Kilmarnock Mclean factor

Even with 11 players on the park I don’t think we’d have won the match against Aberdeen, a draw would have been a fair result on the basis of a turgid first half. That, of course, is before introducing the Steven Mclean factor into the equation… we should have let Graeme Shinnie just referee the game! Sam Cosgrove and possibly Michael Devlin should have walked, game changers right there for starters. It was a clumsy challenge by Kirk Broadfoot but he’d be slaughtered if he didn’t go for it. A brave save by Joe Lewis but then he goes down holding his face despite not being touched. Rory Mckenzie retaliates after being elbowed and head-butted on the leg, yet only he is carded. Steve Clarke will be in trouble next but he speaks the truth.
