  1. You'll get in the Granary no issues. I'll be in Sweeneys and there will be zero issues with away fans getting in there.
  2. I wouldn't wear either but each tot their own.
  3. Brother in law is a Morton fan, so i'll cheering them on. Might get a day out at Hampden after all if they win!
  4. Not entirely sure, you''ll get plenty in towns and villages in likes of Dreghorn, Patna, Drongan, Kilwinning etc but it's never been a big thing in Kilmarnock. My dad grew up in Killie and said it was same back then.
  5. Kilmarnock Purple Heroes Hurlford 9am Kilmarnock 5pm Crookedholm 5.40pm Annual Boyne Celebrations 70 11 March 2022 8 April 2022 2 July 2022 Cancelled
  6. He's at least calling it out now, different world now than when he was on Scotsport.
  7. Will be an element of that but there's many factors. Billy Gilmour is a phenomenally gifted talent first and foremost, natural gift. He's from a footballing family and his dad was a decent player at junior level. He's got real hunger is seems too, to be the best he possibly can be. Hence why he made a decision at 16 that not many kids who support Rangers would do and that's leave Rangers when they are begging to keep you, in order to further his career. I'm sure plenty kids he came through the PS with will have regrets but his biggest asset is first his natural talent and secondly his work ethic. I know lots of folk who know him/knew him and any time he is back in Ardrossan/Saltcoats area he's down the local gym working away, helping out with prize givings etc at local boys clubs. Just seems a genuinely good wee guy.
  8. Still can't believe how bad we were on Saturday. Highlight of the day was a stop for a few pints in Brechin on the way home. Two years in a row we've shat the bed at the 1/4 final.
  9. Wait till they find out he was in Steve Clarke's class at school. Their heads will explode.
  10. David Watson is too. Just turned 19 the other week. Played over 2500 first team minutes this season and not even in the U21s. Yet boys who can't get a sniff of first team action are in.
  11. Killie finished 2nd 4 years in a row before winning it finally in 65.
  12. Yes, has been for a couple of months.
  13. I know, i was talking about the U21s. Both playing more regular top flight football than most the 21s and both got a higher ceiling than many of them.
  14. No Lennon Miller or David Watson in the U21s. Probably for the best given who the manager is and how hopeless he is but no idea how these two lads can't get in the 21s when you see the squad.
  15. How many French teams win cups? Since 2010 i can think of Celtic, Rangers, Aberdeen, St Johnstone x3, Hibs, Inverness, Hearts, Dundee Utd, Aberdeen, Killie, St Mirren, Ross County all winning domestic cups in Scotland.
  16. Looking forward to Saturday, Killie end just about sold out. Around 1,500 shifted so far.
  17. I think that model will be a disaster, certainly don't want to see Killie go down that route.
  18. They certainly are vermin. Thankfully, they seem to be a dying breed. Even the "Big" March every summer in Glasgow is nothing compared to what it once was.
  19. Dundee, Glasgow, North Lanarkshire & West Dumbartonshire the only areas that voted over 50% yes. Likes of Inverclyde, North Ayrshire, East Ayrshire etc were all well above the 47% (Inverclyde was 49.9%, North Ayrshire 48.9% & East Ayrshire 47.2%). If the Heartlands as you refer to them had even voted close to 50% we'd have got a yes vote. Instead, Aberdeen voted 41.4%, Aberdeen 39.6%, Edinburgh 38.9% etc. Certainly wasn't the "Weegies" who cost us independence.
  20. For the record, I stay in Kilmarnock and i don't think i can ever remember an orange walk here. Certainly isn't an orange lodge or the likes and if there was an orange walk, it must have been years, probably decades ago. Other parts of Ayrshire not so much but given Killie is the biggest town in Ayrshire, then i think it's fairly significant that there are none. Plenty areas of the central belt don't have them or entertain them. I'm sure the Granite City RSC or Peterhead True Blues that travel to every Rangers game would probably enjoy the orange walks. Thankfully in the minority. Just like the odd BNP/Britain first candidate that appears now and again.
  21. Having been to Peterhead once (sadly when Rangers were on tv in the early kick off) then i can sure you there is no envy!
  22. You are at it, absolutely no chance you are serious. If you are, you have my sympathies.
