Caledonian Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 2 hours ago, Nelson said: Yep, it took 40 years to find another manager who was successful enough to be wanted by another team. Pretty remarkable really. However since the Ally move to Motherwell we have had managers whom other clubs wanted but did not get. In his time at Ayr Alex Stuart knocked back Dundee and Aberdeen. Willie McLean knocked back Kilmarnock to remain at Ayr. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Bill Leckie has seen Ayr play even once since Bullen took over I'll eat my hat. More lazy journalism from a guy who actually does'nt have a clue what's going on at our club. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finlay21 Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 7 minutes ago, AyrTroopMajor said: Having been the one that brought up the training facilities in the first place, I do agree with the above. However as I said, in the medium-long term, finding our own facility should be on the agenda. I am all too aware there isn't a magic money tree and David Smith deserves a huge amount of credit for the infrastructure he is putting in place, but a decent training facility is something which could very well be the difference between a player signing for us and signing for someone else. Players want to feel like they are working in a professional environment and the stadium/training ground is a big part of the player's first impression. At our walking football sessions at Toryglen we quite often watch Partick Thistle training sessions on the public pitches there , think a good deal of clubs in our league train at public facilities 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayr23 Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Does that Daily Mail article say anything different to the other articles? I’m not paying to read it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hence - sacked. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richey Edwards Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 A dreadful home record and 1 win in 11 games. That's a lot of long-term good. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THEHonestman1910 Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Another thing I really dislike too was that Dipo dragged us to second when we had Kirk, Mullin and Murdoch last season too who were all comfortably better than players of this years team. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUcal Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 The Bullen lovefest is getting very strange. Unless it's to do with the Old Firm, do folk in Scottish football media pay attention to results and general sentiment towards performances at all? Utterly bizarre. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shizzlemanizzle Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 3 hours ago, Superhursy7 said: As a young boy I thought Dalziel was successful but as you get older you realise what could have been done with Barr's money with a better manger he also turned out to be a bit of a p***k as well. I met Gordon Dalziel in Motherwell circa 1998 whilst doing the most horrific student summer job of door to door sales. I didn’t have anything other than a £1 note to get his autograph so that’s what we did. 1 week later (I was a student and had chucked the door to door sales after 4 days) I was so skint that I managed to sell the £1 note to @Utdtillidie2 for £1.30. Kerching! 2 weeks later he was skint enough to sell it back to me for £1.20. The famous note was last seen going into a till in the arches 6 months later during a ‘hazy’ night out. These days I’m pretty sure he would devalue a blank bit of paper by signing it. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
