Bullshitters gonna bullshit

A huge three points that. Our first win since the SF drubbing and with tough games against both Edinburgh clubs coming up this week. And to see a game out from a winning position. It wasn’t great and it wasn’t pretty and we’ve still got a lot to learn as a team but we managed to do it. Hopefully we take a confidence lift from that.

The Kilmarnock X account makes for some glorious reading about Kettlewell. ”6 defeats in a row, no one else would get away with that. Sack him” ”Kettlewell out. A cheap appointment playing out as we all predicted. Utter dross from recruitment to tactics. Get him binned tonight” “SK it’s time to go” Bascially EVERYTHING that was being said by our fans over the last two years. ‘Some Motherwell fans really are deplorable human beings’ though eh???

Well it was a tough watch in that 2nd half and I’m not convinced we would have won had we not got the penalty when we did. But we got there in the end and I’m absolutely delighted with that.

We can’t handle being on the back foot in games. Teams that press us and work the ball in our half and we haven’t a clue what to do.

Dropping off again! Wake up ffs!

Penalty specialist is AP. It’s on a silver platter for us now…don’t balls this up.

Just can’t help ourselves

We couldn’t see out a 3-0 lead against Hearts back in August never mind a 2-0 one which we have always struggled with. I know that this Kilmarnock team aren’t the Hearts side we played that day but we are still us so you just don’t know. Dare I say it, I think we will see this out today and get the win but we’ve got a lot of work to do to make that happen.

Really enjoyed that first half and deservedly 2-0 up. Not over yet though. The next 45 will tell us if we have learned any lessons from previous games when we’ve been in the driving seat.

You’ll be upsetting him, and Ya_Bezzer! with talk like that.

Too early to start getting cocky, this could easily end up another Tynecastle in August yet. Playing some great stuff but we’ve been here before.

Magic!! Now. Don’t do your usual and chuck them a goal please. Just for once 🙏

The talisman again

Beautiful day for a trip down to Ayrshire. I love Ayrshire myself, lovely county, North East and South. Rolling hills and sandy beaches overlooking the firth of Clyde. And some towns and villages with such charming names like Auchinleck, Mauchline and Cumnock. Be even better if we bring three points back up the M77 today.

#Kettlewell’s a wanker! A wanker! A wanker! His heed is like a vampire! A vampire! A vampire! And he’s a fucking liar! A liar! A liar! And that is why we hate him! We hate him! We hate him! Oh oh oh oh ohhhhh! Oh oh oh oh oh ohhh! # I’d love to be the ones to drive yet another nail in his coffin at Killie. Fancy us to win 3-1

Good to see ‘Stepover’ back at the club. Mind the poster (Dundee Utd fan I imagine) JimmyShimmy who posted on here back in the day who absolutely loved Jim Paterson? 😂

Exactly we just lack that bit of urgency when and where it matters and that’s what kills us. With the equaliser today Slattery doesn’t mess about with the corner, it goes in and we get the goal. Bingo!

FT 1-1 Happy enough with that.

See what happens when we up the pace and play with a bit more urgency? Well in EJ

Much the better team here, if only we could make it count where it matters…

2-0 defeat

Fair assessment from JBA post match basically saying we were second best and didn’t defend well enough. He needs to show that he and the team can learn from it though.

My mistake sorry. Yes we have won three league games. But that doesn’t change that both I mentioned were last gasp and one was down to a goalkeeper blunder. In this league to be in any way successful you have to be able to combine a degree of skill with an even bigger degree of physicality. Unfortunately for us we have a little bit of skill in the middle of the park and absolutely zero physicality so therefore we are an ineffective team.

I like him and you can see what he’s trying to do but it’s something that many before him have tried and failed to do. He won’t be here next season indeed I’ll be surprised if he lasts this one.
