## Season overview

Kilmarnock started their league campaign on 10 August 1991 at home against Stirling Albion where the game finished a scoreless draw. Over the next eight games they only recorded one win against Meadowbank Thistle. Into September Kilmarnock form picked up with four wins on the bounce. This form continued into November with a notable 4–2 home win against Forfar Athletic, with two goals from Ross Jack and two from Ally Mitchell. Wins, draws and a few losses from November into December and the start of January. On 7 January 1992 the Kils hosted Montrose where they had a comfortable 5–1 win.
