Who won the replay?

[@DCHurlford1]

Look at that crowd, you couldn't swing a cat inside Rugby Park. Killie had a great team back in the 50's and 60's.

David Cook The same game now would attract about seven thousand!

@@Fernandwinnie You're right William but today the game would be live on TV and the ticket price astronomical. Still, I shudder to think how many youngsters were 'lifted ower'.
