  1. Taylor seems to be an adherent of the paddy reading school of left backing. That’s three goals lost down that channel in the last two games. Pish.
  2. Fair enough…Although I’m still smarting from when transfermarkt said David Bangala was worth 250k. Didn’t define the currency right enough.
  3. Isn’t his contract up next year at hearts? Few currant buns I work with are slevering at the prospect.
  4. There’s an odd snobbery amongst the “big teams” of Scottish football when it comes to signing players. The fact shankland never kicked on to a much bigger challenge after Ayr is testament to that. He was incredible at Ayr.
  5. Again, another kicker. If Bullen has a role in recruitment, why are there not effective enough checks and balances in recruitment to point out that these duds couldn’t get a game for sayr United in the shoot league? The whole recruitment system is baffling, man.
  6. Tbf, nobody with a whiff of Bullens suggestion about him has been decent. He’s pretty blasé about bringing crap into the team and just thinking they’ll do a job.
  7. Aye. I remember the words “done our due diligence” when signing Bangala came out of Bullens mouth in an interview. Toe curling in hindsight. His eye for a player is shocking.
  8. I think bullen does what I do 8-9 weeks into a season of Football Manager. Just remorselessly click the top right button until the next transfer window/next opportunity to have a big team bust up, with no notice of day to day events or club management.
  9. That’s one of the bigger kicks in the nads this season; The high wage bill. Just a lot cash spent on a quantity of absolute duds, where spending on 3-4 known quality players would’ve done. The wastage and how it plays out on the park is galling.
  10. Fair enough. I was thinking he’d maybe be similar to the likes of Duncan Ferguson. A guy who has had a pretty chronic managerial record recently, but with a bit of intensity about him can get a reaction out of a moribund team. Which I think Yogi might be able to do for us. Btw, I’m not dying on this Yogi hill. He was just the first name that kinda fit that bill (McCall aside) that came to mind.
  11. I’d second that! Brought a bit of dignity back to a club that was in free fall at the time. Bring him back for round 2.
  12. Fwiw, I was just throwing his name out there. Not champing at the bit for Yogi to come breenging in. In any case It’s about as valid a suggestion as the procession of has-beens that’ve been thrown about on this thread as prospective appointments to a job that isn’t even up for grabs.
  13. Bullens going nowhere. As much as I’d like it to be otherwise. And if he were to go there’s really nobody out there who whets the appetite that I can think of. Even if there was would they look at Ayr as a prospect for advancing their career? Beyond the fanbase most other people see ayr as a club eternally in the doldrums with no imminent likelihood of success. I think Bullen thinks this too. In his mind we’re lucky to have him cos who the f**k else would come here.
  14. This might be the cans talking, but I’d take Yogi. Could be the totally batshit left field appointment that’ll get us out the funk we’re in. Kinda akin to the effect Duncan Ferguson is having now. Although I don’t know whether I think thats because I reckon he’d be good or whether it just reflects the dearth of decent managers out there who would see Ayr as a worthwhile venture.
  15. Wasn’t there talk of it being owned by some German company, and being vastly overpriced? Agree though. Would be a great spot for more infrastructure for the club.
  16. Morton, immense. Fantastic. Really good. this is where your season picks up. On the up and up. Dreary, kicking f**k outta folk, non fitba taking you from bottom of the championship to the top of league 1. Brilliant. Laughed my tits off tonight.
  17. Don’t know if he played with Hurst. Signed at the same time as Grady, which was a huge symbol of intent at the time. Kinda like Ayr sweeping in for Boyle and Youan or some other mid table premier league strikers. Those two were very good for a decent Dundee side. He was some player. Hope he gets well soon.
  18. The guy in the shitey meme going “my spidey senses tell me that things are gonna get fuckin’ tasty, baby!”
