		Boyd, Kris - Kris was Transferred to: Glasgow Rangers in Jan of 2006 for an estimated £400K. Kris left the club as Killie's all time SPL goalscorer with 64 finishes.

		Burke, Alex - Alex Burke will be remembered by Kilmarnock fans for adding left-wing swagger to the team that lifted the Scottish Cup in 1997, and who subsequently enjoyed European forays to the likes of Nice and Kaiserslautern. He was the teenage Scot who seemed to embody everything that had deserted the indigenous player...
		Burns, Tommy - Tommy Burns was appointed manager in April 1992 but he was originally signed by Jim Fleeting who pulled a masterstroke by signing him while Killie were still in the Second Division. Tommy proved to be a brilliant servant for the club, playing a major role in our revival. He continued to play and brought former...
		Canero, Peter - Pedro was only keen to move on with a transfer that would help Killie out (i.e. no pre-contract situations with other club's (Celtic was reported to be a non-starter) where Peter would leave Rugby Park for nothing!)  Peter has since been selected to the full Scotland side since his Jan 2004 move to  Leicester City...
		Clark, Jim - Coming soon!
		Clarke, Paul - "In 1986, approaching my 30th birthday, I realised that life at Rugby Park had become frustrating for me personally, as the club was really struggling and showing no apparent signs of improving.

		Cook, Jim - Part of the Willie Fernie promotion winning team in 73-74, that scored 96 league goals, that Jim must have supplied 25 of the serves into the box that Killie's Fleming or Morrison converted. From 68-71 played on the left wing opposite Tommy McLean, giving Killie one of the most attractive attacking formations in Scotland.
		Dargo, Craig - Brought in by Bobby Williamson during the close season of 2000 but due to his age we had to fork out a reputed £100,000 in compensation because he was under 23.

		Dindeleux, Freddie - Freddie played over 200 games for Killie, and was the longest playing Bosman transfer playing Scotland..."It was a gamble for me coming here, especially with a wife and child, but it was a gamble for Kilmarnock to sign a French centre-half. Thankfully, it went well. I was enjoying myself and the people at Kilmarnock  It just became my life".
		Durrant, Iain - To this day you will find many an argument over who Killie's "best player" was in the 90's! The majority of the fans are divided over Tommy Burns or Ian Durrant.

		Eremenko, Alexi - Signed on a season-long loan from Ukraine club Metalist Kharkiv, by boss Mixu. The 27-year-old Finnish international was an attacking midfielder. Helped the club to a 5th place SPL finish in his only season of 2010-11.  Made shortlist of 4, for SPL player of the Year.

		MacDonald, Malky - When Raymond Montgomerie hoisted the Scottish Cup aloft at a sun drenched, emotion soaked Ibrox on 24th May 1997, there was one man watching from the stands who perhaps felt that after 40 years justice had been done. Malcolm MacDonald...Interviewed by Donny Muir for the KTS magazine...
		Mackinnon, David - Davie Mackinnon was one of these players you hated when he was on the opposing side, only because you wanted him playing for your team.

		Maxwell, George - George made over 350 appearances for Killie between1969 & 1981. Known also for rocket right foot shots that were the hardest in Scotland at the time!. As a part time player George was also a PE teacher, and had Gordon "Casper" Smith as both a pupil and a team-mate.
		McCluskey, George - 'Toby' as George was nicknamed, was one of the most skilful players in Scotland over the last few decades.

		McCulloch, Alan - Alan McCulloch made his debut for Killie against the mighty Brechin in December '63 and went on to play an amazing 489 times for the club. It has been argued that if he had played for a 'bigger' club then no doubt he would have added to his one under 21 cap... Interviewed by Donny Muir for the KTS magazine...
		McCulloch, Iain - Iain was a never say die fan-fav, not un-like Gary Holt! Sold to Notts Co in Mar 1978 for £80,000. Played through 1986 before retiring through injury. Nicknamed "cowboy" for his reckless all out style of play.
		McCutcheon, Gary - With a total of six starts and sixteen appearances as a substitute (scoring two goals in the process) since he signed in 1995. Gary never got a chance of a sustained run in the first team at Rugby Park. He's been off on loan on numerous occasions... Read his player profile...

		McLaughlan, Sandy - To follow
		McLaren, Andrew - Andy was signed by former manager Bobby Williamson in June of 2000 after being out of football for a period due to drink and drug related problems.

		McLean, Stuart - Coming soon!
		McLean, Tommy - Tommy McLean was one of my boyhood idols, and it broke my heart when he was sold off to Rangers. Tommy will always be remembered as one Killie's 1964-65 Championship Winning Team.

		Middlemas, James - Joined Killie at the ripe old age of 29, after appearing for Petershill Juniors in the 1949 junior cup final. Helped Killie reach the 1953 League Cup Final as a Division "B" team. Went on to captain Killie during their 1953-54 promotion winning season.
		Millar, Blair - "The current set up is a far cry from the days when I was playing, it's simply amazing how the club has progressed in the last few years.

Interviewed by Donny Muir for the KTS magazine...
		Mitchell, Alistair - Ally Mitchell arrived in 1991 from East Fife for the princely sum of £100,000 which, ten years and over 400 appearances later seems to be a bit of a bargain! Always versatile, Ally played in nearly every position at some stage in his Killie career. A genuine Killie legend and the last of the 1997 Scottish Cup winners. "Bully" was released on Jan 17th 2003.
		Montgomerie, Raymond - Monty was part of the team who found glory and brought Kilmarnock back into the top flight in the early nineties.

		Nish, Colin - Sold to Hibs on Jan 30th 2008, after rejecting the club's best offer, having signed a pre-contract for season 2008-09 with the capital club. The six foot +, lanky forward was certainly not a fans fav initially, but won many of the fans over, with his goals, and overall effort to the cause. Scored from the spot in his last match for Killie Vs Airdrie Utd, in the cup.
		Provan, Davie - In season 1977-78 As a first division Killie claimed the premier league scalp of holders Celtic, in the Scottish Cup. It was Killie's wee winger Davie Provan gave the Celtic backline a roasting, and it was no surprise that Celtic bought Provan the following season, for a then record of £120,000 pounds between Scottish clubs.This is the first time a club from a lower division had knocked out the cup holders !!
		Queen, Gerry - Killie bought Gerry in 1965 from St Mirren for £4,000 plus Ronnie Hamilton. 124 outings and 41 goals later Gerry departed Killie to head on down south to join Crystal Palace for a fee of £35,000, in June of 1969. Gerry did play (and scored Killie's only goal) in the club's 1969 Centenary match Vs Eintracht.
		Quitongo, Jose - Jim Jefferies once had him on his books while at Hearts, and with the new transfer window system coming in during 2002-03 season , JJ offered him a six month contract as cover. Sadly Jose never really broke through, despite all his trickery & skill!

		Skilling, Mark - Coming Soon!
		Skora, Eric - Eric was on loan from Preston NE from Jan -May 2004. When he left he said...."I'm full of confidence and I'll go back a better player, Maybe not in skill but in confidence.

		Smith, Gordon - Played in the 73/74 & 75/76 promotion winning sides, before being sold to Rangers  in 1978. Should have clinched the FA Cup for Brighton in 1983  (Vs Man U) at Wembley. In the immortal words of BBC commentator David Coleman.... "and Smith must score!". Today, Gordon is an active player agent, and BBC football pundit. Doesn't seem to fondly look back on his Rugby Park playing days.
		Sneddon, Davie - Another Killie icon! Davie scored one of the goals that helped bring the 1964-65 title to Kilmarnock. Davie was the first team trainer from 1972-77, and manager from 1977-81.
