clashcityrocker Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 In fairness, the away seats in the stand are decent and you will get a good view - but also appreciate how some fans like to stand. The worst away experience was Falkirk in the cup a couple of years ago where we were all hemmed in like cattle - won't ever be going back there unless it was a play off or something of that nature. As for Saturday - 2-0 home win. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lichtie78 Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 Ayr fans usually quite rowdy when they come up, be faf watching our "stewards" trying to deal with anything in the corner of the main stand. Missed last week and really looking forward to this tomorrow, feels like we are actually capable of scoring a couple of goals now. Home win hopefully to set me up for my football teams smoker afterwards 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tattie36 Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 The official line from Arbroath as of this morning is that if Ayr sell out their stand allocation then they’ll get a part of the terracing. Get buying guys. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1320Lichtie Posted September 1, 2023 Author Share Posted September 1, 2023 Nah you obviously want to accommodate to away supporters as long as it doesn’t hinder the home supporter’s experience…. There’s a happy medium to be found. Up to the corner flag keeps everyone happy. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tattie36 Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 1 minute ago, callum-ayr said: Agree. Even though, in theory, I would love a return to the days of no segregation and swapping ends at Gayfield, we have to admit that those days are gone… at least while we’re in the Championship. I still think Arbroath are one of the better and more flexible clubs in the league in the way that away support is accommodated. Sell enough tickets and they’ll tailor the allocation accordingly. Although I do think that a small area of terracing should be a given no matter how few visiting fans there are as some prefer to stand and others like the novelty. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Football fans can be incredibly strange individuals. Moan like f**k about being treated poorly at away games, will we treat away fans well at our place? Nah, f**k them! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lichtie23 Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 Ladies day tomorrow at Gayfield as well. Ayr support on one side, 100 ladies who’ve been on the Prosecco from 11am on the other. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be like QoS away a couple of years ago where there's folk arguing with stewards and standing in aisles etc as wanting to sit with pals / family and stewards not opening the wee bit of terracing as there's the odd single empty seat dotted about etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calayrdonia Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 (edited) What’s going on with the tickets?? They have been on sale for over a week and had a terracing option and now it’s gone! Why? Theres 72 seats available to buy on the site. What’s going on? Edited September 1, 2023 by Calayrdonia 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
afc_36_0 Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 I would always give away fans at least the corner of the terracing allowing arbroath fans to still go behind the goal 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
