It’s all a ploy to confuse the opposition imo. Seriously though, I think McMann has been great but I do worry if he comes up against a physical centre forward like Graham or Kane. I don’t think he’s suited to winning many headers and given we now have Devlin, Stanger and Musonda as central options, it makes sense to move McMann to his preferred position of left back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that’s the case it suggests Brown has no intention of playing the best left back in the league last year at left back at any point. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who needs the best left back in the league last year playing left back when you have Paddy “the baddy” Reading Edited July 23 by muZZa__44 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our first up back four should be : Watret Devlin Mousonda McMann . 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a game! Go as Ayr, conveniently sell one of your lesser players to Chelsea for £100 million, raid the lower Dutch leagues for players and get promotion 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richey Edwards Posted July 23 Share Posted July 23 The one and only criteria to start at left back is to play well in the League Cup group stages. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can see defending corners that we really lack a commanding presence in the box. It's probably more noticeable because McGinty existed prior (although we did have our fair share of awful set piece defence with him there). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itzdrk Posted July 23 Share Posted July 23 Think to have a realistic chance at going through we firstly need to manage to beat Stenhousemuir (obvious but worth mentioning) but we would also need to have a winning margin of 3 or more. Think it's unlikely as we have only managed 5 shots on target so far while the forward line gets used to eachother. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muZZa__44 Posted July 23 Share Posted July 23 (edited) will likely need high scoring wins in both games to advance so obviously we will end up with a 1-0 win here and 2-0 win over Buckie Edited July 23 by muZZa__44 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nelson Posted July 23 Share Posted July 23 That game against Accies on the first day of the season is beginning to look like a minefield with all the ex Ayr players they’ve now got! That said, we’ve got 4 ex Accies players so maybe it evens out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, we’ve got 4 ex Accies players so maybe it evens out. In the context of the discussed 2005/06 squad, the ex Ayr players in the Hamilton team are not terrible. Capable of playing well but also capable of being awful. I have the fear that playing against former employers will motivate them to the former. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just pretend to be a Nigerian Prince, tell them they have won the lottery but that they have to send you £(insert suitable amount) to release their winnings. Quicker and easier.

I’d probably agree with that, only player that’s left that I think would potentially get into the team is Chalmers. Not sure I’d have him ahead of Henderson though and as you all know I’m a massive Chalmers fanboy, 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
