There was famously no wind in Scottish football back when Brown was playing. It's one of those new things introduced to make games more exciting.
There was wind but he just didn’t notice cause he didn’t have hair back then.

Following on from the transfer speculation gage in our thread a few weeks back, I give you….
I was just thinking this thread is not even close to bin fire status until we see some pics of Bill Barr and Airdrie fans with their pillowcases on, over to you Airdrie fans

While I don’t encourage diving the only way the ref red cards goldson is if syla goes down and if he had no one would’ve called him out for diving as goldson was off the ground and had no control. Silva should’ve been booked again no doubt. Biggest problem was we were playing the rangurs

I think I remember him signing around the same time as Henry Smith but don’t think he ever actually played.
Combined age of about 88 the 2 of them, could have sworn I remember him playing at least once.

Conspiracy theories are not opinions. "I think team results mean Mathie should consider his position" is an opinion. "I think Mathie declined to interview Gary Bowyer because he wants a head coach who will play the team that the MD selects for him" is a conspiracy theory. Too many people on here have invented several facts that get them from point A to B.
That’s your viewpoint and I don’t consider you dim. Happy to move on if you are.

Speculation is one thing. Building on layers and layers of speculation to invent a whole new reality is another. Every bullet point there is a wild conspiracy theory which requires someone to have accepted as truth a whole bunch of deeply counterfactual arguments. If you look at any of them and don't immediately laugh then you're in too deep.
By far the most likely scenario is:
- Bullen talks the talk but ultimately lacked in several key areas. He leant on, and was in turn carried by, several strong signings until opponents saw through his reliance on them.
- He was sacked because there was no excuse to get a drab scoreless draw against an injury-plagued team who had been bottom of the league for most of it.
- The club's recruitment program has some serious flaws, but these are due to inexperience or a lack of money as opposed to a sinister conspiracy by Mathie and Glendinning to repopulate Ayr entirely with inner-city London wingers.
- The lack of transparency in the last week is par for the course.
- The number of managers to have actually sat down with the board so far is zero. It is rare for mis-season sackings to result in immediate long-term replacements, and the appeal of Ayr as a job is a bit indirect.
- There is absolutely no factual basis to believe that Bullen calling himself "head coach" and not "manager" has anything to do with his role being restricted from the traditional scope, and any time he or the club has been asked they have said the opposite.
I knew you were taking the piss, so to speak. My point was calling people thick because they have a viewpoint on a situation at the club they support is harsh.

Very clever.
Right now, a sizeable chunk of people on here believe most, if not all of the following:
- Graeme Mathie is a control freak who demands complete control of Ayr United from signings to tactics to substitutions.
- He hired Lee Bullen specifically to nod and smile and visit nursing homes. Lee Bullen, who left Sheffield Wednesday and travelled hundreds of miles up north to join Ayr without his family because he wasn't given the control he wanted at Wednesday, happily agreed with this.
- Mathie is unhappy that the fanbase forced Lee Bullen out by calling him bald. This forced the managing director to sack him. Otherwise he would happily have allowed the club to be relegated because it meant he could keep telling Bullen to bring on Mark McKenzie after 75 minutes.
- Mathie will only accept as a replacement another yes man, who will want no control whatsoever. This includes none of his own staff, no control over signings, and to do whatever Mathie says.
- Tam Courts, Gary Bowyer, Ian McCall, Scott Brown and Jose Mourinho have all been interviewed for the job already and immediately turned down because they did not agree to the above.
- If he can't get his choice of manager, Mathie will either take the job himself or deliberately see the club run into the ground to spite the fans.
I call this Operation Head Coach, much like Operation 15-Minute Cities, another thing that retired people are mad about on Facebook.
Has this been taken from Mathies contract offer to any prospective candidate? Thing is this could all be true or all be false or something in between but to call people “dimmest lights” because they are guessing/speculating about Graeme Mathie and his part in running the club seems harsh.

The biggest problem Mathie has is that current communications are so poor that the dimmest bulbs in the support have decided he was leaving wee notes for Bullen in the dressing room saying "mind and get your boy to miss his penalty today Lee, you know I want Ayr United to lose" and the club is doing nothing to contradict it.
So your saying even thick people are starting to question if mathie is getting things wrong, may be something in that then.

If Mathie is the one telling managers that he signs the players, could he fucking get a move on and sign someone.
