They have to be one of the most precious fanbases when it comes to their players being out muscled and out fought. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BukyOHare Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 Do you think the club would be keen on arranging some sort of benefit game for the big man? When someone's been such a fine servant and then has to quit through injury I feel it would be a fitting touch and the right thing to do. In the absence of Barcelona being available what about: Ayr United X1 v Stranraer / QOS X1 It might raise enough for a tank of red diesel for the tractor. Just a thought. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, especially from the point of view of retirement through injury. Make it happen! The Jamie Adam's benefit match Killie? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1nickydevlin Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 I think a half-time send off with a speech and a lap of Somerset in his john deere tractor would be sufficient .or a glamour friendly .no some shite like stranraer or queens .the big man's better than that. Remember john traynors testimonial against Newcastle? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bigger the team, the bigger the fee they'll command. To put in a bit of context, my lads football team tried to make contact with a current SPL player to attend and hand out medals and the like at their Christmas party. They were allegedly quoted £8000. I think the days of English Premier teams coming North are long gone. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll almost certainly have a League game on February 8th. Whilst that clearly doesn't prevent an all stars or retired 11 playing, it does mean it's unlikely any of our fans would get along. 1 hour ago, 1nickydevlin said: I think a half-time send off with a speech and a lap of Somerset in his john deere tractor would be sufficient .or a glamour friendly .no some shite like stranraer or queens .the big man's better than that. 4 different spells with us suggests otherwise. How many European ties did he play in whilst with you? 4 minutes ago, BukyOHare said: Just thought with Queens being an ex team and Stranraer being his hometown team it made a bit of sense.

You're unlikely to get anyone you've ever heard of playing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19QOS19 Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 I assume the big guy is retiring? He was well liked down here and he's probably one of my favourite midfielders from the last 20 years. And he didn't have too many appearances for us. A no-fucks-given player that every midfield needs. Bittersweet career for him I'd say. He's clearly worshipped at Ayr but I think if he hadn't suffered so many horrible injuries he could have went on to bigger things. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's clearly worshipped at Ayr but I think if he hadn't suffered so many horrible injuries he could have went on to bigger things. If he hadn’t suffered so many injuries he would never have been playing for Wigtown and McCall would never have been able to revive his career. After that first season at Ayr he was never leaving the club. I love the fact that he’s seen as a no nonsense hard tackling type player but he was so underrated imo. At times when we won League 1 he was basically our only midfielder sitting back whilst everyone else was trying to score goals. He was absolutely phenomenal that season. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eez-eh Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 Remember being up at Methil near the end of that season and we came from behind to win it fairly late on. Despite having never played a minute on plastic for us until that point, because of his knees, he was risked for the last 10 minutes to come on and body every c**t to see out the win. Would have brought a tear to a glass eye. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And numerous opposition players. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richey Edwards Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 Adams added a bit of aggression and bite to the team that we missed when he was injured. It's a shame that he's had to retire from football at a reasonably young age. A great servant for the club and a great lad as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
