This is utter nonsense, fans are completely entitled to complain about the absolute shitshow that is Ayr United at the moment. At this stage people complain as they care, apathy has set in when they don’t - that is far far worse and I don’t think it is too far off for many of us. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How exactly is saying except the hub brushing it aside? It's the clear one good thing about the club at the moment, im asking what else are the club doing that's good right now? The chairman is buying parcels of land to redevelop the stadium at some point, no plans have been seen so the jury is out on that one but it could be good. I appreciate the club have been open about having issues having normal service just now so they may not have access to the website away from desks but here's a very simple example - our next home game is the last home game before Christmas and the midway point in the home season along with being a massive game for our survival hopes, social media is still there and there's no drumming up of traffic to say about festive stock or half season tickets. I hope that Smith's recruitment for the non-football side is much better than he's shown so far and once he has his own staff throughout the club that things improve, I'd much rather not be interested in that side of the club at all like I normally was but it's been a mess since the change of ownership. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diege Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 (edited) I'm all for the upgrades and redevelopment around Somerset Park, its well overdue and its what the Chairman is proven in being good at, so yes this is a positive What isnt, is the reason we all go, the product on the park. I dont want us yo-yoing between League 1 & Championship forever, its all I've known as an Ayr fan with the odd Hampden trips here and there. Theres no doubt Smith cares about the club, but I feel on the footballing side, we need a bit of long term planning and expertise. As @itzdrk says, if hes buying pockets of land around the stadium and teasing us with big plans, lets hear them and move on, and not use it as papering over the cracks with an awful football team. Its like its being held for the armageddon moment. Stay calm, we're building more hings whilst we plunge into League 1 This game on Saturday is bloody huge btw Edited December 2, 2021 by diege 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm absolutely scunnered and the radio silence regarding on field matters ain't helping my motivation. I've got my season ticket so I'll go but I'm getting dangerously close to the territory under Roberts where I was so fucked off I stopped buying a season ticket and only went as and when. I'm still contributing to the AU500 fund but have serious doubts about continuing it. It really irks me that a penny of my money goes into McGinty's pocket (insert any of Hopkin's haddies here). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hazbart Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 There is zero point on n the chairman/club investing buying land and building social clubs if the product in the pitch is so poor nobody goes to the games…… 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hursty Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 Just noticed that after 15 league games, only Adeloye has scored more than 1 league goal. That's absolutely depressing. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
