That was it.......knew it was in the far east.....wasn't a great game, did we win 2-0 or something ?

Yup, correct. I was 12 when that semi took place and I remember my old man literally dragging me back to the car in fucking tears. I was inconsolable for a week. Didn't help that I went to a school full of H*ns, none of whom had ever seen the inside of a football ground. After disposing of Celtic and Hibs in that cup run (and I think Arbroath if my memory serves), we'd already eliminated two of the top three and were well on the way to disposing of the third until the masons stepped in. That really was a year we should have seen a cup win !

Thats the bastard !

I might be wrong but I think that Pettigrew lob was in the 2-2 cup quarter final, which was followed up with a replay draw at Easter Road and ended with a 2-1 win at a neutral venue (Ibrox). As you say, that cup run ended with one Masonic ref giving Rangers a penalty when Derek Johnstone stepped on the ball about 2 yards outside the box but managed to land on the penalty spot. The scum went on to win 3-2 and the ref was later found guilty of taking bribes over a European game.

First game was 72 for me i think, was the amber kit with claret trim and no band or diagonal with 'MFC' in script rather than a badge. First Season Ticket was first season of the 10 team premier league (75-76 maybe ??) but went to all home games the season before (excluding OF games which my old man wouldn't take me to until my first ST year).

Bet no one could guess how they got that second goal.......

Think that died of as a forum discussion when we had people suggesting we scored more goals with Stevie Woods in goal cause that had happened in Champ Manager.......

6KVV didn't make it off the bench for Killie today.

My stream died just before their second. Missed the lot ! 3 points never in doubt !!

We seem to have woken up now

Yup, you would think they would be facing some sort of sanction for the nick of their pitch and number of call offs. 20 point deduction sounds about right to me 🙂

Last thing we need is another break.

Taylor Swift was on the news last night because her net worth has reached $1BN. Could this announcement possibly be coincedence ? On a more serious note (just in case someone thinks the above was serious), I see the amateur accountants and corporate lawyers are out spouting shite again. It's amazing that a few people on here with such a multitude of business and football knowledge haven't bought the club already.

At least theirs has an element of conspiracy theory to it. The best our forum 'experts' could come up with was that we couldn't afford to put the undersoil heating on.

This needs chnged round quickly. Too many players not at the races.

Even more incompetent and oot his depth than Kettlewell.... 😄

And getting pumped by Ross Co in the play off

Handball ! Disallow the next goal !

Tickets bought and the trip 'doon the watter' planned for this one...........

Probably next time we lose an early goal against a bottom six side. He'll be an amateur thats oot his depth that should have binned Kettlewell last October.

Spot on mate. A lot of teams have 'shown ambition' and 'speculated'. e.g. Gretna, Livingston, Airdrie, Dundee, Hearts (they might be 3rd now but there's an administration from the 'speculation' years to consider), us under Boyle and Nevin. There must be more that I'l missing, but I don't recall a recent story of a team in Scotland ploughing loads of money into a team, being mega succesful and becoming financially viable from their investment. There is no money to be made in Scottish football for anyone outside the uglies (and look at the financial state one of them is in). Even in the EPL, the sucessful teams are making massive losses and have 'donors' throwing hundreds of millions in which they'll never see again. The path we're on is the only viable one and to my mind, thats why any 'investment' needs a hell of a lot of scrutiny before moving forward.

Good man 🙂 I'm 100% with you on that 🙂 I'm sure it was mentioned that we 'lacked the ambition' to go for him.

Other people suggested it earlier in this thread, so you never know. Along with others such as Duncan Ferguson (and the usual 'he'd sort them oot' crap you get about people like him and Lennon)

You putting that forward as a serious managerial suggestion ????
