Bonus points for any memories of them playing.

I remember being at Ibrox when Killie won 3-0 and one of these guys scored and the best thing about it was he had forgotten his boots and was playing in his trainers!

One of my earliest memories of watching Killie was going to the old Rugby Park and this guy was in the team.

Anyone remember him and hazard a guess at the year from the strip?

A wee Sunday thinker for you.

We have been blessed with some cracking managers over the years and some of them have went on to bigger and better things.

There are 6 nations that have been managed by former Killie bosses. How many can you name without googling?

Only full men's International teams count.

Line Up v St. Mirren

Looks like McCann has went with a fairly attacking line-up!

St. Mirren have been struggling for goals all season. They've only scored 27 in 30 games.

Got to feel that if we can get ourselves ahead early we can go on and get a decent result here!

MON THE KILLIE!

Does anyone know why we sing Paper Roses?

For all my years we have sang Paper Roses and Ive never really understood why or where that association came from.

Its 2nd nature to sing it before or after every big game but ive never really known how that came to be. We even got Last Year's Men to release a cover of it in '97!

Can anyone help me out and tell me how we ended up with Paper Roses as our anthem?

Big game tomorrow!

Possibly the biggest game of the season tomorrow! Win this one and we should be safe!

How's everyone feeling and whats the predictions?

What do you think of McCann so far?

Now that we are all but safe after two impressive 3-0 wins back to back in thought it would be a good time to ask what everyone thinks of McCann and Dodds at the helm?

I must admit when they were first appointed back in January I was a little underwhelmed and wasnt sure whether this would just be another rinse and repeat job.

I genuinely think I might have been wrong. It took us a wee while to get going but even when we were getting beat under the new manager I think you could see improvements in the performances.

Defensively we are looking more sound each week and similarly I think we look a real threat on the counter and in transition going forward.

It's a shame Mikey Moore will be making his way back down to Spurs otherwise we might have been in with a shout of getting Curtis for season loan next year.

Im presuming McCann will have buttons to work with in terms of transfer fees but he isnwell connected within the game so hopefully can find us a couple of decent frees.

Whats everyone else's opinion so far?

Sold out away end!

Great to see we have a big travelling support heading up to Paisley today!

Fingers crossed we get the result we need.

I like the way McCann was talking before the match. Hopefully we go up there and really take the game to St.Mirren because they will be feeling the pressure more than us.

Our away form hasnt been the best (understatement) but I feel like we will have enough to see this through.

Im going 3-1 Killie!

When Puskàs' Real Madrid came to Rugby Park ...and failed!

Unfortunately Im not old enough to have seen us play in that era but what a team that must have been to win the league.

Not only did we win the league but we held Real Madrid, who would go on to win the European Cup to a 2-2 draw at Rugby Park.

In the 2nd leg we even went ahead at the Bernabèu and missed a penalty! Wow

Staying Up

What a game last night, the team were emense and I have to admit I wasn't happy when McCann was appointed but he proved me wrong and with that Win last night he has kept us up.

With the new grass pitch next season and our new training facility coming over the next few months Billy Bowie has again shown he is the correct man to lead the club.
