SG: I wasn't aware of how Steve was feeling after the match when we met up for a beer. The club has issued a statement and we don't support any kind of unacceptable behaviour from the terraces.

SG: There was a great reaction last night and the fans got a good show, they supported us from the start.

 

[TN8]

I don't understand our press conference timings.

SG: I think you have to analyse the game properly last night, the scoreline reflects that Kilmarnock lost a man. We are not naive enough to sit here and think everything went perfectly last night.

SG: I was delighted with Morelos' performance but I was delighted all over the pitch. It was the perfect night for me.

SG: I think Jermain is a perfect role model for Alfredo, he can use this to his benefit and keep growing. He can go and achieve anything he wants to.

SG: It would be very expensive to buy a player of Alfredo's quality, that is why we laughed at a couple of rumoured bids for him.

SG: It doesn't matter who is selected to play, our full squad have to have the same mentality going into every game. We want all of our best players fit and available.

Ah so after a few drinks he had something to say

SG: Hamilton are playing more of a back four, they previously played with a back five but from our point of view the focus has to be on us to have the same hunger to go and get three points.

JD: Morelos has huge potential. He is a goalscorer and someone who wants to score. I believe that appetite is something you are born with, not coached.

JD: I remember when I was young at West Ham I had the likes of Ian Wright to help me progress, I hope at this stage in my career I can now help Alfredo. I'll need a few Spanish lessons but we have a good understanding.

JD: When your missing key players at any football club you're going to feel it. Especially your top scorer.

JD: The artificial surface is the same for both teams, the home team might be used to it but at the same time it is a pitch and two goals. I look forward to it.

JD: As players, you want to win every game you play in front of your home fans, it takes a good few days to get over a bad result. We wanted to put on a show and thankfully we made it easy with how we performed.

SG: No fresh injury news. McGregor is back and Morelos has his final game of suspension. It's pleasing to see Murphy back kicking balls but it will be the final few games of the season before he can potentially return.

Glad he didn't dwell on the Clarke shite.

Well played SG.

 

[Gogso]

Have I slept right through to Friday and missed Thursday?

Take tomorrow off.

Defoe seems to totally accept he isn't the main man for us up front.

Defoe seems to totally accept he isn't the main man for us up front.

He could be in other ways though.
