Don’t know how they would get around that as the Hospitality package is until 6pm and the place will likely be fully booked throughout the season
Not actually in the hospitality but served from the building, either a pop-up bar or one of the food kiosks

Don't see why not, you can buy booze at Hampden for concerts etc
Obviously before a game it would be a nightmare to police, folk standing with 2 pints at 5 to 3.
I don’t see a reason it wouldn’t work other than the fact no other team does it.

What are the licensing laws within football stadiums like?
You can’t drink and watch football, even in hospitality, you can drink in the suite during the game but not in the box/seat.
For instance, would the club be able to sell beer straight after the final whistle from the hospitality suite for people to drink on the north terrace, hospitality grounds to be able to take pressure off the hub and maybe get more people to buy drinks?0 -

Lee Bullen can be bouncer.
He always gave off the vibe of a bouncer. There looked like there was always a rage millimetres under the surface bursting to get out.

Open an Ayr United themed nightclub next to the hub.
Call it Club Bangala.
Delay its opening for months, have a few underwhelming events then just hire the venue out.
Fans will love it.
Lee Bullen has a mate that thinks this is a great idea

Does any sponsorship do anything?
I very much hope nobody was stupid enough to ever put money into Bitcoin Cash.
I bought £40 of Bitcoin cash 2 years ago and it’s now worth £76.
we’ll see who your calling stupid in 30 years time when I cash this in

Absolute bootiful! Maybe work on keeping hold of the ball... but a better performance than we've seen of late with our 1/2/3 keepers!
The good thing is that when he’s not comfortable trying to hold the shots, he’s at least pushing it out of the danger area rather than just palming it anywhere

They should do a prize draw. I'd love to do it.
It would be hugely less shite than the half time penalty shoot-out.

Dunfermline play Dundee United on Friday. You’d expect an away win there, Airdrie play Arbroath, an Airdrie win and it keeps Arbroath at Arms length, the reverse keeps Airdrie in the mix. Queens Park play Raith in a must win game for them. Probably the biggest game is Morton & Thistle. Both have stalled, Thistle more than Morton and a draw would be an ideal result.
a defeat for either team wouldn’t be a terrible result in the grand scheme of things. An Ayr win would put us 4 clear of 9th but would most likely leave Inverness a point behind 7/8th place
An Ayr defeat and we’d be in a slightly better position than Inverness would be.

Been pretty quiet from the club in the last week. Normally it would be the time to build up a bit of excitement for the next home game or social media footage of the team in training etc. Trying to generate a bit of engagement.
But I think after the Dunfermline game, it’s been good for a bit of a reset.0 -
Wonder who will have the honour of booting the ball clean over it first

Will be a bit awkward for Scott Brown to have to interact with the guys who rejected him for the The Caley job following his interview.
Were ICT renamed like Rangers ?

If we are continuing the trend of dropping players after they make errors, we could be struggling to name 11 players for this one.
Who knows how we’ll do in this one. I’d like to go back to being a competent team like we were in the early stages of Browns reign. Hard to beat, rather than the team that went through the motions against Dunfermline without looking the least bit interested.
Inverness look intermittent, much like last season, a team you wouldn’t touch on a coupon. They were streets ahead of us the last time we played up there.
2-1 with Chalmers scoring Ayrs goal after coming on at half time to replace Stanger on the right wing.

If you use Ayr as a case study, we had a really good team 6 years ago that had at least 5 players capable of playing in the Premier league. We couldn’t afford to keep them and they all fucked off for free.
We were in the play-off places two years in a row and had we went up the second year, we’d be absolute cannon fodder.last season, we had a bottom 6 team with gem of a goal scorer. If we’d been promoted last season, we would have been relegated already.
Morton have a team that wouldn’t stay in the premier league if promoted and don’t have the money to invest. Their only hope is getting 6-7 players together that can be consistent enough to get them promoted and give them at least a year in the premier league to try and get a foot hold.
Ayr could empty every player in the summer and no one would care0 -

Aye. Won't play again was actually the quote which is clearly not true as he played for reserves midweek and is obviously gonna come on if Clarke gets sent off etc
If he says he won’t play, he’ll be in breach of contract and won’t get paid. Much the same as the club can’t just punt a player out, ban them from training etc.
If it’s true then I can understand why he’d be pissed off. But he’s also a professional footballer who will play based on form and he can’t be surprised if he’s dropped.
I think he’s the best keeper at the club and playing someone else looks like someone is trying to prove a point.

Every chance we’ve had a better afternoon today than we would have done had we been playing.

Defence wise, we've lost McAllister to an injury, Stanger suspension and illness, which meant McAllister was rushed back. Reading to an injury, Mutch to an injury so it has been very patchy with Tomlinson RB and Musonda LB. Lost Chalmers to an injury and just coming back now, although has been out of form.
Chalmers has been played in a way that pretty much renders him useless. Syla being dropped has coincided with us leaking goals, he tried Tomlinson at right back before McCallisters injury and he’s played Bryden out wide left a few times as well.
We have had a lot of changes in defence including going to a back 3 and a back 5, which seems dodgy when we are changing defenders as well as the midfield in front of them as much.0 -

Problem is, if we go with the style of play the players are capable of/used to, it's just a regeneration of Bullen. Shitfest ourselves to safety and it's a factory reset in the summer.
If he went back to how we were in his first three games, obviously Reading is out, We were a lot better, he then started dropping folk, changing things and we started to slide and go from being compact and hard to break down to conceding 7 goals in 3 games and not having a shot at goal in our last game.

A week ago I’d have said we had an outside chance to make the promotion play-offs but now we are more likely to be in the relegation one.
Brown is trying to implement a style of play we don’t have the players for and bending the players we do have to try and suit it rather than the other way around. Unless he changes his approach, we just need to avoid disaster and hope the rebuild he does in the summer is above half decent

Whole thing does, Chalmers up front, McGeady in centre mid, McHugh on the left wing.
I know its a friendly but both line-ups have done f**k all make me think hes looking at putting square pegs in square holes anytime soon.

Did Kevin Twaddle actually play for Ayr?
Yes, he was crap. It was either just before or just after his personal issues.

Bit of keeping the heid needed over the next 18 days. Think we will find ourselves 9th one way or the other by the next home game and there's not huge amounts we can do about it
.
After tonights results, it keeps Dunfermline on the same points with no games in hand and Airdrie 3 points ahead, they don't play their game in hand until April so the league might look a lot different before then. It also keeps Morton close.
On Saturday, Arbroath play Dundee United and Dunfermline are at Raith, The other two games will be teams round about us cutting each others throats.
The following weekend, Dunfermline play Dundee United Queens park play Raith and the rest play each other. By the next home game, Thistle and Morton could be well in the mix. If Inverness win the next two, they would be 4 points ahead and we'd have a game in hand. it wouldn't be the end of the world as long as we stop fucking about.

Non ginger from Biffy Clyro is a Rangers fan.
I’ve seen him at Ayr games, he was in hospitality not that long ago.

If memory serves me right, Belle and Sebastian played T in the park mid to late nineties and the lead singer was wearing the new Ayr top. So new that I don’t think it had been released yet.
It may have been one of the brothers from Bis. I think they wore a. Ayr top at T in the park.
Stuart from Belle and Sebastian made a film a few years ago and the lead character wore a retro Ayr top as a uniform in a restaurant. He also wrote a song called black and white United, but I think it’s more about racial harmony than a Somerset Bob esq number.
There was an article in one of the national papers a while ago about Ayr rivalling Celtic with celebrity fans. Then listed Glen Michael and Sidney Devine…..

The ban is on drinking while watching senior football, you can get a pint at half time at junior grounds. Senior games it’s completely off limits unless you are in hospitality and don’t have a view of the match.
The hub is in a middle ground between being too small for match days and probably too big for every other day. The bar is too small to have 10 bar staff required to serve all the people quickly so pre-orders aren’t going to help. It would be stupid to have a vast space that will only be used maybe 25 match days.
The hospitality will hopefully be booked out to offer a service so it is out of bounds to regular folk. In Europe, there isn’t the same culture of sprinting out the ground on the final whistle or before to beat traffic or get public transport. There are activities around the stadiums and bars selling food and drink.
At Ayr, we only have the car park, so folk wouldn’t be happy with 300 pissed up folk hanging about post match with a pint.
Unless there is space around the back of the hospitality or the north terrace its self now it has a cover, having beer and food sold 5-6 might take the strain off the hub and make the club a bit more money.
