Such a sense of entitlement.
Killie have to give you an end. Their own fans would rather your fans weren’t there at all.
If you and your sisters can lock each other out of derbies, I hope other clubs do the same to you until you see sense (and maybe help control the bile).

This looks like an apology to people who don't like George Galloway.
It should be an apology for breaking the bloody rules.
Shameful.

@Morton_FC
faced the now-deceased Rangers at an overflowing Cappielow in the Scottish Cup.
This early goal from Bert Gourlay (Jimmy's nephew) at the WDE put us 1-0 up. In the end the visitors won 4-1.
