Craig Stevenson was a defender who came through the youth system. I think he played in a league against Partick, not sure if that was his only appearance. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn’t look so big last week in the bbc highlights I don't think he'll ever be a prolific goalscorer however he's worth his weight in gold in other ways such as his holding the ball up, knock downs, chasing and hassling the opposition defence and generally creating havoc and space for our other forwards. Yesterday as an example, he must have setup at least three or four strikes on goal with his knock downs to Forrest, Moff and Doc, he certainly gives us a different dimension and let's us play in a more traditional and compact manner. All that said, I wouldn't be averse to reverting back to our McCowan, Moff, Forrest formation for the away match at Alloa as so far they've failed terribly in containing us and of course the pitch actually suits our quick passing style. Anyway, great stuff from the super Ayr and lots of options now going forward............ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikedafc Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 Looking at the highlights I don't see anything that the Inverness player did for their goal to be chopped off, keeper made an error and the referee has got him out of jail. Really silly goal to give away by Inverness 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

munro7 Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 Yeah, I think the goal was correctly ruled out. Keepers are overly protected but the boy’s arm definitely impeded Doohan in this instance.I do think ICT’s penalty shout could have been given going by the highlights. Looked like Houston did give the boy a bit of a shove in the back. He might have gone down a bit easy but it falls into the seen them given category for me. About time we got a wee bit of luck against the highland teams though! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazzar Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 Definite arm across the face for their disallowed goal - just very surprised Aitken gave it. Thought it was a penalty too but the same player (Doran?) was rightly booked for diving later on so he's probably the kind that goes down rather than make the most of a decent chance. So Aitken got that right as well (and I can't believe I've just typed that after his abject stupidity at Tannadice). Nice to get a win against hammer-throwers for once and I do like the look of Aaron Drinan - he's maybe not a natural goal scorer but he is young and has time to develop that. His workrate is very impressive and a great example to others - he's also Kerr's first signing so the manager must take some credit for getting exactly the kind of player we've been needing. His physical presence against the aforementioned caber tossers is without doubt a massive plus. He's been a favourite of mine in the past but I think we're not missing an unfit Andy Geggan of late - hope he gets back fit soon though. Thistle on Friday will be different altogether - they need the win and McCall is sure to have them wound up for it. If we can get the same level of performance as in the last two games then we'll be fine but I'd take a point whatever. Come on you, Ayr - let's keep this wee run in winter going. The heavier grounds have cost us in recent seasons so this has been a real eye opener. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think they’re signing Brownlie this week and were linked with Lewis Mayo at Rangers. Can’t see being interested with any of our centre backs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rules out the Ipswich CB then although I think he’s off to a Dundee club anyway. Decent tunes yesterday btw. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly, just joined up two parts of his interview and I expect two experienced players incoming. Cheers, a bold new world with no Gallagher to be heard.

RiG Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 From watching those highlights it's clear to see ICT were denied at least two goals Saturday. If Ayr really are "The Honest Men" they will forfeit the 3 points to ICT. Pretty please. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then when I went to my bed, my mum had washed my bedsheets but had forgotten to put new ones one, fair play to her, but she was all tucked into her bed but I had to put on a new set of bedding onto my bed before I could go to bed and I was all tired and that” Daily Record (Monday 27th January 2020) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
