SotesBornalichtie Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 No complaints about the result, the only positive to take from the game that it was only 3-0. It was all over as a contest in the first half hour, Ayr were far better than us all over the park, so a bit of a wake up call after our good start to the season. It's always going to be a tough match when it looks like the opposition have more players on the pitch than you have and that was the case today. Second half was more of a damage limitation exercise. I think it's fair to say that playing Donnelly up front on his own is a waste of time at this level. He sure ain't a target man and can't hold the ball up when he does get it. Couldn't believe that he wasn't subbed when the changes were made, although by that time there was no way back into the game for us. So fair play to Ayr, they are sharing the top spot on merit and it doesn't look like losing their manager has had any effect. Expect to see them in much the same position at the end of the season. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

relichtie Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 If we needed a lesson that we need to be at our best all the time and almost faultless, we got it today. The difference between full and part time was a country mile today. Well done Ayr. Best team I've seen this season. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lichtie23 Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 Did we deserve to lose 3-0 today? No........it should have been 6 or 7 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trogdor Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 We were phenomal in the first half it could have been 5 or 6. In parallel with last week, second half was all about game management. Forrest, Harvie, Docherty & Kelly outstanding for me. Hope Kerr's injury wasnt too bad he was standing on the touchline for the rest of the game and seemed fine to me. Great start for Sandy. McCall who? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broath Boy Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 Absolutely pummelled, especially first half, a wee bit more even second half although Ayr I’m sure took the foot off the gas, Dick said close season we would take some beatings, today was one, no stars in Maroon today, maybe McKenna but poor overall. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guy's don't beat yourselves up about this game , we are in the zone just now and playing beyond our A/ game ! Your results this season in general and your performances against DU in particular tell s everyone you are in this division on merit and are a team to be reckoned with . Keep it going and you'll be fine . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayr23 Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 What a result for the Super! Btw that pub across from the ground was the worst Tutties bar I've ever been in. Total disappointment. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rb123! Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 Superb result, thought we'd struggle more today than we did, look forward to seeing the highlights. Kerr go off injured I take it?f**k McCall well and truly with that celebration today. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D'Jaffo Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 I was surprised at how poor Arbroath were at times. The two centre backs in particular couldn’t deal with Moffat and the quick passing between the front 3. Jason Thomson was ripped to bits by Forrest and Harvie and Bobby Linn couldn’t get anything from Geggan. They won’t go down though. It might be tight but I’d imagine they’ll finish mid table. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plesslitchie Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 Totally disappointing/ embarrassing today. question is were we just having an off day or were we just completely exposed by ayr?! IMO everyone played poor, how we picked a motm I'll never know, ball boy deserves it. The substitutions were mind blowing, we are losing 3-0 what do we have to lose by going two up top? Dick seems determined to "use" these loan players - keeping their clubs happy/ all midfielders happy, didn't work today. I've always trusted in dick but today was wrong. If it's true that goldie swanned off on holiday then he deserved to be benched. Mikeys dive was the cherry on the cake of today for me - shocking. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gone fishing Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 Outplayed outthought and dc again subs are baffling same as last week against united . We are 3-0 down today we make 3 subs all at the same time 2 of which were like for like defensive midfielders Donnelly please give me a break is and will never be a hold up centre forward. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lichtiekev Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 Just a small thing hopefully someone can clear up, why did the ref stop game to allow Kerr to be subbed when Jamieson had the ball?? Wasnt a head knock or that?? Is that another new rule 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
