Sunday, 7th Feb 2010

"It certainly brings back memories for me. It was wonderful, I was working for Sky and it was great to see the old stadium rocking again."

Jimmy Calderwood's last visit to East End Park

Former Pars boss Jimmy Calderwood returned to East End Park as a studio guest for Sky TV's live coverage. He gave his thoughts to the website as he departed after the game:-

"It certainly brings back memories for me. It was wonderful, I was working for Sky and it was great to see the old stadium rocking again."

JC has only been in the manager's chair at Kilmarnock for three weeks but of course he has cup wins over Falkirk and Inverness Caley Thistle under his belt along with a home league win over Celtic. He continued:-

"I thought Dunfermline played really really well and they contributed massively for 75 minutes to a wonderful cup tie. It was brilliant to go 2-1 ahead, the only black spot was Celtic getting their second goal just before half time. If they had gone in at half time with Dunfermline winning it could have been different.

Andy Kirk scores from the spot

"They brought Robbie Keane on and we played against him on Tuesday night. Honestly for the first fifteen minutes Jimmy and I looked at one another fearing the worst - the pace of his passing, his movement but we got through it luckily enough. We got the break with the goal and hung on for a wonderful result for us.

"It just didn't happen for Dunfermline today but I was impressed with Dunfermline I thought they did really well."
