Shibuya Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 Atmosphere comes across quite well in the Airdrie highlights package. Still can't get my head around that 700 away fans figure, seems way too high. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They would need to have had about 3/400 in the main stand to get that figure, only about 300 max in railway end if that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roxanne's man Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 Talk about a surprise! Was talking to the wee man about great games I've been to at Somerset, whilst walking into Troon toon. Started talking about the 2-2 draw with Killie and the last minute goal by Alex Williams. Literally crossed the road and there's the man playing golf was happy to say hello to us both. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've always found judging attendances at Sommset a difficult thing, such a deceiving place! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've found recently Brownings stuff is mostly just shite in general. Empire biscuits have no where hear enough jam, the caramel tarts have that horrible chewy caramel with stale pastry. The steak in their pies which used to be pretty decent is now gristly and chewy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seconds away from a thoroughly miserable afternoon and then that happened 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got utterly drenched but the scenes after Williams goal were incredible. Dean Keenan scored a lovely diving header for us as well if I recall correctly. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 2009 Ayr v Killie game was the last match my Papa went to before he became too unwell to go to games. What a last goal to have seen in person. I was in the SRE and feared for my life when that went in. It was Bedlam. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously with you being the referee and your boy just watching because, well, the alternative would quite wrong. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People whose clothes were soaked right through to the skin from the torrential rain jumping about like mad, was absolute pandemonium in the best possible way.

There was a fence between us and, as much as I hate admitting it, the wee man is getting a bit heavier to just lump over a fence. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are fortunate to have such memories. Most of my memories around AUFC consist of acquaintances, alcohol and stupid decisions, rather than such great family memories. Even when I took my own children, they were never really interested, just wanted to be with Dad on a Saturday afternoon. Tho they have fond memories of crazy seagull shenanigans.... I don't think they remember a single bit of footie. Even took them to Hampden for the killie semi, they remember the mad singing on the bus haha!

AUcal Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 Thought the atmosphere was decent last night. There was even singing in the North Stand at points, can't remember the last time that happened. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodders1910 Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 That was the best I've seen us at Somerset since I can remember. Musonda and Henderson linked up brilliantly along the the right hand side in the first half. Dempsey was outstanding and won everything in the middle. Rus once again was brilliant at driving us forward and picked out some excellent passes. Was absolutely buzzing when I got in from the game but it's hard not to get carried away! Only moan (because I just have to)is as others mentioned, the amateur camera placement. Also hope they are planning on putting toilets into the unfinished ends of the new stand? Because the toilet situation is a bit of a shambles at half time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
