Kilmarnock have suffered one of the most embarrassing defeats in their history. They’ve been knocked out of the Europa League by Welsh side Connah’s Quay Nomads.
They went down 2-0 at Rugby Park in what was Angelo Alessio’s maiden home game as boss. It couldn’t have been any worse, suffering a humiliating defeat that ends their Euro dream.
Some fans have reacted to this shocking result.

Where do Kilmarnock go from here?
Alessio will come under serious scrutiny now when it comes to league competition.
After a couple of seasons of success with Steve Clarke, fans of the club are now expecting a top six finish. On the basis of their Nomads performance, that won’t be forthcoming.
The Ayrshire side have let themselves down massively. It’s a massive result for their opponents, but every player who played for Kilmarnock should hang their heads in shame after a truly woeful result.
This a damaging defeat for the club and it’s a result that will leave many worried about the upcoming season.
