Kilmarnock Let’s fill Rugby Park

-

Eamonn Brophy pounced early at Tynecastle to the delight of a large travelling contingent. The match was a bit huff and puff and we could have lost it in the end but for some heroics and a penalty save by Jamie Macdonald.

Come Saturday, yet another massive regiment of Steve Clarke’s blue and white army traversed the frozen northern wastelands seeking Scottish Cup glory. We suffered an early setback against the Dons but Jordan Jones was sent crashing in the box in the second half and Kris Boyd rattled in his 124th Killie goal from the spot. There is a lot of talk about getting bums on seats for the replay, but first let’s fill Rugby Park on Saturday. Our away support is phenomenal, but the team deserve the same at home.
