rb123! Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 2 hours ago, WATTOO said: Just watching the Italian Supercopa between Juve and Napoli and the commentators are discussing the state of the pitch and how difficult it is to play a fast flowing passing style on it and they reckon that the teams should be more direct and adapt their style accordingly to suit the pitch conditions. First off, the pitch is like a bowling green compared to Somerset or any other Scottish ground and secondly they've got Ronaldo, Insigne, Zielinski, Arthur, Chiesa, Bernardeschi on the pitch, so if these guys are struggling due to the pitch, then what do we expect from our guys !!! The pitches in Scotland and England do seem especially bad this winter, Leeds pitch at the weekend surprised me cause it looked terrible for a PL team. Makes me wonder if Covid is meaning budgets on pitch maintenance have been reduced and in Scotland, clubs maybe aren't getting in external pitch maintanence companies to assist due to covid bubbles etc. Back to Ayr, i'm for astro if it means a really good surface like Alloas all year to play decent silky football on. I'm also very much still for grass if the club increased the budget towards grass maintenance with a couple more groundsman and heatlamps/quality covers for winter etc. Wonder what the cost difference would be between new grass and subsequent maintenance or switching to astro.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skyline Drifter Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 I imagine most of the bad pitches are because due to other facilities not being open or at points not able to keep players separate from the public, a lot of clubs are using their own pitches for training. Certainly the issue at Morton for instance. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itzdrk Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 (edited) Hey guys, Was good seeing the 500 club hand over a good sum to the club recently, I had always wanted to help in some way but never had anything to offer really. So I came up with this: Some of the stuff looks decent IMO. Wont be a big earner ever but 500 club gets all the cash I get as a seller. I've added a Redbubble too as the shipping on teepublic is excessive for some items: https://www.redbubble.com/people/itzdrk/shop?asc=u&ref=account-nav-dropdown Edited January 21, 2021 by itzdrk 15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lochwood Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Well boy, Mccardle talks a good game can see why he’s got all the badges, psychology, mentality thing well. A bit OTT for me just get them doing what there good at play to there strengths get them in there correct positions and stop the silly mistakes, if we are worried about the other stuff god help us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

callum-ayr Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Kilmarnock haven’t even announced he’s returned and been loaned out. Very strange one. That us now lost 2 strikers with no sign of any coming in. Although not that there was much of a goal contribution between him and Anderson. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryanayr1987 Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Not fussed about him going we wasn’t really used and Mckenzie seems a better prospect. Maybe Kerr will give him a start. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

North British Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 We have to be close to bringing in a centre forward surely , looks like he’s playing Zanatta in there to provide a target to hit , not ideal , but at least it’ll give the team a bit of practise with the system . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

super_carson Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 I think testing would rule anyone out of Tuesday and possibly Saturday depending on how late on we get them signed. Unless it’s a loan signing, in which case could testing through their parent club count? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Testing tomorrow which covers current players to next Sunday , we use private firm and get results within 24hrs , so as long as new guy in by Thursday he will be fine 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
