AUFC 1910

You could be fucked now for the 2nd derby game if we actually get out shit together!

He sounds a bit like our Callum

Me too - I bought his mum and dad a pie at that game, as they didn't have any cash with them

I've got his mobile number Sent me a very nice text message last year

I don’t know about anyone else, but for me our season starts today!!!!

Get everyone and their granny there on Saturday. The team need us troops!!!!! C’MON YE AYR!!!!!!!!!!!

50/50 I’d say from that photo, which is exactly what the refs are supposed to let go this season is it not?

Let’s not be kidded that Kerrball was the answer - we were falling like a stone and the rot had to be stopped. Hoppyball clearly isn’t the answer either. Who next though?

I would imagine that Smith is….. a. Explaining to his wife why he needs to spend £70k this week. b. Lining up a replacement to slot straight in.

Our season can be saved, of that I have no doubt. I also have no doubt that there is a nucleus of an attractive attacking team that is also hard to score against in that squad. All my doubt now lies 100% with the management team. They must go. If not it will sour everything that the chairman has done so positively up until now, and I think it would be a damn shame to have all the good work off the pitch be tarnished in any way. This should be and still could be a monumental season for Ayr United (hub, fans back, killie etc) but to capitalise on it all, there needs to be a change now, and quickly. The big question the chairman has to ask himself today is……. Lose Hopkins wages in paying him off. Or face relegation, lose supporters left right and centre and take 3 or 4 huge steps backwards and, in my opinion, lose so much more money. Its bitter pill time, none of us like it, but we have all faced it in our lives. Do what is right by the fans, and they will support YOU in YOUR time of need Mr Smith.

100% back the club. 100% back the team. Hopkin out.

I’d happily contribute a 3 figure sum to a crowdfunder to get rid of him right now and pay him off.

Is he been binned yet? IF he stays until Saturday he is getting pellets from me from the off. I feel sorry for the players, the fans and the board. We have been sold a complete and utter dud. Hopkin Out!

We were all told, and told, and told again. Some expected it, others hoped. I hoped it wouldn’t happen, but it has been unfolding in front of our very eyes a game at a time. Get Hoppy Out

Well, I’ve kept my powder dry until now, but I have had enough of Hoppy-ball. Hopkin out now - not next week, not next month, not at the end of the year - now.

Fans mood: Ayr -1 , Raith -1

Is it just me that would play Moffat in the middle of the park? I think he would be perfect playing the Mark Kerr role that we so badly miss. He is composed, can slip a simple but effective pass and doesn’t need to run all over the shop!

Odds on Hopkin bringing Peter Grant into the coaching team when he gets punted from Dunfermline

Or, if you watch results long enough, there will be a gap. Only kidding* *hopefully

You missed out Baird’s red card

Looks like we may be postponing the game on Saturday. Covid strikes again!! 5 players positive in total now. Training scrapped. Club in talks with the League.

OK, while knowing that it was a complete wind up - my little heart was clinging to the spec of dust chance that it could be in any way, shape or form, true. I actually think I would take Uncle Ian's maw right now - Stevo's gran as assistant obviously.

Please tell me this isn't a wind up - please, please, please

I just feel flat as f**k in a season that we all should be buzzing. Games against Killie, Partick, Hamilton etc. I bought a season ticket on that basis, and I’ll always turn up, but it’s already getting to the stage where there is no anticipation and I’m going to the dentist. I don’t know what the answer is, wait a while longer, change manager now - who really does know? What I can say for sure is, that if I’m feeling that way already, then there are fewer and fewer left who are anywhere near optimistic.

I still believe we have a team out of that squad. Unfortunately, I don’t think the manager is the one to pick it. 2 more losses and I think he has to go. My only worry with that is - who next?
