My uncle said to me in the car on the way up "look out for Davie Provan on the wing, he's Killie's best player." Two minutes after kick off John Greig launched him three feet in the air and that was his game over, and Killie's ? I was living in Strathclyde University's Reith Hall behind the Botanic Gardens then and a group of Killie fans from there made the trip across the Clyde to Govan that day. Yip, that's exactly how I remember it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find him such a negative co commentator especially where Scotland are concerned. Ally McCoist was a breath of fresh air with Ian Crocker during the recent games on Sky.

skygod Posted September 19, 2021 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2021 (edited) Provan and Walker are equally bad. I don’t know how they keep getting the gig. Edited September 19, 2021 by skygod 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mclean07 Posted September 20, 2021 Report Share Posted September 20, 2021 He is a miserable git. I played old men’s football on Wednesday against Gordon Smith. And he did score against me! Had a quick chat and he told us a few stories. Not keen at all in his Sevco connections, but seemed a nice enough chap. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBFC Posted September 20, 2021 Report Share Posted September 20, 2021 22 hours ago, KA9Killie said: Any time I heard him on the radio, Provan only seemed interested in talking about Celtic and Rangers. At least Gordon Smith generally talked quite affectionately about Killie even though he was a Rangers fan and there seemed to be some devious shenanigans about his transfer when he left us. By contrast, it doesn't sound like the board or the legendary Davie Sneddon were too bothered to lose Provan, accepting a bid before the player even knew about it, then offering him a lift to Glasgow ? Not quite True. Dad was raging at the way it was done. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I presume it was a huge scandal an appropriate punishment was handed down - 10 point deduction and £100k fine for Killie for failing to control our player? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should also add for clarification, that it was the board that accepted the bid, not Dad. Also, Provan lived in Port Glasgow. Why would Dad offer him a lift to Parkhead? 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yer old boy was the absolute opposite as far as every Killie fan will ver be concerned, a gentleman and a legend of a player. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skygod Posted September 21, 2021 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2021 Unfortunately, the Celtic replay was on the Monday, I think, then we went to Ibrox on the Saturday. Too much for First Division part-timers. Typical Killie luck! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
