  1. In his defence, and probably counts for nothing, the referee was looking right at the incident from about ten yards away and saw nothing wrong.
  2. No excuses. No pissing about with formations. Play to our strengths not to nullify theirs. It wouldn't kill our season but in my mind anything less than three points is unacceptable.
  3. 95m 10s according to BBC although they also state that Keith Lasley was sent off for a bad foul. The naughty boy.
  4. Paul Mills was the name that sprang to mind when I saw this thread. Played some great games as a sweeper pre-season but rarely featured apart from a notable sub appearance at Dunfermline where he came on for the injured Joe Wark and scored a last minute winner. Seem to recall he played for Falkirk after us before completely disappearing.
  5. I seem to recall the facial injury he received was the reason he grew a beard. This was a great game, I also think that we started with, I think, Colin McAdam at right back and he got subbed off soon after we went two down.
  6. Wouldn't it be respectful to have a minute's silence rather than applause at our next home game. Oh, checked the fixtures.
  7. What a sad loss, a truly great player and a real gentleman as well. RIP Joe.
  8. Over two months after the incident. Somebody's had a long summer holiday. This should have been done and dusted as quickly as the individual player punishments.
  9. I also think he would have been better getting some more first team experience but I imagine the press in Scotland, and Rangers fans, would be hounding him at every opportunity up here after that last game.
  10. There were some but not many in the Cooper. Two sitting on their hands around C10 and two at the front around A12. They all disappeared after the first goal. In fairness they didn't bother anyone around them but might have been different if they'd scored.
  11. In the course of a normal game Erwin's push would have merited, at worst, a yellow card. Looking at the TV footage I don't think Craig Thomson even saw Erwin's part in what happened so for him to dish out a red for it seems very unfair. Worth an appeal?
  12. If St Mirren lose tonight then I think they'd just send them to Firhill again as their season would be all but over. The major question is the play off place between us and Ross County and I don't think they'll give one team the advantage of more home games than the other. But this is the SPFL!
  13. We've only ever fallen victim once. We have never been 'rewarded'. We had only 18 home games once and that saw us swap a home game against Celtic ( and all the hospitality and income that came with it). Honestly, if we end up getting shafted then someone needs to be threatening legal action. The obvious choice is to leave Kilmarnock unbalanced. Rangers and Celtic have never ever had an unbalanced league season. Hmm, I wonder why that is?
  14. i don't think there's a hard and fast rule on it but I know Killie and Inverness in the past disprove your theory. I don't think they'd want to court controversy by leaving us with less home games than our nearest rivals. They're saving all the controversy for the push to get The Rangers into the top division. Given our away form if we only get two home games we are definitely doomed.
  15. We shouldn't do. The SPFL would be leaving themselves open to accusations if they don't keep teams near the bottom playing 19 home and away. Looking back it tends to be teams whose season is effectively over who get shafted. The only major exception to that was last year when Aberdeen only had 18 home games, but had previously had three seasons with 20 home games. I think Killie will end up short on home games this time.
  16. Lets Killie play on for 30 seconds then pulls up play with Coyne going clear!
  17. Indeed it was, one of Andrew Waddell's many bizarre decisions that day. Mind you, we were owed that one after Louis Thow.
  18. Must take something, preferably all three points. Don't care how.
  19. Man City have just paid a potential half a million for a 14-year-old. World's gone mad
  20. Re the second clip, the penalties that the Old Firm have been given down the years border on criminal.
