Utdtillidie2 Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 Tbf, even if it’s them or the Glasgow 2 it’s cash for the new season. If we had another Scottish team or an English outfit, unless it was their 1st team I won’t pay to get in. It’s a dodgy time for friendlies, make the most money but sell your soul? Choice is ours/theirs… 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richey Edwards Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 Aston Villa were Ayr FC's first opponents at Somerset Park. Perhaps they would like to come back? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUFC 1910 Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 I say take the money. Whoever can bring in the largest crowd - go with that. Come December, no one will be bothered who we played, but I’m damn sure we will all be calling for a signing or two come January. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doob76 Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 I understand why folk don't want to be associated with the OF. But like it or not, with Scott Brown & Aiden McGeady in the place, we do have links, which we'd be crazy not to capitalise on. Whether in terms of organising friendly games, or signings/ loan deals. For me, it would be quite nice to see Somerset Park full & bouncing, to kick off the new season. Where do we fit them all in though? Surely we wont end up with the new stand being full of Celtic fans on the opening day? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyrAtlanta Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 The reality is if you want a glamour friendly in the summer now, the best you’ll get is one of those two. Pretty much every English Premier League team goes to America now and below that is meh. Don’t exactly want to be opening a new stand against Barnsley or something. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superhursty7 Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 I would take one against Blackburn, I know they aren't the club that once were but Ally McLeod was a legend as a player there so we have that link, but yeah Celtic or Killie it will be and it's a bit meh but will hopefully bring in some money for Brown to invest in the squad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUFC 1910 Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 I know this goes against the grain with many, but any chance to play the DKBs is ok in my book. There can be too long in between competitive games against them sometimes. And as far as Celtic is concerned, I’ll take that too - beats getting pumped by the likes of Cowdenbeath (which leaves a scar that is hard to remove). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diegomarahenry Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 I don’t care who we play pre-season, the games mean nothing and the results reflect nothing. playing Kilmarnock I guess, benefits them as it will definitely be a competitive game that they need before being pumped out of Europe by a team of Gibraltarian waiters. Celtic, we’ll get a big crowd and some cash, almost to the point that Ayr fans need not turn up. Maybe we’ll have signed a player by July. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not even any news on anyone accepting or rejecting contract offers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The players must have a deadline, Nathan McGinley is still technically an Ayr United player for f**k sake, if we offered him a contract, I’m sure he’d sign it within seconds, assuming they had made a mistake. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s one of the players mentioned as expired contracts. In the same section as Musonda, Reading and Albinson they announced the three that were freed and never mentioned him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shizzlemanizzle Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 (edited) Sweden are kicking their heels this summer. Let’s offer them the chance of revenge. They might not bring a huge support but the ‘aesthetics’ could be worth it alone. Edited May 21 by shizzlemanizzle 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get Ikea involved to dish out free meatballs and I might be on board with that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
