No complaints from Killie

Kilmarnock boss Jim Jefferies admitted that his side did not deserve anything from their 1-0 defeat at Dundee United.
Jefferies felt Killie had defended well, but paid the price for several players being below-par.
He said: "The back four and James Fowler were outstanding and Colin Nish tried hard and I'm not going to be too hard on Rhian Dodds on his first start of the season.
"But, in the SPL - when you have three or four players who did not perform - you run the risk of losing.
"They had ten outfield players battling for it and we probably had six. They won more important balls than we did and we only showed any urgency when we went 1-0 down."
Meanwhile, Killie's highly-rated young striker Steven Naismith is being tracked by Nottingham Forest, who hope to be back in the Championship next season.
