Episode 30: Jimmy Clark

Synonymous with the club across several decades in numerous roles, Jimmy Clark is perhaps best known as the trusted first-team coach when Kilmarnock lifted the Scottish Cup in 1997. A tactician with a focus on the defensive side of the game, it was his set piece plotting which set the platform for Paul Wright’s winner on that sunny day in May.

Jimmy's story is much, much more than those five years with Bobby Williamson and Gerry McCabe. A supporter since the 1950s, he fulfilled a dream when he became a key part of the early 1980s Killie midfield. Later in the decade he returned as a coach, only to find himself restored to the starting 11!
