Everyone associated with Killie will have their favourite memories from
season 2005/2006. Our final placing of fifth was a fine achievement and
we were well entertained throughout with a barrow load of goals. The
emergence of Stephen ‘Kid Goals’ Naismith has given everyone a boost and
the form of guys like Combe, Fowler and Johnston has been inspiring and
a joy to watch.
Off the
field is still a cause for concern but the Fifty for the Future campaign
has been a tremendous success. Our involvement with FFTF has opened our
eyes and we take great encouragement from the support and goodwill given
to us by the fans and local business community.
The
curtain was drawn on the FFTF season with an end of season event in the
Park Hotel prior to the demolition of Hibs. All contributors were
invited and we were delighted to see the large numbers in attendance.
Chairman Michael Johnston and Youth guru Alan Robertson thanked everyone
for their efforts and everyone had the chance to enjoy a free buffet as
well as get a couple of complimentary tickets for the match.
The
FFTF Roll of Honour board now hangs proudly in the hotel and it was
admired by everyone who wanted to see their name on the list. The
foundations are now firmly in place and we will be continuing with the
campaign for many years to come. The Killie Trust has played a huge part
in supporting the full campaign and you can expect a lot more from the
Trust in the months ahead. If you have not already done please sign-up
