AUFC 1910 Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 OK, while knowing that it was a complete wind up - my little heart was clinging to the spec of dust chance that it could be in any way, shape or form, true. I actually think I would take Uncle Ian's maw right now - Stevo's gran as assistant obviously. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cass316 Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 Pretty depressing read on here today . Quite a few Ayr fans on here would be a good fit for the Italian Army circa 1940 . White flags everywhere after a 1-0 defeat away in Inverness . So that’s two defeats in seven this season ,both away from home and the usual three or four suspects are mounting a coup d’etat on our club . All in front of the vermin from up the road ! Get a grip ...... Having said the above , nobody is happy with yesterday , or the time it is taking to get two , what will be key players in . Everyone is disappointed. However to lose three starters after testing on thu/fri , while not an excuse does mitigate some of yesterday’s performance. Reading , McAdam and Maxwell in my opinion have nailed down their places in the team ,3 of the 6 that have . Raith Rovers can’t come quick enough for me . We need two players in for that and we need to win the football match . It’s as simple as that . Getting the win is key for the short term , beating QoS and Morton at home in the first round of fixtures is also a priority . None of this is crazily unachievable . All though some on here secretly pray for failure in these fixtures to further their latest witch hunt against their latest Ayr manager . Same voices were there for Kerr’s dismissal and yes for McCall when we went down in the Harkins season . Hopkin however doesn’t get a free pass , if we are anywhere near the trap door after Christmas I’m sure Smith will either through funding at it or remove and replace . L1 is not in the bigger picture , some of you would do well to look at the bigger picture from time to time . In the long game we all want the same thing , Smith is the man that’s going to deliver it one way or another . Hold the fucking line and stop whining in front of the vermin . Don’t give them any oxygen,none .!Here lads, want to see what a happy clapper is? -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McCall reportedly unhappy with behind the scenes at Thistle as he has been denied getting the last few targets he wished and bemoaned to the press the other day about having to run with a small squad. Watch this space #uncleianiscominghome Two chances of this happening.. none and f*ck all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bazka6 Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 Tragic was our kickoff on Saturday where we seemed to immediately try to get rid of the ball, Murdoch back to Aero? who hoofs it straight to the opposition 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruyff, Guardiola, Hopkin, all football managerial geniuses together. I could see Pep coming upto Ayr Academy to watch our training and see how things should be getting done.

No_Problemo Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 Is the loan deadline also on Monday? If so, we are seriously starting to run out of time! Particularly as you can imagine less players being released, due to clubs requiring more squad depth than usual. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUFC 1910 Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 Looks like we may be postponing the game on Saturday. Covid strikes again!! 5 players positive in total now. Training scrapped. Club in talks with the League. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn’t be particularly surprised if we were made to play with what we have tbh, even if it’s basically a kids team. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diegomarahenry Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 Good that they are postponing rather than forfeiting the game. we probably wouldn’t concede 3 goals in the inevitable defeat and goal difference might be important at some point. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UpInTheAyr Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 I'd make us play the game tbh, unless there's no more positive cases this week. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thereisalight.. Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 Not even at the end of Aug and it's been a shambles on and off the park. Covid striking at Falkirk and now us v Raith. Scunnering when you hype yourself up for a game and make plans only for it to be postponed (looking likely) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t think so, I think it was only the cup games you forfeit because of the timescale anyway. We have from Now till April to play the league games. if they do a circuit breaker then it’ll be moved. If there are no more cases then they may make us play based on us having 7 players on the bench on Saturday -2 for this Saturday and that was without Paul Smith. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diegomarahenry Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 Managers with philosophy’s on football almost always go tits up, I can’t think of any who have been a success. Caldwell at Partick Cathro at Hearts Kerr and McCardle at Ayr At least Hopkin hasn’t had them running up sand dunes in the pishing rain or ballet dancing to reggae music yet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

placidcasual Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 Hopefully Flopkin has Covid and is unable to take his place on the touchline on Saturday. Be a massive boost for the team. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
