North Terrace Gazza Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 You can go back further than that to the 60s and 70s and the pitch was excelent. That surface is a disgrace and has been for several seasons now.Really?? Watch some of the old 70’s games on YouTube and look at the mud bath that they used to play on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trogdor Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Pretty poor from us, 1-1 flatters us. Need to come out and play in the 2nd half! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GiGi Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Well Ayr gave away a cheap pen, we chucked in a silly equaliser. Can't say it's not fair enough at the break. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's something just not right with it just now. A good top dressing would help greatly. I suspect it’s a personnel problem. McCall used to moan like hell about it, but he wasn’t wrong. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn’t imagine the budget for the groundsman is anything like in the days of Harkness under Bill Barr. It was Bill Barr' era that fucked the pitch. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BukyOHare Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Don't like how Dargo keeps saying "Ayr" , rather than "we". Is that George Galloway further along the stand? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's because games are no longer played in those conditions, our surface was one of the best on this island. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rb123! Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 When was the pitch last replaced? decades ago, the simple point will be it's at the end of it's life cycle, you look at the bigger clubs who replace their grass pitches quite often in the grand scheme of things. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can all pick out individual matches where the weather wrecked the pitch (the Valentine’s Day massacre comes to mind), but we consistently had one of the best surfaces around. Now it’s like the surface of the moon. Still, gives me something else to moan about other than Joe Chalmers being rank. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't replace a grass pitch. There'll be a programme of care for the playing season and remedial work carried out during the close season. Some thing's definitely not right with it and has been said earlier its not been right for a few seasons. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colkitto Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 We're playing well enough. Keeper should have done better with the goal. Just have to keep the tempo up and seek the winner. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BukyOHare Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 We got out of jail getting in at half time with a draw. We need to start the 2bd half much better. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, the dive for the penalty was extraordinarily convincing. We really are grasping at straws.
