Guy was there at end of week and was in line for yesterday but could not get Covid test result in time , an absolute unit of a guy , can see him ruffling a few centre half’s 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trogdor Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 (edited) I love a left field signing, hopefully the catalyst to turn the season around. I like that we have the connections to go for signings from down south or Ireland. Too often the same jobbers cycle through teams at this level. I'd really love a combatative midfielder. Also, did someone suggest Moore might be back soon? I may have been reading too much into it but that could be like getting a new player.

No guarantee you'll get international clearance in 2 days. Of course paperwork might have been lodged late last week. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itzdrk Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 (edited) Another thing with getting the right kind of striker in is it will get the best out of Walsh as his crossing of the ball is excellent. Unsure how balance-wise that leaves McCowan on the other side though, maybe back to the left from earlier in the season.

Fine for Tuesday all players and officials tested and passed today , shows we are following all protocols, Miller done a decent job against Adam at Somerset so not sure if he will play him in midfield on Tuesday but certainly Wright in place of Zanatta 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must be through as he was in line to play yesterday but due to time he arrived in Scotland there was not enough time to get Covid test and result is what I was told this morning 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why ?? We all totally get that we're not playing well and aren't getting the results which we want, but we're hardly down and out and staring relegation in the face just yet and nor do I expect us to be. Let's take some positives for a change, we've just gone to EEP, taken a point and never looked like we were going to lose, the following day we're announcing the signing of a new Centre forward who would appear to tick all the boxes and is rated one of the best strikers in the Irish league, yet some are already writing him off as "not good enough", honestly, it's unbelievable. Who said he wasn't good enough? I have only seen either positive or at least hopeful comments about the signing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though 90% of the vocal ones on there don't even attend games (in a normal season). I'm convinced some of them aren't even Ayr fans. Admittedly, I've not seen any posts since they made it private and I'm definitely better for it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure he feigned injury and the ref wouldn't let him back on the field. He was literally jumping up and down with rage. 33 minutes ago, UpInTheAyr said: Checked the SRE and couldn't see a single negative comment regarding the signing.

BukyOHare Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 The new strikers main job for me will be to hold the ball up in the final third and bring others into play, at a tempo I have to add Its feels strange typing it but goals will be a secondary requirement. That's all. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had a good goal record at last club but before that he'd hardly scored any goals, bit of a gamble IMO The guy at our local paper said he wouldn't be signing because "he wasn't what we were looking for". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
