[*] Gallery

Most football websites have a gallery of pictures of the players; we thought "Sod that, let's have pictures of the punters instead". There's now one of me on it, at long last.

Note that there are a lot of images on this page, so those with slower connections may want to browse with images off. The ALT tags are just as good as the pictures anyway.

Want to know how Ayr fared against Falkirk in 1923-24? Ever wondered what our all-time cup record looks like? You need the Historical Statistics Page.

All this and more, brought to you by Jim Cameron, the man with whom K*llie fans would least like to be stuck in a lift.
