The Hoops lost for the first time in nine years against Killie when they went down 1-0 at Rugby Park in the SPL last week in what was Robbie Keane's debut for the visitors.[LNB]After the draw at Hampden, made by snooker World Champion John Higgins and Glasgow businessman Willie Haughey, Killie chief Johnston said: "I know that Robbie Keane and the other players will have more time to settle in and they will be a different proposition from the team we faced recently, but we've done it once and we can do it again.[LNB]"The most important thing was it's at Rugby Park.[LNB]"Obviously there are other teams we would rather have drawn than Celtic.[LNB]"But we beat them last time we played and you never know, lightening can strike twice.[LNB]"We are just glad to be in the quarter-finals.[LNB]"It's very important financially and each round you get through means quite a lot, particularly if you are playing at home.[LNB]"But the big thing is getting to the semi-final stage where the gates from the two games at Hampden are pooled and that's what we are working towards now."[LNB][LNB]
