See Morton are running a night at Cappielow for the Germany v Scotland game. £20 gets you a pint, get to keep the stein and some food. Surely something we've looked at doing, would imagine quite a lot would be interested and a fair few quid raked in through the bar?

Unirea Urziceni, who went on to beat Rangers at Ibrox in the CL that season IIRC, managed by Dan Petrescu at the time.

IIRC the only first teamer was Gibson and should have been sent off for a shocking tackle
Kuszczak, Gibson, Michael Keane, Drinkwater, Norwood, Pogba and Lingard were all players known at the time, either first teamers or players in and around breaking into first team. I am sure Solksjaer was the manager as well.

Ryan Fulton leaving Hamilton, very decent keeper at this level, one we should be looking at. Also heard Killie for the new stand opening and Celtic the following week.

Looking about squads etc and I wouldn’t mind us taking a punt on Dean McMaster from Airdrie. Tidy footballer with a bit of dig about him (was him with the challenge on Syla) and reminds me a bit of Docherty when we signed him. Seems like a Brown type of midfielder. Out of contract this month.

Has anyone heard of any fan zones being set up in the town for the euros?
Find it mental that they're not doing one down the low green with the success of the ravey festival thing the lats few years. Big screen and sell pints. No one will want to bother though. Pubs will be murder to watch it in.

Murdoch signed a 2 year deal with a 1 year option in 2022 and Amartey signed a 1 year deal with a 1 year option last summer so I presume both options have been activated.
Didn't realise there was an option, strange that they haven't said that the deal have been extended.
Just now, THEHonestman1910 said:Reckon McGinty, Rose, Syla and McGeady who are under contract will probably leave too.
RE McGeady, I am a bit worried as I think if he was for retiring, they would know by now. He's not going to play elsewhere now IMO, I mean, who is going to pay him, he's completely finished and has this other position in the club.

Murdoch and Amartey still under contract? So a current squad of 18 and I genuinely mean this when I say that squad would struggle to get top 4 in League 1.

Going by his interview with AU Media, doesn’t sound too convincing that Dowds will be back.

So it can be anyone of Charlie Albinson, Derren Fairns, Frankie Musonda, Paddy Reading, Nathan McGinley, Andy Murdoch, Paul Smith, Carter Jenkins, Dario Viviani, Franny Amartey then you include loans
Reckon the ones in bold are definitely players who’ll be released. Mcgeady may well retire and Rose let go with maybe McGinty.

I doubt Bullen would travel up for a coaching job every day, especially to a club he used to manage.
His best bet is either Falkirk or Dunfermline looking for a manager and their respective boards not looking past a second place finish.
When York sacked their manager a few months back I was surprised he wasn’t sniffing about, get the band back together with Dipo.

So this information would suggest he’d be a loan from Carlisle if he came on board with us ? I’d be hoping we’d be getting in as many permanent signings as possible before we dabble in the loans market.
He’s been released. The retained list shows a list of players under contract and players who have been released.

The central defenders aren’t the issue. We lack semi competent full backs.
Stanger and Sanders have looked good under Brown. Besides the odd brain fart, Mcginty is a solid enough player. And Musonda is a really good player at this level.We’re really weak in wide areas and that’s where most of the attacks are directed against us. Doesn’t help that our two wingers - who are both excellent going forward btw - don’t provide any protection for the full backs either. That’s been the case for the last two seasons.
Oh I know we need big improvements in the full back areas, that's not under question. However, we lose so many goals from crosses by a) not being able to stop the cross and b) our centre halves not being capable of defending the six yard box. Morton goal in the 1-1 a prime example of centre halves not being able to close off their runners or get to the ball first. Stanger and one other is absolutely fine for me.

Musonda is an excellent player at this level. He’s at the top of my list of players to keep. Him, Stanger, Mcginty and, if we sign him permanently, Sanders give us very solid options. He’s got plenty of cover so I’m never bricking it when he’s out injured or away on international duty.
It’s the lack of cover at full back that’s the issue at the back.We have the second worse defensive record this season and people are wanting the full defence re-signed for next season

He is good 50% of the time, injured 30% of the time, on international duty 10% of the time and tripping over his own feet 10% of the time.
he’s a good Championship defender which are hard to replace but I don’t think many Ayr fans would mourn him leaving for too long simply because he doesn’t play often enough.He's been brilliant the last 4/5 weeks, especially at left back. However as you say, he misses on average 15-20 games a season through injury and international games. If he plays on Friday, that's 20 games from 36 in the league, 1 game from 5 in League Cup, 1 game from 3 in Scottish Cup and 0 in the Challenge Cup. So 45 game season and missed 23, so just over half our matches he hasn't been playing. He may have been on the bench for 1 or 2 and not came on.

Currently a back 4 of Stranger McGinty, Musonda and Reading would be stronger. McAllister can pick the pre match tunes then conduct the singing in the SRE
Also Murdoch and Dempsey together doesn't work. I'd much rather have Syla in there with one of them. He can at least break an opposition attack down.
You know, completely forgot about Syla
. Agree with that. Although a toss up between McGinty and Sanders. I really don’t think McGinty will be here next year.

45 minutes ago, Its not only a game said:
Do you worry like most of us lower league teams that many of these players may not be there next year re budget( ie others may offer more to loan players ). Or is it a big meh- hopeless Season - good riddance?
Ideally we can get rid of a couple who are still under contract, release a few who are going to be out of contract and get decent additions in that Brown wants, not anyone else. Everyone fit, I would say our strongest lineup is Clarke, McAllister, Stanger, Musonda, Reading, Murdoch, Dempsey, Chalmers, Murphy, McKenzie, Dowds
Replace the players in bold with new signings (may be harsh on Stanger) and sign the players underlined and I think that’s a good base for next season. Also depends what happens with Murdoch if he’s staying or going.

Looks like he is already here
The framing of the photo could have been better.
I was at Somerset earlier and he was with Shane Power outside the stadium in training gear so imagine he’s back working already.

Here's the table from Brown's first game in charge onwards.
Brown has more or less secured half our points total in 9 less matches and improved the GD all while having a pretty serious injury list. You can't really grumble with that. Had Bullen got the bullet after the Peterhead game and he got a full transfer window, we might have had a chance at 4th. All ifs and buts of course.

Albinson
Stanger Sanders McGinty Musonda
Dempsey McHugh
Chalmers McKenzie Murphy
Dowds
Subs: Clarke, Smith, McGinley, McGeady, Tomlinson, Bryden, McRoberts, Amartey, (Youth Player)
Think it would be nice to give Albinson one last game since he'll be off. McRoberts and Tomlinson to get a good chunk of game time.

I’m no 100% on him if I’m honest. He’s clearly important to Morton, but Muirhead has outscored him this season. He’s also not had an assist in any of his games in the championship. Would be a downgrade on Dowds, but an upgrade on Bryden/McKenzie/Rose. Saying that I wouldn’t mind a front 2 of Dowds and Oakley.
