us up comfortably.

A lot of that must rest with James Fowler as DoF.

Exactly. If their downfall started at that point then blame Kris Boyd for his player revolt.

 

thank you.

I think that’s it. No way would Boyd be blaming him if he was one of the boys.

Alessio was probably a risky appointment, but in the circumstances, with a stable squad that had qualified for Europe comfortably the previous season, there was probably scope to take a gamble? Either way we have an awful tendency to blame the foreigner in our football, I can't see how Alessio can be held responsible for a relegation that occurred 18 months after he left, especially given that there has been 3 transfer windows since then.

Similarly Daniel Stendel at Hearts was left with an injury ravaged and unbalanced squad at Hearts, but at least those who point the finger of blame for Hearts relegation at him can with some justification, point to the fact that he was in charge when it happened.

Be interesting to see what Killie do next, who are the 4 or 5 players under contract for next season?

Take  your Rangers obsession elsewhere please.
Dundee are a big enough team that the love of the team outweighs the bitterness towards either cheek of the OF erse.
Seems even an historic double  win hasn't changed that mindset in Perth and elsewhere yet.
Thank you.


Big enough but not big enough to stop you having a big team!

Your mate has a very vivid imagination.... that never happened, I was there.

Lafferty came out to ask if they could be allowed to go home as Dicker & Broadfoot were to scared to come out the dressing room and face the 50 or so fans assembled. 

It was made very clear to him nobody had any intention of harming anyone or their property, in fact plenty of the other players had left by this point with no threats of violence or damage to their cars, only our frustrations were vented.....

Christ the Police, who arrived earlier, on mass, outnumbered us at that point ffs.

Some of the assembled fans ran after cars. They even ran after the media lot thinking it was players ffs. They were certainly trying to get through the gate, why else would they shake it with vigour until the thing was actually moving? Players this season have went out that way in their cars. Last night it was deemed too dangerous and they were sent up the opposite end and out that way. Same with players who live over the road and who came to the stadium on foot. They saw the reaction from fans and were told to go out the long way rather than have 30 or so fans chase after them. There was 8 police there last night, they even told the club staff and stewards that there wasnt enough of them to be able to do anything. Not saying everyone that was there after the game wanted trouble but there was an element that was looking for it

Just watching some clips online and the Killie throw-in that leads to our first is absolutely terrible. He takes about 30 seconds to decide what he's going to do, then throws it straight to a Dundee player 10 yards from the nearest Killie player. :D:D:D

There's a difference between being too concerned with my own club than having a diddy mindset with the Rangers like most of you small clubs on here.

Thank you.
