So unfortunately I didn't get to watch the rest of the game today as I had to go to work (game started at 7am here in Australia).

Can anyone give me some incite into kev's return? How did he look? Did the team look better when he came on?

I'm just trying to find some positives from our 2nd 0-0 draw in a row.
 
Along with the fact that we didn't lose, his return was the one bright spark of the night. We did look better with him on the pitch. But to be fair, apart from Howard, Vic was our best player, then Kev. Good to see a couple of those little swervy runs of his with the ball again.
 
He looked ok mate. The whole team was awful barring big Vic and Kev. Now he lacked match sharpness obviously but the signs are positive.
 
I just hope he isn't rushed back. The fact is with this injury if we just push him a little more each week it would be better for him than if we throw him straight back in.
 

He had a decent chance when his 1st touch took him past the last defender only to shoot wide, not the easiest of angles and on his left foot
 
Give him 20 minutes v Bolton, then get his hamstring rested and then give him half a game v West Brom.

Another half game in the reserves then he should be good to start again.

Totally agree with the Gibson comment.

Id like to see Kev get 60 minutes on Saturday before being replaced by Naismith to really run the legs off em...

It's a simple game in many ways, if no one supports the player in possession, no one looks for the simple pass inside, then you end up pumping it long.
 
Started rusty as expected, ran the ball straight out of play for no reason at one point, got going a after a little bit though, made a half decent chance.
Not a great performance by his standards but still stood out amidst the mediocrity of most of the rest of our outfield players.
 
Didn't look match fit, but expect him to come good just like he was. Just needs a couple of games under his belt. Thank god he's back.
