KILLY AWAY TOMORROW

Both offside goals should have stood I'd say.  Ours came first though.  Killie maybe shadedthe 1st half, but we bossed the 2nd - until the ;last 10 mins or so.  So 1-1 maybe fair.  Pens is a lottery, glad we got it.

I'm very pleased by the performance - things are looking good.  Look at the guys we have on the bench.

Radio Pundit conclusion: “Killie better side in first half, Thistle better in second . Thistle win the shoot-out to get the extra point. Well done lads. We can win this group!

He maybe didn't watch the first half and was just guessing.

Thistle were the better team for 85 minutes and deservedly won on pens.

Even a loss wouldn't have taken away from the performance, which was very good all round. I watched on Premier Sports btw.

A lot to be happy about after tonight.

Well done the whole team.

Thought we dominated until the subs came on. Weston does look a bit lightweight and looked a wee bit lost on the right wing.  

Thought Milne, Turner and Muirhead were very good and the rest good. Smith started to come onto a game early second half and should probably have scored twice.

Overall that was a very good advert for buying a season ticket at Firhill. I think we will be a very exciting team to watch this season and a big improvement on last year.

Fairly certain Lawless handled the ball before scoring but that's neither here nor there. Difficult to believe he'd be near offside. As others have said Milne and Muirhead were outstanding. Turner improved as the match wore on and finished the game as the best midfielder on the park.

Haven't watched the highlights yet but Aero's goal reminded me of Alec McLeish's goal v Rangers in yon early 80s cup final.

Well pleased with that!!

First 15 we were tentative, not helped by the loss of the goal and general panic on cross balls into our area during that period of the game.

Thought we were very good thereafter apart from most of the last ten when we were under the cosh a bit. Even so, we failed to take either of two great chances before then to have made that immaterial.

Both disallowed goals were perfectly valid in my opinion.

Weston made a poor choice on the 3v3 late on - he'll learn from that.

The penalties were a hoot because Killie didn't expect to be in that position.

Still haven't a clue what Cameron Smith brings to the team, though.

Just in from Rugby Park   got to agree that the ball came off Lawless 's  arm...

Am I missing something.

BBC showing Group B table as  Killie top as follows:

Killmzrnock played 2 points 4

Partick Thistle played 2 points 4

I thought we got an extra point for winning the penalty shoot out so should we not be sitting on 5 points and top of the group?

Good overall performance.  Feeling a bit more positive about the season ahead after that.  Turner looks a different player through the middle.  Muirhead and Milne both top class, even Smith was half decent. Only downside was running out of steam in the last 15 mins.  Great fun winning the pens though.

Certainly a result that will bring optimism to even some cynics.  
A treat for those US fans who could watch it live here.

Apart from a last fifteen minutes where we were left chasing (as noted above) I was really impressed all round.  Surely a great opportunity to get to the last 16

Ach where did you catch it live?  Last live Thistle match I caught that wasn’t through Jagzone was via FanDuel Sportsbook.

It’s only taken the manager most of a season to realise Turner through the middle is better. Mostly good at corners and free kicks too.

I felt our bench was a bit inexperienced yesterday, we could do with a couple of signings that were not SEVCO loanees.
