topcat(The most tip top) Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 Are you even a serious professional football club if you haven't at least dipped your toe into the overnight accommodation and hospitality market The Park Hotel is has 50 beds whilst the Tynecastle Hotel is only has 25 beds which gives Killie a definite advantage The Park is the only four star hotel in Kilmarnock making it a domestic giant like Bayern Munich. Tynecastle has four stars but that's mid table respectability in the more competitive capital And the Skyline restaurant has 5 Stars on trip advisor one more than "Blues" so hope is not lost for the capital Weighing everything up I'm predicting a draw 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingjoey Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 Aberdeen have room for around 60 homeless people outside the RDS. Zero comfort, zero shelter, but the space is there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deadasdillinger Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 We really are the dugs baws, us and Hearts, eh? I mean, as the Old Firm obviously don't count, it's been left to Killie and the Jambos to be the only good teams in the league, battering teams aside week in week out. No other sides anywhere near us as we've both wrapped up Europe, we could come out and play this game in our slippers, knock it about for an agreeable 0-0, and those diddies St Mirren and Dundee still couldn't dream of catching us. Hopefully these two great sides elect to play an exciting exhibition match and give us a good 5-5 instead. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VincentGuerin Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 I've got some reservations about this one. Hearts will come into this game with a bit of baggage and in need of a lift after the semi-final defeat and they'll know that a victory will see Kilmarnock check out of the race for third. But I can see us being good guests here and not taking anything home with us. That said, the tough game Killie gave us a few weeks ago should serve as a wake-up call, and Hearts might just floor us all by picking up a point. I hope nobody gets booked. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's also owned by the same person who owns the football club, so saying it has nothing to do with Killie would be daft. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both club and hotel are run as seperate entities. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy_K_97 Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 Having watched Hearts yesterday, I know they can definitely play better than they did - it certainly was an off-day, and I can only hope that the JTs have another day like that on Saturday. The two games at Tynecastle have been close affairs and we arguably could have won both games on another day, but the LC QF at RP saw us switch off at the worst possible time, and the match in December was a poor one where we once again shot ourselves in the foot. On our day, we can certainly match Hearts - but will we finally get a win against them this season? I'm quietly confident that we'll take something from this one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You said nothing to do with the club though, which wasn't true. They are run as separate entities but both reliant on each other, as both have the same owners. Absolutely every club event is there, players stay there when newly signed etc. To say it's nothing to do with the club is just wrong. The hotel isn't a football club liability any longer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crùbag Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 Am loving the hotel-wars spat amongst Killie fans. I can only hope that the Ugly Sisters can progress to such disagreements. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
