Ludo*1 Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 What a player O'Hara is by the way. Sums Lee Clark up getting rid of genuine talent. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dindeleux Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 What a player O'Hara is by the way. Sums Lee Clark up getting rid of genuine talent. Most of our fans liked O'Hara and I hope he has a good career but you and your fellow Dee appear to have made the common mistake of shooting your load too soon. It'll be interesting to see if opinions change during the season.What you have though is a very young player with plenty of experience and Hartley may make him even better especially if he avoids playing him in either full back role. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been a destroyer through the whole of pre season and carried that on yesterday.He's raw but his energy and drive forward are exactly what we need. As you say he's young so he will make mistakes and possibly tail off but the potential is pretty tremendous.Why was he never played in midfield for Killie? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweet Pete Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 He did the odd time. Also centre half and both full back positions. Maybe lack of consistent midfield games is partially to blame. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DundeeDerryBoy Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 Did Ohara ever get a run of games as an attacking midfielder? Hartley signed him and said no one, including the player, could understand why he'd been played in defence. We've been playing him in front of the two holding midfielders, all through pre season and again on Saturday he's been a machine. Picks the ball up deep, runs past players like they're not there and involved in two of our three goals on Saturday. Early days but so far he's bossing games and dictating the tempo every time he plays. Looks to be a top midfielder. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well done Paul Hartley for seeing in O'hara that four Killie managers didn't. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nadroj Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 Magennis away to Charlton for 275k plus add ons apparently. I love Josh but that is a great deal as he only has a year left on his contract. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kennysmassiveego Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 Good luck Josh , There will be some fans of his previous clubs wondering how the f**k could he improve under the tutelage of AJ and GL and not their manager They need to take a good look at emselves IYAM 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mathematics Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 (edited) He improved by having AJ and GL retrogress all the other players around him. Josh is an absolute diddy and to get anything for him, at this stage in his contract, is criminal.

Without him, we'd have been relegated last year - it's as simple as that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunning1874 Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 Obviously he can be effective purely through being a battering ram and his goals were vital for you last season, but that's a ridiculous amount of money for a player as limited as Magennis. You could fairly point out that relegation would cost you a lot more than £275K, but that money may give you some scope to bring in some more players, who maybe won't be utter shite like the vast majority of your summer signings. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killiesquirrel Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 We won't sign anyone though. It'll go towards paying the debt. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Estragon Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 Echo above sentiments, good luck to big Josh. If he can continue to improve as he did last season he'll do well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
