BBC's Tom English answers your Kilmarnock questions

BBC Scotland's chief sportswriter Tom English has been answering your questions on Kilmarnock.

Frank asked: Do you feel that Kilmarnock have been unlucky or harshly treated with players being sent off?

Tom answered: Well, there's been a lot of them, hasn't there? Off the top of my head, I'm trying to think of all the different incidents that led to the reds.

Maybe there was one or so that are harsh. I think from memory, most of them were justified or borderline. I think Derek McInnes has been very good on this and hasn't sought sympathy or excuses.

In a large part he's taken them all on the chin and has been critical of the decision-making that some of these players have made in those moments. Some of the reds were just ludicrous from an indiscipline point of view and self-defeating.

And you look at Killie, they've had Europe to deal with, that was difficult enough. But I think they're in a false position. They'll come through.

They're four points down on where they were last season. I don't have many fears for them.

They have a very, very good manager. And I think they will be banging on the door at the top six. But I say that about a few others as well. They can't all be up there.
