    The main defence of him here seems to be that he can cover multiple positions in the back 4. Can someone with a better memory than me recall how many times he’s actually done this?

    The only time I can think of him playing at centre back this season was one of the top 3 worst Ayr games I’ve ever watched, at Cappielow in January.

    He can cover centre half about as well as I could cover an incapacitated Boeing 747 pilot.

    Literally played left back in our most recent game.

    So that marks 9 league games under Brown's tenure, I think (10 since he was appointed, but he was in the stand for the Arbroath win at home).

    So with a quarter of a season under him, what's the general consensus? 5 wins and 4 losses is the record.

    Do we feel we are starting to look quite safe? Are we confident going into next season? Is the jury still out? Is this squad just far too inconsistent to make a judgement on managerial ability so far?

    Noticed this form table and couldn't believe it. This league is nuts.

    I'm genuinely in disbelief at the form table there, we've been rotten for a fair few games under Brown. We're so inconsistent i just want us to secure Championship football next season and then see what happens. The random selection policy has me concerned but I can't argue with the form table. 

  3. Yuuuuuuuge three points and another step towards safety. Cannot fathom this team: one week we're totally lifeless and the next week we're throwing bodies on the line and winning every 50/50. Jamie Murphy was outstanding tonight, although McGinty also played very well and great to see him score in front of the cameras too. 

  4. Thankfully Musonda is out of contract, I imagine he'll sign for someone else in this league or go back down South.

     

    The highlights are an infuriating watch. McHugh (x2) and Stanger (x2) losing the ball trying to play out from the back in the first half before Sanders fully commits to the bit and we lose yet another needless goal. It really was one way traffic: players not getting close enough, crosses coming in unopposed, attackers running through us without being checked... Just an all round clusterfuck of a performance.

    What on earth was that temper tantrum from Paton about at full time?

     

    Proper heads gone effort

    You could see there was a reaction to something someone said to him in the second half, he was looking in to the SRE as we were taking a goal kick. He was obviously pretty upset about whatever it was but it was a bit over the top. Perhaps if any of the Ayr players showed as much fight as Paton we'd not be losing 2-1 going on 5-1 at home to Queen's Park.

    Maybe some players are carrying knocks ( does not mean to say they are injured to the extent of participating for a small part of game )

    Hmm. McGinty makes crucial error in previous game and then is dropped for the following match. It does seem a bit of a coincidence, does it not? If it were a one off I'd be inclined to agree with you but there is certainly a pattern with Brown and I am concerned it won't hold up long term without damaging squad morale and ultimately results.

    That being said, the team he put out got a massive win and that's never a bad thing, the humble pie went down a treat with a nice bottle of plonk.
