Heading down to Kilmarnock today and it’s the first time since Kettlewell’s tenure that I’m asking myself “why am I going”

im normally a glass half full with us but there’s just something up this season, I have a horrible feeling he’ll start Vogt and have sparrow again at right back. I’m hoping I’m wrong. We need a win and I don’t see it being today.

I was just about to ask how are people feeling about today - you often have a good sense about match day @mio.

my sense is today is a must perform and must take something from the game - but no clue if we will see a reaction 

[Wellsince1976]

My first away game in years(although to all intents a local game for me). The team need the fans to get right behind them from the off. A performance is the most important thing for me, but also his team selection will show what he has learned if anything from the last 4 losses. I'm going for a 3-2 win for the good guys.

Vogt drops to the bech

Maswanhise & Said start

Sparrow at right back and SOD at centre back again

Very happy to see Koutroumbis on the bench - wonder if he’ll be on for last 20 mins . 
 

i wouldn’t be against putting McGhee into midfield to add some strength 

fingers crossed for something better today 

[stv]

SOD had to start today . Hopefully he can be the calm and experianced one in the team . To pull things together.  Also to ensure the ball gets out to Longelo more often .

[AllyMax]

I'd have had SOD at RB and either G-R or K-L in beside Moorman, possibly Levitt instead of Hodge.

I wonder if our commentator today will have actually read the team sheet and get Palmer-Holden's name right....

My preferred choice too. K-L  in central defence.

[grizzlyg]

Happy with line up apart from Sparrow at right back. I would have played SOD there and either JGR or JKL at centre half.

Yep! I’d also like to see JKL starting alongside Moorman. Looks like an attacking line up. Here’s hoping we can create and convert chances.

[MJC]

Great start 🤦‍♂️

[ppower]

Taxi for Johanssen.

[Yoshi-1991]

Get this team so far to fuck

[MJC]

Alfred Hammell

[Kmcalpin]

Another blunder.

[MFC-craig]

I’m maybe being a little bit soft here but we are fucking shite. 

[wellsince75]

Paulsons awful passing - he put Moorman in trouble there as well . 
 

a poor replacement for Ward

Not much he can do when players are making howlers like that

He signed him, he’s coaching him/the team.

That’s now two goals Paulsen has sold by trying to play football in his own box. We don’t have the defenders with the qualities on the ball to make that work so he needs to stop doing it.

And yes, before anyone says it, I remember well that Ward did the same last year at Celtic Park and cost us a goal and a point but he/we learned from it. It helped that we also had something resembling a football team in front of him.

[wellfan]

The only thing that’s changed since this team was putting in good performances in Europe and at the start of the season is that Alfred has had more time to work with them and turn them to shite.

[ppower]

Time after time one long ball takes out the whole defence. WTF are we doing in training. Its the same old rubbish.

[Orinoco]

Mistakes happen. The problem is our opponents are being clinical in punishing us. 

Ive said it before, we ask the players to be brave on the ball. If fans start to get on their backs the players will hide. We need to trust the process and SUPPORT the team. To many showing no patience. Ripping up everything aint an option.
