North British Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 Only 7 days to go until the Rovers game , with Kerr saying one of the two strikers would be in, in time for the Betfred Cup , did he mean this game in particular ? If so at least a few days training with the squad would be a good idea if possible . If all those stars align then that surely puts us in imminent territory ? On a separate note Aberdeen’s Sam Cosgrove is approaching full fitness and should be about ready after the internationals . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The transfer window shuts on Monday and Kerr still wants 3 players in so expect a busy week. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Championship has been put in the same category as lower divisions for loans this year and has the extra "month". The loan window closes on October 31. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

honestly united Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 Im fairly certain there is no window on free agents, apart from the end of season - ie you cant sign anyone from March onwards. As long as they haven't played (or maybe had a contract) for another club while the window is shut, its basically stopping someone unemployed getting a job if they are not allowed to sign 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im always suprised when you hear fans of clubs at our level go on about the window closing as its a fairly rare occasion we actually sign someone via a transfer - im not sure if Baird counts (was he released by St Mirren?) but before that im sure you would have to go back to the likes of Hurst and Reynolds for the last time we actually signed someone in a proper transfer Edited September 29, 2020 by honestly united 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North Terrace Gazza Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 Just listen to big Lachlan on the sportsound podcast. He has assured all Ayr United fans that he will ensure that we are fine this season even without fans. Obviously he would prefer financial support from Government or football associations but that the directors would support us if required. He did state that some teams, especially Championship sides may struggle. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've moved on a bit since those days. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ayrunitedfw Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 (edited) Kerr‘s comments in Ayrshire Post slightly concerning. Saying the hunt for the striker is going to go down to the wire. We’ve been close on two or three but have missed out on them and the way he’s talking it sounds like we’re only going to get one Edited September 29, 2020 by ayrunitedfw 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be perfectly honest, I don't really think we needed as many as 2 strikers. 1 striker and a full back should be enough. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ve got Houston, Reading, Chalmers, Miller and Hewitt than can all play at full back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we do need 2 strikers as I’ve given up all hope with Moore. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
