Jim Murphy: Hoping for Hampden poetry as Ayr United & Kilmarnock lock horns
THIS week is a big one for football in Glasgow - and for a change the biggest game doesn't involve the Old Firm.
The top match isn't taking place at Ibrox or Celtic Park, but at Hampden. It's the semi-final of the League Cup between Kilmarnock and Ayr United.
I know there is a second semi the next day between Falkirk and Celtic but it's Saturday's game that should really capture the imagination.
These best of footballing enemies rarely meet competitively and so this may be the biggest clash in the history of the two Ayrshire clubs.
