Kilmarnock slip irks Shiels

Kilmarnock boss Kenny Shiels was frustrated his team dropped two points in a 3-3 draw with Dundee United at Tannadice.

The visitor twice led by two goals and had to settle for a share of the spoils after a late double from United skipper Jon Daly.

Shiels said: "The game was a great advert for the SPL and I'm just disappointed we couldn't hold out."

Meanwhile, Shiels hit back at United midfielder Willo Flood for claiming he called them a long-ball team the previous time the teams met earlier this season.

He added: "He's used it as a motivational tool to try and garner some motivation ahead of the game.

"But it's not what I said. I had nothing but praise for Dundee United after we beat them 3-1 and think they will be up there challenging for the title. I would like an apology."
