Killie Histories - Series 3 coming in September
The Killie Trust replied to The Killie Trust's topic in Killie Kickback
We are delighted to be working with the Kilmarnock Football Club Former Players Association to bring tales of classic matches direct to fans. The podcast is free to all...and not for profit. There are costs involved in production though - tools like Adobe Audition, Canva, Podbean and Wavve. If you are in a position to support the podcast, that would be fantastic! You can contribute here: https://ko-fi.com/killiehistories Next month, there will be a third series, and we have plans to develop and expand, if we can. -
Killie Histories - Series 3 coming in September
The Killie Trust replied to The Killie Trust's topic in Killie Kickback
We had a brief chat once we stopped recording and Tommy was keen to say again just how much he valued his time at the club. A really modest, nice guy. "The skill factor was possibly myself and Davie Sneddon." POSSIBLY! -
Killie Histories - Series 3 coming in September
The Killie Trust replied to The Killie Trust's topic in Killie Kickback
Tommy McLean is one of the all-time greats. Hear his memories of that special European comeback...from 4-0 down against Eintracht Frankfurt. The interview was only half an hour but he had a lot to say: Surprise European debut Taking penalties v Madrid Strengths of 1960s Killie Bond with Willie Waddell Move to Rangers Scotland Tommy doesn't do many interviews these days and explained that he spoke to me because he has such great affection for the club. He went out of his way to do the interview...and it is very much appreciated. A mode -
Kilmarnock FC Historian John Livingston puts it best: "Tommy McLean was the star of the greatest ever game played at Rugby Park." Read John's profile of an all-time great of Scottish football...before the interview is released later this morning.

Thanks Alan! Glad you enjoyed it. And it's a privilege to speak to these icons of our club. Tommy McLean next week... -
Only one player in Kilmarnock FC's 150-year history has been the top scorer for the league champions...Ronnie Hamilton. Still the club's youngest-ever player, Ronnie talks about the special night in 1964 when Killie were five goals ahead against Celtic. The 5-2 victory set a marker for the Ayrshire men, on route to the club's sole league title. As player, European goalscorer, title-winner, coach, board member, Chairman and supporter, Ronnie Hamilton's service to Kilmarnock can be counted in decades. The episode is now live on podbean, and will appear on Apple, Pocket Casts, Spre

The Killie Trust replied to The Killie Trust's topic in Killie Kickback
Thanks for the kind words! -
We are delighted to say that the guests for the second series of Killie Histories are Ronnie Hamilton and Tommy McLean! Two players who contributed so significantly to our most famous season, Ronnie's 15 goals played a crucial part, as did Tommy's final day assist for Davie Sneddon. As with Series 1, the players talk about one specific match before reflecting on their Kilmarnock career more generally. Tommy and Ronnie discuss some of the biggest matches in Kilmarnock's 150-year history and the affection they have for the Club is still strong. We will share details of the episode
