    The Official Airdrieonians Thread - 2019/20 and beyond

    in Scottish Championship General Chatter

    I agree that Smith has been working really hard - he's not a liability or anything - but his finishing has went off the boil in the last few weeks and would be great if he could get his confidence back. 
     
    Our front three are fantastic when they are all firing.
    Yes, but I agree with a comment made a few pages past that after the good run teams are fnow finding us predictable and are taking appropriate defensive measures. We need options to play differently if needed, and another striker could be the answer

    Aye,read his report in local paper,never once did he give Airdrie any credit ,on the other hand our manager said that when we got beat 4-1 it flattered us could have been more .Tell it as it was Mr Young you were well and truly beaten ,second to every ball ,.Airdrie played very well first half ,probably the best we have played for a while .

    Let him be, if he is believes his own bullshit he will fail to recognise his teams weaknesses and therefore not work to improve them, so they will continue to decline and cease to be a genuine contender.  Shame though, I would have liked to see them take a point off Falkirk.

    I hope the management team are doing their best to keep the players feet on the ground and not to get over confident. Yes we can laugh at EFs cup result but let's not forget that our own brilliant run followed a similar embarrassing home cup defeat, and that EF gave us our worst defeat of the season at Methil. We need a repeat of the workrate and intensity that was evident at Falkirk, hopefully an early goal to get the crowd behind the team. Mon the diamonds, we have got to the top now let's stay top[emoji3532][emoji3532][emoji3532][emoji3532][emoji3577][emoji3577]

    Where would you rather watch your football for your team.

    Happy to come at this thread from a different perspective - staying at Somerset after the Scottish Executive pissed all over out plans for a new stadium was a prime example of a blessing in disguise. Somerset is a hole, but what a brilliant place to watch football, especially when there's a good away support in the Railway End and both teams are shooting towards their own fans. Wouldn't trade it for anything. The only thing I wish we had was a pub right beside the ground and perhaps a slightly higher level of sanitation in the toilet department.

    That part of Ayr has changed dramatically over the years, Somerset Park used to be surrounded by Industry, now it is housing or derelict land where the railway depot used to be, waiting to be turned into housing, bet the local council wished you had been able to move back then

    Interesting question.. what should Murray do here? Rotate some players and save some of the first team to be ready for the upcoming league fixtures? I really don’t care about a cup run but would love to cash in on an Old Firm draw. I’ll be honest, I won’t be too upset if a couple of changes are made this weekend but back to the regular team for league business

    Don't want to repeat last February though, the form slump following the Celtic game proved to be fatal to our playoff hopes, losing three "winnable" matches and drawing one
