Kilmarnock’s social media team added a light-hearted touch to their online presence, engaging fans with a humorous nod to a recent football blunder.
The team posed an intriguing question to players and staff: “Who is the most famous person in your contacts?” Responses varied, with names like Sir Alex Ferguson, Sir Andy Murray, and even Ed Sheeran making the list.
The fun peaked when one player claimed to have Manchester City’s John Stones in their contacts. The social media team seized the opportunity to poke fun at a recent gaffe by David Martindale, who mistakenly referred to Celtic’s Liam Scales as John Stones.
To capitalise on this mix-up, Kilmarnock’s team displayed a picture of Liam Scales, delighting followers with their clever jest.

It was some great patter from the social media team.
Liam Scales, the real one, has returned to Celtic training this week after he missed Celtic’s weekend clash against St Mirren. Celtic take on Aberdeen in the Scottish Cup semi-final this weekend.
