    This popped up, no doubt because I had sat through the Somerset Boab video. Not seen this before but some of the drone footage of the old girl is fantastic. Apologies if its been shared before.

     

     

    That's a good photo, I would like it even better if all the roofs were the same as the Somerset Road end and those trees were cut down at the railway end.

    For golden oldies only. Can anyone identify the missing players?      That 7-2 defeat by Celtic is about the only game I've left early. After the 5th goal I think. That came in the 34th minute. I missed our magnificent 2-2 draw over the remaining 56 mins.      

    Ayr Utd:
    Sproat, McDonald, Murphy, McAnespie, Fleming, Fillipi, Doyle, Graham, Ingram, Phillips, McCulloch Subs: Cameron McSherry


    Goals: Graham (42 pen), Doyle (55)

    To cheer everyone up - I’m giving away 2 x mounted “Somerset Road End” prints away to our Ayr P&B posters.

    All you need to do is post your best and worst ever Ayr players you have seen in the flesh.

    I’ll pick winners later tonight and get them posted tomorrow 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

    Best  ----  John Sludden

    Worst ---- Mohammed Benlaredg

     

    I honestly can't remember his name, but he came on as a sub away at Livingston, then he got subbed a few mins later for being utter crap. He has got to be the worst player ever to put on an Ayr Utd strip.  Can anybody help me out with his name?

    Very underwhelming appointment but at the same time not surprising. Doesn't bode well if Smith was amazed at the calibre of candidates applying and we've ended up with Hopkin.
    Wonder if it was Hopkin leaking to the press despite Smith trying to keep lips sealed

    90% of the others applicants that Smith might have been talking about would probably have been looking for silly amounts of money to manage Ayr Utd, as in wages and player budgets.  The other 10% would be more realistic of what we could afford to bring in as a club.

    Have you watched any of the games? Competed very well with both Livi and Ayr and dominated Stranraer (the one team at our level), albeit only winning by one in the end. Not seeing how you're getting 'poor championship team' from that.

    I'd be very surprised if McKinnon sees playoffs as a good result, don't think this is the case at all given the obvious standard of the players he's brought in.

    Do agree that we're one or two short as far as the squad goes but we've got time yet.

    Having a player sent off didn't help you guys today. I honestly don't think you will have much to worry about this year.  Good luck for the season ahead.

    Could they not run a hybrid system for a period of time so that everybody becames aware of the system and it gradually beds in? 

    They should have had it set It up for the Ayr Utd open day, so people can order their free tickets online. Then our fans can use then to gain entry to tge open day. Like a free live test of the system and also for the fans to get used to it.

    McDaid will score yous 10 goals, he’ll be fitter and sharper as well with the full-time training he’ll get...good signing for Dundee

    Depends on what McDaid turns up for Dundee, he had plenty of chances at Ayr, but he failed in most of the games.  Some nice touches, but his final pass/ cross was terrible.  He could prove me wrong, but I doubt it. Good luck to him.
