Replace us with Celtic and add in Annan or Stranraer and that's a cracker of a League Cup group 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were then treated to years of obscurity in Division 2 / League 1 with occasionally escapes for a season at a time to the 2nd tier. I feel bad for any Ayr fan who missed out on watching Glynn Hurst in the flesh. 15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dalzeal payed something like £100k for him but he was also really unlucky with injuries, I'm sure at one point when he was with us he was linked with Arsenal. Yes they were brothers 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thumper Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 (edited) 3 hours ago, diegomarahenry said: The only thing I remember from that game is Merengi, who was playing wide left, sauntered across the park while the ball was in open play, game going on around him, and told Roberts he was coming off and went and sat on the bench. I misremembered that he scored a couple that day (he didn't) but he was still absolutely sublime. Never a falser dawn in human history than that football match, for Marenghi as much as for Roberts or indeed for Ayr. Hadn't thought about him for years. Went from demolishing a Europe-bound Motherwell to retiring at the age of 24 when East Kilbride released him.

Caledonian Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 (edited) 3 hours ago, shizzlemanizzle said: 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. On 24th May,1928, this team lined up in the Stockholm Stadion: Bob Hepburn, Norman Price, Willie Fleming, Willie Robertson, Jock Watson, Alex Sharp, Jim Nisbet, Danny Tolland, Jimmy Smith, Jocky Simpson and Billy Brae. Sweden: Bertil Linde, Valter Gustavsson, Gustav Petterson, Osterkvist, Sture Nilsson, Arthur Johansson, Herbert Sahlin, Nils Jonsson, N. Lindkvist, Valle Larsson and Grandkvist. Nils Jonsson (50) put Sweden a goal ahead. Jimmy Smith (59 and 61) then Jim Nisbet (88) beat goalkeeper Bertil Linde to make for an historic scoreline reading Sweden 1 Ayr United 3. Smith was denied his hat-trick by striking the bar with a second half penalty. It was a great performance after a train journey from Norway lasting thirteen and a half hours. Incidentally the Stockholm Stadion was built for the 1912 Olympic Games. Edited May 21 by Caledonian 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sign up every year through habit more than anything. Jackpots at over £9k which is a great lift if you win it but it’s only won about twice a year. Be better if there were more winners. They changed it recently to try and stop the jackpot building up. Seems like it’s worked! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

muZZa__44 Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 Only things other clubs in our league are announcing are triggered contract extensions (Moult with Dundee United, Muirhead with Thistle etc) we’ve already dealt with the players who had them (Amartey and Murdoch) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, they were charging us a good fiver a head more, claiming we had better facilities in that stand than the home fans. I mind John Dalton and a few others discussing with a policeman why we were trying to dissuade people from buying anything. Guy actually took it on board and said fair enough. Post match, a load of Motherwell fans and Aye fans had a dust up in a side street, right where i'd parked. Took a bit of a kicking that day till one of ours pulled me off the deck and got me round the corner. Went back for my car after 6 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
