JohnGAYR Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 They’ve still got McGregor and Foderingham so I’d like to think so. If he saw himself as third choice rather than fifth he may want to stay. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D'Jaffo Posted June 8, 2018 Author Share Posted June 8, 2018 If he saw himself as third choice rather than fifth he may want to stay. Unless there’s injuries to both McGregor and Foderingham he’s not going to play. He’s been on the bench before so he’s going for top spot.If he goes to the Championship and does well then he’s one step closer to being second choice to McGregor most likely and will become number one when he retires. I doubt he’ll have much of a say whether he goes out on loan or not. He’ll do whatever he’s told to in order to aid his development. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diegomarahenry Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Two years before we tossed sod on to Airdieonians grave it looked like we had done the same to Morton 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waniche Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Feel a bit sorry for Hart tbh, a young lad trying to establish himself from Celtic >Annan> Ayr....good luck to him. Keepers that have been good have always been a bit older, Nelson, Martin, Cuthbert etc. Tbh I don’t think a loan keeper would be a soloution but in the same respect can’t think of someone to come in and make a massive difference. Is Mitchell (a former Ayr player) not still at Falkirk? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

diegomarahenry Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 I don't think Mitchell has played regular first team football since he left Stranraer. Hart wasn't a good goalkeeper at Ayr, he was highly rated at Annan when we signed him and perhaps stagnating on the bench for a year set him back. His all round positioning and decision making was dreadful. I think some of the abuse he took was over the top but very little of the criticism was, he was given his chance when Ruddy left and like most of the crosses near his six yard box, didn't look like ever taking it. I hope he gets another club and proves us all wrong 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't buy in to that with him, he was offered a contract after the deadline to retain youth players and still decided to leave, one of his family was on (maybe) the honestpage complaining that the club was a shambles and they let him walk out the door to Stranraer, He could have stayed and chose not to. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn’t know that personally about him but know for fact that there has been a few shambles over the years retaining talent. It’s different times tho and a whole different ‘ball’ game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we need to move quickly in the season to have guys signed up next season, we are in danger of losing Forrest and Crawford again next summer for nothing, one of the biggest parts of bringing talent through at this level is the chance to make some cash from them. Two of our most prolific youth players could get to 24 and move upwards and we wouldn't see a penny. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry to bring other teams into to equation but Hamilton and Falkirk over the years signed their talent and then sold them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want relegated. He was at Berwick last season and leaked goals. Only got a game for the under 21,s because he plays for one of the bigots. There are better goalies in the juniors. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He played in a pretty poor Berwick team so was always going to concede goals and picked up a lot of awards in the POTY night as well. You say he only got a game because he plays for an OF team but was only one of 6 OF call ups in a 20 man squad and in the defeat to England was only one of 3 OF players that started. I'm almost certain he got into the squad because of his ability rather than who he played for. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lochwood Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Well been a wee while, contrary to opinion I think Robbies not bad nothing more and would get in the team but going on about him turning several premier clubs down who were Hamilton and Livingston for us don't make me laugh. it seems from sources there's no more money for new players signing the original squad with there wee wage increases has swallowed up the budget. no wonder Lachlan has said enough too many sponges on the board putting in absolutely he haw and as for the commercial side of the club bought my season when they came out and they still haven't got the season books out yet sums that side up the business up AMATEURS. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Few things here to address 1 - Robbie Crawford for the second year running has turned down teams higher up to stay with us. We should consider ourselves lucky to have a player of his quality at the club. 2 - No one has said we’ve no money left. Budget may be tight but that’s the case every year. I’m confident we’ll get 3 more players and hopefully McDaid3 - Both Cameron and McCall have praised the board on numerous occasions so far this season due to all of them putting up their own money to help the club. It’s already known that Shanklands wage is paid for by Cameron and two other board members. 4 - The season tickets are in store. I’m getting mine tomorrow and I’m sure ayrunitedfw got his today as well. Plus I know plenty folk that ordered tickets ages ago and they were delivered. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
