Doubt there will be over nine thousand at the game mate. Well done with the printing race! All that practice with the half time draw fiddle came in handy!

And ive met an Ayr fan who also goes to Ibrox and a Killie fan who does the same. Both will go to Ayr/Killie at Peterhead/Ross County away. You mix with some right weirdos.

Also know loads that don't have season tickets come along to Somerset too. I'm sure killie is the same. I know a few who used to do that but 24 years of playing the same division (20 for Rangers!) has kinda stopped that for us. Used to have a fair number of local Celtic fans who'd watch us when Burns was boss and same with OldCo when Durrant/Fat Boy were at RP but I can honestly say I don't know anyone who does that now. Not saying there isn't the odd person who goes to games and supports the old filth but definitely not many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fans trying to force out old board etc. Ex old firm players weren't signed for any other reason than they were decent players (McCoist was a PR stunt and was rank rotten). Burns, Durrant, Stark, Marshall etc are some of the best players I've ever seen in a Killie shirt. Even likes of Tosh McKinley, Tommy Johnston, Craig Paterson etc were great players for us.

AyrTroopMajor Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 People will come crawling out the woodwork for this game. Most of them will be stay-away Ayr fans but it would be ridiculous to suggest that there won't be people standing at this match whose primary allegiance is with another team. I remember 2 seconds before Alex WIlliams equaliser last time at Somerset, looking to my left and seeing a guy check the time on his phone with a Rangers badge as his phone background. I think a point that was previously made was right, the fact that Killie have been in the same division as the OF has largely rooted out those that think they can follow both, but when we're shithousing our way through the lower leagues, this type of 'fan' will be more common as there is no real chance of the teams ever being in competition, unless your big club happens to hilariously go bust and get sent to the pits of Scottish football.

Hopefully this game and the new regime may entice some lapsed supporters back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we'll sell maybe 3,500-3,600 season tickets this season due to MJ being away/optimism. I'd love to see us back averaging 5-6.000 but these things take time.

blackislekillie Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 Oh ffs Seconded. Anyway, any of your youngsters ready to make the step up? Balfour looked handy against us in the U20 semi final. Is he a player you would like to see in the first team eventually? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our lowest average attendance was 1351 in 1984/85, which was when the club was basically heading down the pan under the pre-Moffat board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
