Derek McInnes has hailed Kilmarnock fans "remarkable" in the wake of a massive 1-0 win against title rivals Inverness. The Ayrshire side were cheered on by almost 5000 home supporters, and the Rugby Park boss insists he's grateful for their backing.

Killie steered themselves into pole position in the race to catch Arbroath with the three points.A Kyle Lafferty tap-in within the first 10 minutes was enough to send them into second place with a 1-0 win at home to Inverness, just a point behind Dick Campbell’s league leaders.It was a professional performance from the hosts who have now set up a spectacular TV showdown at Gayfield on Friday night with the winner going top.And a delighted McInnes said: “The main priority was to win the game and the players showed real resolve."I don’t think Zach [Hemming] has had a real save to make but we should have picked Inverness off.

We were a bit wasteful."We are a team who look like we are not used to winning at home. Sometimes in games like that there is tension from the crowd, but our fans were remarkable."They got behind the team and were a proper home support and I was grateful because they see the willingness of the team and we had some good moments in that first-half.“We would like to have more control in these games but it is all about the winning.

At 1-0 up we will be better again so we are learning as we are going along. It was 10/10 for effort."The Ayrshire Live app is available to download now.Get all the local news in your area – plus features, football news and the latest on the coronavirus crisis – at your fingertips 24/7.The free download features the latest breaking news and exclusive stories while you can customise your page with the sections that matter to you.The
