I guess I'm just looking on the face of it and seeing; Ayr - 2nd place - brink of playoff final. I know from Bowyer this season that it isn't as black and white as that because the margins were so fine. 

Ach, you're right enough though. We are in a great position and i'm buzzing for this playoff. It's just that even when we were at the top of the table i couldn't quite understand how. Certainly didn't think it was due to Bullen's tactical nouse or anything like that. Always felt we were riding our luck throughout the season.

Bannigan almost there but will miss the 1st leg, according to Doolan. Cammy Smith out for a few weeks (would imagine we won’t see him again), and Lee Hodson is out with a hamstring injury. 

With no Bannigan or his obvious midfield replacement in Hodson, I guess Doolan’s hand has sort of been forced and we will start with the 4-4-2 that played against QP, despite winning 4-0 without him last time out I think Bannigan is a big loss for this game.

The presence and stability that Docherty and Bannigan give you allows Turner, Tiffoney and Lawless to do what they naturally are good at which is go forward and cause threats to the opposition.

Our performance in the recent 1-1 draw at Firhill was fown to us stifling the impact your midfield had after being very much overrun and second best in the 1st half of that game.

I'd be delighted if Bannigan misses both legs but wonder if it's "Dools" mind games at play.

Very nervous for both games.

It's gonna be absolute banter when Sean McGinty is strolling the Premiership next season and his detractors at Partick, Morton et all are still scuffing around with the wee guys.

Whatever happens, McGinty won’t be strolling the premiership.

There goes the Cammy Smith redemption arc.

Guess McKinnon could play but I think you're right that we'll go with the team that started the second leg of the QP game.

Lee Bullen to take the Dundee job tonight.

Ian McCall appointed Ayr United manager in the morning.

Let's fucking have it.

Wouldn't surprise me if he rocks up on the BBC panel tomorrow night

Proper nervous for this one now. Against Falkirk we always knew we were never going to win the Scottish Cup where as we have a realistic chance of promotion. Come on Ayr 

I've got that nervous buzz.
