    Definite penalty for me. Hit his arm and it was goal bound.

    Deserved the booking too, because he knew what he was doing.

    Even more raging with this board after today!!!! Had Tounekti been signed prior to the CL play-off we’d be through. That’s my honest opinion, he’d have taken defenders in and created things. I am absolutely raging with those incompetent self centred clowns.

    There was an "inside lennoxtown" video at the start of the week, showing the training of the squad.
    The last minute of the video showed fast passing, one touch stuff, getting out of tight situations and advancing the ball well.
    It was good to see.


    Yet we didn't see anything like that today.
    Much more of the same sideways and backwards passing overall, with tounekti giving us an out ball, but it wasn't fast zippy play to him, it was almost as if at times it just happened to be his turn to have the ball after passing it 13 times elsewhere. Rather than by design of high tempo passing to get the ball to him.

    Glad for the win, saw the plus side in a few players, but for the most part it's just a slow continuation of the first few games so far.

    I thjnk it'll get better over time. It's been a bizarre start to the season for a few reasons. I definitely think the transfer stuff has impacted the squad overall tbh.

    Confident Rodgers will get us through it.

    As we've seen with the Huns as well it's very different doing something in training and having it transfer directly onto the pitch. Every week anyway.

    But I do agree it hasn't been consistent enough for a while. Its weird.

    I think we looked much better tbh. Could have won that by 4

    This narrative that killie were hard done by and robbed is a joke tbh. They tried to play for 10 minutes and got what they deserved.

    I almost think the way we won that game with the last kick of the ball was arguably more beneficial than running over the top of them and coasting to a 2/3-0 win. Could feel the togetherness between fans, manager and players at the end there and nothing like a last second win to make everyone feel a little bit better.

    Tounekti was outstanding I thought, if he can play on the right we’ve won a watch with him.

    Did the delayed entry work like it was hoped?

    Didn't get to see the match but seen highlights on BBC sportscene, Celtic was far better team. Had a few opportunities to make it 2-0 but Killie made a few blocks. Killie only started playing after got the goal.

    Any notion that they deserved anything from the game based on a 10 min spell is bollocks.

    Get it right up Kettlewell too.

    Didn't look like it, lots of Celtic fans in the stadium at start, but the commentator mentioned it and the camera went on the Celtic fans coming into the ground on the 12 minutes mark, it could have been much stronger protest.

    I think fans may have been concerned about the effects on the team, i was concerned about that

    The team this season and under Rodgers for a while seems like an over coached team

    Players aren't allowed to play their own game

    Team and players seem restricted

    It was refreshing to see touneki dribbling and running at players

    If we can play a bit more off the cuff and trust players to play their game it would be a much better watch in general, the pass it around up and down and side to side is * shocking to watch

    Properly can’t stand that hun *. Forever complaining that they’ve been done by refs/bad luck and never anything to do with the fact he’s extremely limited as a manager and his teams are generally terrible.

    Even worse for sticking ten men behind the ball now than they were under McInnes. That giant upfront carried them well though tbf to him.

    I get the feeling that, as the days go bye, the desire of some fans re the protest will diminish. Today's win coupled with the huns defeat will have lifted the moods and the fact that we don't have a home game for a couple of weeks means the majority of fans won't have the opportunity to show their anger. It was also very noticeable that todays planned protest wasn't unanimous with a good number of fans present fir the k.o. Hopefully I'm wrong but it clearly shows that we need a group of fans to take the lead in organising future protests and to try to ensure the commitment of all the fans in our fight against the board.

    Their big giants caused us a few problems and it clearly shows that we should have signed a big imposing CH, but we all know that didn't happen. Anyway, the 3pts was the main thing as you say

    That's what Ange brought. Encouraged players to be brave and make mistakes. Need that for that type of drill to make sense really.

    Rodgers is the opposite. Slow and steady. It's not a great spectacle.

    To be fair it was hardly the right pitch to be playing quick flowing football.

    Love a scrappy win at times more than anything.

    We score so many late winners domestically that you almost expect it to happen.

    Good to know there will have been plenty of them watching in the 94th minute thinking we were dropping two points and there would have been a title race on.

    Get it right up them. I’ve never liked Hearts.

    It's the opposite. Rodgers relies on moments of magic in the forward areas. Ange had the overloads and system drilled into the players. It was a machine, players could drop out and it wouldn't affect things too much. In Rodgers system if you lose a key forward player it can be a slog.
