Wee Al not not making the squad for Luton's league cup game tonight. Wonder if he has time to find himself a move.
-
Zdravkovski is a defensive mid, and Butcher is too if SK wants to play him there once he's fit. I'd be (pleasantly) surprised if we see more than 2 new faces, and be happy if one of them is a decent striker.
-
For the youngsters reading this, Morrisey used to be in a famous band before he turned into a whack-job conspiracy promoting, racist bigot.
-
And if SK's war chest is empty there may still be options in play with free agents after the official slamming.

'Fess up. Which one of you got hold of Kev's number?
-
I think he fits in well with a back three. And, of course, a consistent run of starts makes a big difference. As long as he keeps his passing simple he is fine.
-
Surprisingly, The Scotsman doesn't even have him listed in their options. They do have Robinson in the running. EDIT: I see The Herald has SK listed, though.

Been following Kev's league form with FC Groningen Three starts in his first three games. Game 1: 3 shots, 0 on target, 0 goals (in a 4 - 1 win) Game 2: 2 shots, 1 on target, 0 goals (in a 1 - 0 loss) Game 3: 4 shots, 1 on target, 0 goals (in a 0 - 0 draw) Currently sitting 7th.

I always enjoy a game against the Jambos.

That seems to have been Killie's superpower so far this season; and it's been working. Great result, especially considering the injury situation, and you can't beat a winner at the death. Keeping us above Rangers and equal with Celtic is a nice bonus too.

Tell me your age without telling me your age. Full backs always took the penalties because their main talent was blootering the ball. Meanwhile, take your pick...

Hope Casey paid at the gate to watch that one go in.

6 month loan to Kidderminster Harriers.

Spittall and McGinn were regularly slagged off as useless in their first season, so not sure that is a good measure of player quality. Same for Goss who many fans were saying was no big loss in the summer. There are countless examples of players we have signed taking a few months to settle in, but every August we see the same old posters rolling out the same tired script. I can only imagine how bad it would be if we'd lost a league match this season. Part of the fun of watching a team like ours is seeing new players and youngsters develop over the course of a season. That is never a straight line progression. If you want a team to buy instant success then Motherwell is not for you. Even Chelsea are struggling with that approach. Grab a beer (or beverage of choice) and enjoy the ride. It's why we love the game.
-
Should be even easier then (even though we are slashing the wages budget this season). Been waiting patiently to see your list of top players we can afford (and who want to sign). Now would be the perfect time to share it.
-
"Not that kind of player" is the phrase usually rolled out. I think it's true most players don't intend to crock an opponent. Plenty, however, dive in with the intent of stopping them by any means necessary without thinking about consequence. That is still reckless.
-
I'm not sure if they have made good signings or made their bad pitch worse. From our perspective we just need to execute better. Simple. Not easy, but simple.
-
Wenger said it takes 6 months for a new player to get up to full speed in a team, and that's if they move from the same league. If they come from a lower division or a different country, it can take longer. What he never said was to judge a new signing after 2 league games.
-
Some teams use the "earn the right to play football" mantra. From what I've seen from Killie so far this season they have adopted the "earn the right to stop football" mantra. The best way to counter that is with an early goal - easier said than done, but we need to be on the front foot right from kickoff.
-
Watching the Aston Villa game and noticed that like a lot of clubs, including ourselves, they have artificial turf between the edge of the grass pitch and the walls at the front of the stands. The difference is they used a brown colour to make it look like an old-school track. It's a nice touch, as I always think wall to wall green looks a bit weird.
-
Miller isn't going to start every game. If you want our youngsters to develop then their game time needs to be managed, even if they are fully fit. Plus, of course, none of us know any details about who is injured and who isn't. SK knows Robinson's side is going to try and muscle us off the park, so we need a some size in the midfield, at least for the first 45 mins or so. I guess SK's unbeaten away record isn't sufficient to avoid criticism before this match even kicks off.

Or Dundee Utd to team back up with his old Livi buddy.

"I'm not technically savvy" says grandpa as he posts another covid conspiracy theory on facebook while complaining about immigrants in his whatsApp group.

If that's the case then we need to get people educated on the convenience of e-tickets instead of queuing up on matchday. Assuming you can buy them on matchday of course.
