itzdrk Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 I've considered this signing and while a bit underwhelmed im quite happy. Always thought Bell was a tough opponent, even when we were bodying Stranraer. Might get to see a baws oot 523 now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D'Jaffo Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 An unremarkable but solid signing imo. He’ll provide back up for Adams but it’ll be more interesting to see a midfield with both of them in it. Definitely one of the hardest and most solid midfields in the league which should hopefully see us improve defensively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definately going to play nasty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rovers1992/1993 Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 Is Davidson not suspended for our game against you? No someone's mentioned that he only has 4 bookings in the league so far so unless he picks up a red card today( which he did the last time that we played Forfar), he'll be fine for next Saturday.

No_Problemo Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 You don’t want to annoy Davo, nobody does nasty better than him. Jamie Adams would destroy Davidson, this without even taking into consideration his bash brother, Steven Bell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems to be an ongoing problem with fit players in our central midfield and the lack of clarity speaks volumes. Heavily reliant on Adams who himself can’t play a lot of games for different reasons. Also really need a strong midfield to offer protection as we can ship goals for fun at the back. Should our midfield absentees return Bell can also help cover in central defence where someone with a bit of fight would be useful. If this fixes some of our current problems so we earn promotion then his deal is worthwhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUFC 1910 Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 If you look at this signing more closely, and really think about it logically, it could be one of the most inspired additions that McCall will have made in his life. Crawford, Doc and Geggan would walk into any team in this league and maybe, a couple above us too. Excellent signing at the right time. No pissing about from McCall or the board, well done. Now, c'mon Ayr, let's get all 3 points today and then all roads lead to Fife next week!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worth noting Bell was captain at Stranraer who were always well organised and up for a battle. Hopefully can also set others an example and organise those around him which we miss with Geggan being out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with it being necessary, but how many times before has the glaringly obvious been staring us all in the face, only for things to fizzle out without the property action or acquisition made? A very necessary addition, but could also be such an inspired choice of player with the type of personality he seems to be, the fact that this may be his last chance saloon at a title and full time, he knows the league and opposition, he knows our players, has the security of a year and a half contract and can play in different positions. As good a signing as we could ever hope to make in a January window for the exact set of circumstances that we find ourselves in , and done early as well. Hope to f**k he plays a blinder now after all that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Geggan returning at the end of January is our first glimmer of hope on the injury front then this could stop our investment in full time football being completely derailed. Just need to hope Adams can avoid AstroTurf, injuries or a red card for the next three games. After all the good work and progress made I can’t believe we could find ourselves in a position like the last two seasons. Perhaps the media guy can pin McCall down after the game and get some facts around the extent of the injuries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JakeSAFC Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 Steven Bell is a fantastic signing for Ayr, very jealous tbh. One of the finest i've ever seen at the Albion. Its a shame injuries ruined his career because he could've been a good Championship/decent Premiership player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honest_Man#1 Posted January 7, 2018 Share Posted January 7, 2018 Think if we lose on Saturday, it's effectively season over until the playoffs. 4 points behind and two games in hand that they'll likely win will surely be too hard to turn around. Unless we end up winning every game until the end of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikedafc Posted January 7, 2018 Share Posted January 7, 2018 I am amazed at how many players you have out injured, it seems like deju vu from last time you were in this league as it was about this time that we pulled away from you and won the title comfortably which is exactly what Raith will do if they beat you on Saturday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
