A wee trip to cauld Dundee a hard fought victory for the Steelmen. Will Stama score from open play or the penalty kick. Let’s do it! COYW

Charles-Cook, Said, Sparrow - who knows? Maybe Stuparević will make a surprise return.

Normally a hectic period of games like this would kill us with injuries and players running out of gas. But fantastically our players have waltzed thru it, due in no small way to JBA building a squad, versus a team, and making changes that allow players to rest/recover while still getting performances and results.

I’m assuming that a cook will fill in for JT when he’s at Afcon.

The way Stama's playing reminds me of the way Theo played in the first half of the season (but Theo only scored 4 goals during that period). The question is will he be capable of producing a second half of the season like Theo. He takes a good pen, though.

I'm not Wellfans biggest advicator in his views "initially" From Kettlewell to Stam he is proven right in the long haul usually. The problem I now have with Stam is 2fold - and as an optimist I hope he cant sort. 1. The ball bounces off him one foot every time it is played to him - we don't need someone necessarily that give more goals but what we do need is a striker is who can take the ball in and feed others. 2. If you listen closely to the coverage the commentator he says AP "was caught in his heels there" -a better aspect is finding someone who isn't Over to you AP or Wellfan let's see who is right in the long haul.

Johnny K for me. Thought he defended well and a threat going forward, especially second half. Also done great to cut out a Livingston break in the first. SOD came close. Great shift, few mistakes with throw ins apart, and nearly on the end of a chance late on. Special mention as well to Charles-Cook, who I think needs more minutes. Persisted all game and great assist for the 3rd.

I was a bit worried about this game beforehand and thought Livingston looked a really stuffy side at times to begin with. Good finish from Watt to go one up but not really comfortable until the second. Livingston had a few flurries at 2-0 but good move to seal it and could have been more late on. Most pleasing thing for me was the amount of changes we can make, taking account of the of the opposition, and no real drop off on performance. Positive result next week, home game against Dundee then the old squirm to end the year. Hoping for a good month and maybe a real special season. Onwards and upwards!

That third goal really was a thing of beauty. Passed all the way from our pen box. Is this really our team we are watching? A year ago it was dire turgid shite. We are Barcelona in comparison to that. I hope we can keep this going and get into Europe. Would love to see how this works in a Euro comp. Certainly different to what we have had before

I'm not having Stama's miss today as a sitter. He should have done better with it right enough but that's hardly a sitter. That Hendry header on the other hand.

Johnny K for me all day long. Was at it right from the start and was very aggressive in the tackle and going forwards. Livvy couldnt deal with him and had to resort to kicking him to slow him down, which they did. How Kettlewell never saw a player in this boy is anyones guess.....

Was waiting for this. Yes, was a bad miss. Should have scored. But point me in the direction of any other chances he had today other than his penalty. On the other hand Hendry missed 2 just as bad but he runs about and does things so doesnt get the same criticism? For clarity, Im not excusing Stama's misses. Just putting context around why his goal return might not be what would want/expect.

Given the changes we made again, I thought that was a very decent performance, albeit with still room for improvement. We are a better team with Watt in midfield no doubt. But felt that when he had to go off, Priestman did well and Fadinger really stepped up. Thought Johnny K was excellent all day until he had to go off after a couple of really late tackles on him. Thought SOD looked rusty first half, but came onto a bit more of a game second half. 3 goals.going on 5 or 6 with gears to spare. 6 points off top. Cant really complain.

Johnny K had a rough start with us and took him a while to get game time but he’s turned into a solid player for us. Well done Johnny K

Didnt see too much complaints from Livi players

I see what you did there

Was taking a wee sanbatical from social media. Thanks and good to be back.

Surely that means he resigns in the morning and blames it all on the fans.

I can't possibly believe that. Anyways, welcome back San. You've been missed of late. Your posts are always worth reading.

Camera zoomed in on him in the stand , head in his hands looks a seriously haunted figure .

Yes, he did, implying VAR got it wrong. BBC also suggesting same. Really?

Wonder if he'll comment on the abuse he was giving the assistant ref.

Leopard doesn't change its spots.

Mate who's a Killie fan sitting in the stand just text me to say he's getting dogs abuse.😁.
