formerly known as ivan Posted December 9, 2023 Report Share Posted December 9, 2023 1 hour ago, GrahamC said: Cornick scored 13 at this level in 21/22 & cost £300k, less than a third of Watkins, who has never done that. Not sure in what way Watkins has the better record, whether Cornick ever turns out to be a success here. Watkins 3 goals in 27 games, Cornick 2 in 31… 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will raise you a gustav engvall? Kasey palmer, based on cost and return must be the worst though? has to be said though. Marley watkins is a joke, the fact hes at a respected spl club shows how bad that standard really is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northern Red Posted December 9, 2023 Report Share Posted December 9, 2023 I doubt you'd ever find Cornick hiding in the changing rooms to avoid having to train, which instantly marks him as better than Watkins. 6 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuber Posted December 9, 2023 Report Share Posted December 9, 2023 No other player reminds me of how badly we wasted money in that period. Dear lord, how we had him for three years on the books... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henry Posted December 9, 2023 Report Share Posted December 9, 2023 13 hours ago, GrahamC said: Probably only trumped by Hakeeb Adelakun who inexplicably arrived at the same time, cost £700k, & made just 5 starts, spending nearly all of his 3 (!) years with us out on loan. Now a squad player for Lincoln, which is basically the level that he was always at. Whoever was in charge of the identifying potential signings in that era should have been sacked years ago. I believe he got a promotion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely it's obstruction? Obstruction nowadays seems to a very different thing to what it was years ago. If it exists at all - not sure I can remember the last time I saw it penalised. Even this afternoon; there were two or three occasions when Conway was chasing through to try to press their keeper, and a defender just deliberately ran into his path and forced him wider - no attempt to play or even shield the ball. And it’s taken for granted. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As shit as Andy Davies is, I thought we were on the right side of his decisions yesterday, he must hate Huddersfield more than us! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, felt the same about Davies yesterday. One of the Linos seemed to suffering from the wet and wind to the extent that he was struggling to raise his arm! He infuriated the home fans with a couple of “offsides” he missed (hard to tell from our angle). He completely missed a ball going out of play and then blowing back in (our angle was perfect for that!). And second half his antagonism of the home fans reached the point where one guy raced to the front and was running up and down behind the lino in a fury - presumably letting him know what he thought! Hilarious! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sglosbcfc Posted December 10, 2023 Report Share Posted December 10, 2023 Yes, three points for Watkins v Aberdeen and then a cameo in the victory against Champions Celtic. Derek McInnes has now beaten Rangers and Celtic twice this season. That is Kilmarnock's first time beating Celtic twice in a season since they won the league in the early 1960s. Well done that man. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wasn't even watching when the ball went out of play for what should have been the throw in, just staring across the offside line. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How weird, I'm sure that's what I heard on 5 Live! Maybe the commentator got confused with Donnelly who'd come on for Watkins. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
