McKenzie in for Smith in a 442 ...
Aye surely has to be. The 433 was an absolute nightmare against Accies last time.

It’ll come down to whether or not they want to pay Dundee Utd the money. I’ve got no doubts that if they can strike a deal then Chalmers will be off.
Unfortunate but not surprising.
That's a blow - was worried it might happen though. The thought of going with Ashford or JML as actual first picks is a worrying one

The main worry for me about letting Daire go is if Dundee Utd then unexpectedly recall Chalmers for whatever reason.

Perhaps, but it won't be a genuine offer. Very few clubs in Scotland could afford him, and those which could won't sign him.
The bid is probably £50k because they have heard that's what the lads on Sportsound think Ayr would be absolutely delighted to accept.

This Hamilton game next week looks absolutely huge. Home to the team 6 points adrift at the bottom who by all accounts are absolutely rotten, yet in both games against them this season we have been very lucky to get the results we have (2-2, 3-2).
First time this season I'd say we had a 'season defining' game.

Suppose if we're doing a one in one out option, it could go like this...
Bangala out with a midfielder coming in.
Mcallister out with a centre half coming in.
Ecrepont out with a left back coming in.
Smith out with a midfielder coming in.
O'Connor going out with a winger coming in.
Young going out with a striker coming in.
Obviously it'll be a shorter list but those are the possible players who could leave/go out on loan.
There's absolutely no chance McAllister who has started the last 8 games and generally does a decent job as backup right / centre half will be leaving in January.

Arbroath scoring 25% of their seasons goal total in one game v a Dundee team with 5 clean sheets in 6 and who we didn't even remotely look like scoring against last week just about sums this league up.
Also Queens Park the only team we have pumped go clear at the top.

I’d give Bryden a start ahead of both McKenzie and Young.
Not for me, I think he would struggle to get much out of Baird and Ambrose tbh.

Yes!! That's him
He was actually different as in he wasn't a total unknown from the London area non league merry go round. Was actually very experienced at League level, was just miles off the pace and rotten haha.

Who was that other lad from the English lower leagues last season who was also a dud? His name escapes me
Alex Kenyon?

Superb then. The fact nobody around me including myself had a clue why it happened is a bit disappointing then but absolutely applaud the effort.

Couldn't find a good moment to ask this in the match thread, so I'll just ask it here and now. Are Ayr ever going to wear their weird Burnley-esque third kit? It got shown the once on Akinyemi and hasn't appeared since AFAIK. Has there been a distribution issue or something? Just curious?
A really bizarre situation. I actually saw someone in the Hub post match wearing one, surely we are never going to actually wear it in a game.
Actually really annoys me when clubs like Ayr bring out a "3rd kit". It's an absolute piss take. As someone else has said, to somehow market it as a thing to celebrate a partnership that has brought absolutely zero is even worse.

There is no kit clash with any team where an away kit wouldn't have covered it.
On that note, does anyone know why it was away strips all round tonight?

Absolutely dreadful tonight. At 11-10 it looked like we might get a 0-0 but as soon as it went 10-10 it was game over.
Shows what a massive loss Mullin is.
However - I'm still hopeful that we have enough to go to Morton and somehow scrap a 1-1 or something then hopefully see some new faces / Kirk returning.
Feels quite disappointing the now but 3rd going into new year is still decent enough - if we have a good January I still fancy us for 4th behind Dundee, Partick and QP (who I'd fancy us to beat in the first playoff just because we somehow seem to have the beating of them)

I reckon we will get beat tonight (Dundee win BTTS 9/2 for any gamblers) but calling it a miserable end to the year is an absolutely ridiculous take.
Also Bangala booking at 3/1 is a shout. Looks miles off the pace, gets stuck in and will surely get targeted playing out of position.
@diegomarahenry I take it back. That was utterly depressing right enough. Never even looked like scraping the 0-0 while Dundee were down to 10 and game was immediately over when Bangala went off.

Loves the Footy and The Rangers.
To be fair to him despite his English based love of the Rangers he also gives a hell of a lot of time to other lower and non league Scottish clubs.

Looked like Dempsey was training based on that clip the club put on social media earlier, hopefully means he is fit for tomorrow.

Can't see any other outcome except Ayr score a couple of goals but still lose. Should be entertaining if nothing else.

Canny wait for this, booked in to the hospitality for it. Really enjoyed the last meeting, especially with the "both to score in both halves" bet sailing home. Wouldn't be shocked to see the same again tbh with hopefully an away win this time.
And again. Sadly another home win.
Edit - Hospo staff in the Chairmans room or whatever it was were excellent, our pal whos 40th it was got out to the crossbar challenge and got introduced as an Ayr fan despite being as Aberdeen as they come.
Ian McCall came in for a chat at half 2, Room full of mostly Ayr and Killie fans, he doesnt have to do that. Claimed not one Ayr player would get in his Partick side except maybe Andy Murdoch as a sub. Was hoping the result would prove him wrong

I can only assume that he was very drunk or just popped a couple of hundred Mushies.
To be fair, it was 30 mins or so before kick off. Told us they were going to target the full backs and keep Brian Graham away from McGinty. I don't mind the guy, was quite happy to admit Ayr saved his career and especially loves Lachlan Cameron.

Was in hospitality today and had a chat with Ian McCall before the game. He was very confident that not a single Ayr player would get into his current Partick or his previous Ayr side. When Pushed said he would take Andy Murdoch as a sub. Sadly in the end there was no way to prove him wrong in the end

We don’t really have cover in any area of the pitch right now so that is a major worry…
We've got at least one backup option in every position outside the defence at the moment to be fair.

Our hospitality group has had a call saying the undersoil heating is already on and they fully expect game to be on as they don't want to lose out cash wise - they have got over 200 booked for Hospitality apparently so must be pretty confident it's worth the cost of the heating

4-3-3 for us. Jesus. Hope the rain comes on again as this reeks of coming from behind for a point
