Arbroath has been on a good few Killie fans bucket list for this season since our relegation was confirmed....
I hope the pubs have plenty of beer supplies in.
I was there today and saw more than a few weil kent faces normally seen around RP and at away games .....
The "Ayr Ayr f**k yer Ayr" chant from those in the Club Stand was a nice wee touch after the last race and drew a few astonished looks from the neutrals
Must admit, I'm off to the AGC myself for the 3 days, the only chance i'll get to see the highest rated flat horse in the world, Addeybb, being taken on by the likes of Jim Goldie's Euchen Glen on the Saturday.
I know the Killie Club buses are booked into a club near Gayfield mate... maybe Colin Boyd could give you the contact/details, if they have room for another bus load?
Would probably be more heading up if it weren't for a mixture of folks heading to the Ayr Gold Cup on Saturday & a right good few are booked up for the full weekend away to Arbroath from the following Friday.....
Talking of shame, i'm surprised no one picked up on the "dirty f****n b*****d" shout that rang out from someone in the crowd just after Afolabi got his jotters, can clearly be heard on the Raith TV commentary.
On a positive note, we did look far less predictable against Falkirk last weekend without Burke in the team.
I'm not saying for one minute we should start without him but instead of every attack coming down the right it was a lot more varied without him.
I also think Waters gives us more of an attacking threat going forward than Haunstrup does on the left.
Now Rugby Park can welcome back all fans wishing to attend on Saturday, there will be a minutes applause before the game to remember those fans lost during the pandemic and also to celebrate the NHS & all key workers.
As good as anything in the division with instant replays if and when required, commentary is now from ex BBC journo/commentator John Barnes and Gary Hay.
Home tickets are only on sale for the Frank Beattie & East Stand, leaving the Chadwick free, which has previously been used to house home supporters, for away fans.... I'll be disappointed if EAC don't allow you guys at RP on Saturday.
