    We have played far better shooting towards the Railway End in every game under Brown. 

    The Queen's Park game would beg to differ. And it definitely damages the atmosphere.

    Edit: unless you mean we played better in that particular half against QP, in which case that's true but it wouldn't be difficult.

    You kicked off, so we chose ends. We seems to do that a lot, presumably to annoy the home fans. 

    Mullen got us a point tonight. We lost our way after scoring and didn't wake up again until the last five minutes or so.

    Nah for the last few games now we have warmed up in the opposite half of the pitch and deliberately shot towards the home end in the first half. It's something we're assuming Brown has chosen to do but it is baffling.

    Afraid to say that's what I did today - opted for an amateur game instead.  There's just absolutely nothing to get excited about with watching us at home these days.   

    Can genuinely understand why people do this. I enjoy football much more when I don't remotely care about the outcome.

    Watching Ayr United is a total chore and, as someone who tends to only go to home games, this season has been one of the worst I can remember. Watching third rate players gift the away team 3 points in the freezing cold. Cannot be arsed.

    Feel a bit for Bryden because he's just a not very good striker but is being asked to play wide despite not being quick, a good passer or dribbler.  But he is terrible, he shouldn't be playing.  

    This is a huge part of the problem. I cannot comprehend the fact that someone who is so blatantly not up to Championship standard in his supposed 'natural' position has been given a new contract and a starting role on the wing every week. It is genuinely like playing with 10 men.

    Tomi's goal everyone just looked knackered or they completely switched off. The fact he scored and they got level came as no surprise and it took a moment of brilliance from McHugh, who looks very good technically, to turn the tide.

    Musonda had a mare for Adeloye's goal, completely lost him. Wondered at the time how Adeloye managed to find so much space but that is why. Quick change of direction and he was away and Musonda was left with his arm in the air praying for offside.

    It really is poor and has been an issue for seasons now which Mathie said was going to be addressed, yet hasn't.  Obviously the vantage point can't be rectified until the new stand is built, if they chose to go over there, but the sound and picture quality is just horrendous.

    The British Pathe lads filming the 1925 FA Cup Final would be turning in their graves at that. There's better footage from the front lines at the Somme.

    Not even just the audio and picture quality either. After McHugh's goal, they decided to show a replay of Sanders' own goal and a close range header from Adeloye instead. I appreciate they are volunteers and Lauren is a very good summariser but if we are charging actual money for that, it needs to be a priority.

  7. Had no idea until last season just how different the gradient is between the Railway End and the Somerset Road End at Ayr. Absolutely night and day in terms of the view, SRE is slightly smaller but the gradient is far better for being able to see, which is mostly unfortunate because there have been some utter clusterfucks from the Ayr defence up at the away end over the years.

    Having never done Arbroath away, I went for Morton as my first choice, although I very nearly didn't as the pumping we received at New Year in the rain is still an extremely fresh wound.
