diegomarahenry Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 Raith weren’t at full strength and they went down to ten men before half time but it was a pretty comfortable win in the end. Raith played narrow and forced our play out wide, for some reason we didn’t have the full backs and wingers overlapping much. Dowds was quiet again and Oakley was forced to play deeper, it was obvious that Raith had worked out a way to reduce our threats. Raith looked a better team at ten men and counter attacked better. We were pretty solid throughout, I thought Stanger was MOTM with McMann close behind, the back four, Dempsey and Rus were flawless. That could be a huge difference this season, if we’re not creating chances, we aren’t giving them away. I have high hopes for Walker and it was great to see him be switched on enough and calm enough to score his chance. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a joy to watch .I honestly can't believe how good he is. 17 year old . Not bad time to have an assistant manager who was the best RB in the country in his prime to coach you along... 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean he was an excellent player, but he wasn’t the best RB in the country. Though, he was probably a better technical footballer than Hutton. Some similarities with Whittaker in the way Watret jinks by players. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AYRSHIRE_ANGUS Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 Surprised at the attendance figure, thought there were way more than last week in both home and away ends. Looking forward to an awayday next week, three consecutive home games felt a bit odd but we properly maxed it out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure there was more last week, on a side note i'm not sure if all the folk in hospitality are included in attendance as the hospitality was packed today which was good to see. Definately the busiest it has been so far i think, long may it continue 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rb123 Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 Sam North was there today too so i presume there'll be a vlog on YouTube soon. The fact him and Blair McNally have been down in the 1st month of the season i guess the club have invited them down 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great to see these guys promoting Scott Brown's Ayr United and our game in general. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We didn't lose a game last year and some folk still moaned. Some boy even did his nut calling the players lazy in a game we were winning 3 nil. Our next home game will be against you now on the 5th October, could be a good game if we're still both playing as well. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UpInTheAyr Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 Composed finish from Walker. Two deft touches from him to get it out his feet before scoring. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hursty Posted August 25 Share Posted August 25 4 hours ago, THEHonestman1910 said: but it sounded an improved watch over last week, against a good team (albeit with 10 men) we were comfortably the better side and didn't look in any danger. At some point you are just going to have to admit defeat and accept that we are a decent side and very good to watch. Its OK to be positive 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superhursty7 Posted August 25 Share Posted August 25 Don't know about any one else but Dowds 2 step walk up to hit pens fills me with the fear every time, to be absolutely fair though he's got it down to a T and the keeper has committed to a side every time before he hits it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the first to come in for criticism when things aren't going well and granted he wasn't tested defensively today, but thought he was excellent. Looks full of confidence and assured on the ball. Could easily have got an assist. Pleased for him and hope he keeps it up Paddy has had an excellent start to the season. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Likewise each time I expect the keeper to save it. I’m much more a fan of Muirhead’s rocket into the corner approach 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUcal Posted August 25 Share Posted August 25 Aye fair play to Reading. He's been excelling so far this season. Its really difficult to identify week spots in the team just now. As starting 11's go, Brown has moulded a very good side. Long may it continue. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reading got unwarranted mentions, played in a shit team last season. This team vs a Bullen team, scary when you watch highlights from 12 months ago 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
