It's another body in the door at least, although our track level of loan signings from that level doesn't give me much hope he'll he any improvement on the ones we have sent back a couple of weeks ago.
Time will tell though and good luck to the lad - really hope he is here to improve the standard of the starting XI and not just to beef the squad back up a bit

Last time I saw us play Dundee Utd at Somerset we were 5 days off the back of a 0-1 defeat at Auchinleck and we still beat them. Based entirely on that logic i fancy us to absolutely hammer them this time- 3-1. McKenzie probably seeing as he's got more this week than in 90% of his career, new guy we haven't announced yet and McGinty.

@Finlay21 sorry if it's not your role anymore or if its been asked already, but can a senior and junior buy tickets for Ibrox tomorrow? I.e my dad and my son with their season tickets (I don't have one as dont make it every week) but saw the kid one needed an 'adult' one to buy

I was in line. It wasn’t a free kick and it wasn’t a dive. He just fell over.
Makes it all the more baffling Welsh as en experienced midfielder sells the jerseys and gets sent off for a silly foul right after you have scored.
It's up there with one of the daftest I've seen. Basically won us the game

It seemed a really stupid second yellow from an experienced player that basically lost his team the win or at very least draw

Get Ahui back to Lincoln.
Was just thinking that - only 1 loan space left now so need him binned

Happy with that. From memory he scored in the 3-1 game at Somerset and had a good half season at Cove last season.
Hope he isn't on Twitter based on the replies so far calling him a c**t etc

Rose is another Ashford type. Drop him down a division and he'd probably make an impact. Might get away playing against the bottom teams in the championship but will need to step up to cut it at this level
Said the same after midweek- his performances v Arbroath twice and Kelty suggested he'd defo be worth keeping if we did end up in L1 next season haha

Jack Sanders - seems a strange one at first glance

I suppose if anyone is going to destroy our full backs enough to convince Brown we need to strengthen there urgently then Dom Thomas is as likely as they come

Is it still the case that can sign domestic loans in February or was that just a Covid thing?

If you’re getting the train up and looking for a pub, lots of Ayr fans heading to the Rose Reilly before the game. 2 minute walk from Queen’s Park station.
Kids allowed ? Getting train up with my 8 year old and plotting the route that allows a fee pints.

Hmmm. 5pm and no word. Better crack a can I guess. No way I'm taking the chance of this somehow being on and watching us sober

Having played Arbroath last week, it may be possible for both teams to lose this fixture
Yes - it's one occasion where we can't say "the wind ruined that as a spectacle" as I suspect that even in perfect conditions it would still be a bit rubbish.

Aye its absolutely fine the now. Sadly it's not a 3pm kick off though...
Update - I can exclusively reveal that there are 2 empty wheely bins that have blown over on Burnett Terrace. I think this is the wind equivalent of "i live 5 mins away and my back garden is still frozen / waterlogged" so I'm now saying game off.

Hoping to get the interview list down to a final 3 with possible compensation to be taken into consideration I believe

The first hour today was the most bored I’d been at a football match in years. Absolutely turgid, uneventful guff.
Apart from A couple of speculative efforts and McCallister getting made an arse of, nothing happened, not a dreadful performance. Just boring.
Once we went 2-0 up, the team started to actually play some football and we ended up comfortable winners.
Folk booing McGinty, Smith or both was weird when they presented McGinty with his award. Rose sticking his fingers in his ears when he scored, if he thinks the criticism of the team, or even worse, him has been unjust, he can f**k off now. Stunk the place out since he joined and had the lack of self awareness to celebrate like that. He and the team could have used today as a clean slate but that kind of stuff can f**k right off.
No defensive errors that led to opportunities, We were passed around for a lot of the game and couldn’t get the ball back. We had a better shape though and Whyte made substitutions that Bullen would never had made, McKenzie made a big difference once he came on, Rose was effective and actually looked capable for once.
Had low expectations today and they were surpassed by a small margin.Rose seemed pretty happy at the end- made an effort to come over to all the kids for high fives and photos etc like Adeloye used to do. They're all away thinking he's amazing

As said - they can do all the work in the world off the park but success on it is what gets folk coming back.
Tomorrow is a good example with the kids teams offer - my sons 2015s team have most of their squad going- he and one other have season tickets so would probably go anyway, there's 2 others who go semi regularly but looking at the list of names I think it will be the first time at Somerset for a few of them and maybe even the first ever live game attended for one.
What a difference it might make with regards to nagging mum and dad to go back if tomorrow sees a good comfortable home win and couple of goals to cheer with their pals etc rather than a miserable 0-1 defeat with no noise from the crowd other than grumbles / boos etc.
What a day that ended up being - the boys got on the park at Half Time for the penalty shoot out thing - usually something to totally ignore but made today a bit special for me.
Game went as well as it could have - comfortable enough without ever looking great, good draw tomorrow and who knows.

In any case, it does not make one iota of sense that Smith would tell a new manager he couldn’t bring in an assistant manager.
I suspect it would be more of a case that the wages on offer wouldn't be enough to convince both him and his assistant to relocate up here rather than us refusing to pay for an assistant

It's embarrassingly amateur level - "aye the manager is clueless but he's a lovely guy and he does a lot of work fixing up the dressing rooms and gives up his Wednesday nights for training and always gets a round in in the pub after matches so he's got the job for life, cos who else would want it anyway"
They MUST have some sort of barrier between on and off the park with this next appointment. We can't accept brutal performances on the park cos the manager is great off it. By the same token, we surely wouldn't want to be in a position where we were playing well and challenging but the manager was under pressure cos he was shite at mingling with folk after the game / going to community events

The AU Academy post was weird too, talking about the Raith game before Xmas being a magical moment. The cup run where we beat Pollok Elgin and Cove before losing to Falkirk is being over hyped too.
