Jim Jefferies has angrily denied reports Kilmarnock's players threatened strike action over the club's decision to withdraw an offer of a coaching role to Gary Locke.

FOOTBALL Kilmarnock boss Jim Jefferies - 0

Manager Jefferies confirmed there had been a meeting between chairman Michael Johnston and the squad last week in which the fallout of the collapsed Setanta television deal was discussed.

But he branded suggestions some players were planning to strike over the issue as "ridiculous".

Jefferies told Press Association Sport: "The chairman had a meeting to explain Setanta and in that he was asked about the Gary Locke situation.

"The chairman has said he'd give it some thought.

"Making out that the players are taking strike action is absolutely ridiculous."
