Disappointed not to win that but happy enough not to lose and preserve our unbeaten and clean sheet run.
Again that game highlights our weakness up front but we undoubtedly are more than decent elsewhere on the park.
Hopefully results like today and the other draws we’ve had won’t come back to haunt us but you’ve got to say we are in with a big shout of top six this season.
We were pretty decent yesterday i thought but again lacked the cutting edge. With the exception of the opening period of the 2nd half we matched up with and at times nullified a strong Hearts side. Eli Just was brilliant again.
We’ve definitely shown improvements in our game management over the last month and credit to JbA for learning lessons from the LCSF debacle.
VAR is utter poison. I don’t care if that was technically the correct decision or not, it is absolutely sucking any joy and spontaneous moments of enjoyment out of the game.
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.
