KILMARNOCK FC might not be top of the premiership - but their pies are.

The club took Best Pie in the Scottish Premiership at the 17th World Scotch Pie Championships with the Killie Pie topping the league.

Brownings the Bakers, from Kilmarnock, were delighted to pick up the award - one of seven, including five for the famous Killie Pie.

Brownings managing director John Gall took awards for Best in Scottish Premiership, Diamond Award for Hand Held Steak Pie, Gold Award for Football Pie, Gold Award -Hot Savoury- for the gourmet Killie Pie, Bronze Award for Buffet Pie, Bronze Award for Football Pie-The Boaby Steak and Ale Pie for Ayr United, and Bronze Award for Sausage Roll.

He said: “I am over the moon that once again the mighty Killie have the title of Best Football Pie in the Scottish Premiership.

"All the awards we received were a great testament to my hard working team at Brownings. The Best Football Pie and Best Handheld Steak Pie are fantastic awards to win. We are always saying how good the Killie Pie is and these results just prove it and with me being a Killie Fan, I’m delighted to tell my many Ayr United friends that we are once again better than them! This is a fantastic start to the year for Brownings.”
