Yeah that’s the only time I’ve ever seen us lose to Raith at Somerset. Was the opening game of the season iirc and we played with Alan Forrest and Paul Cairney up front. 3 minutes ago, grumswall said: Did we not play them with Ryan Stevenson in goals at Somerset under yogi? I'm starting to buy in to Bobby Barr saying we would have stayed up if locke wasn't punted *shudders" He had a great game as well. Made a wonder save in the first five minutes and I was wondering if it was going to be one of those nights. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had to borrow a pair of Cammy Bell's gloves which were in Ryan Hardie's car or some nonsense like that. I remember telling people at work the day before to sink money on Ayr because we still didn't have anyone signed. The morning of the game, it was incredible to watch the hours tick away with no update. Thank f**k we're away from that shitshow. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never, ever feel confident going there. I've seen us win there once, a 1-0 win in 2000 (Thank you Ansah Owusu!) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
renton Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 I think I've seen us win down there three times? The aforementioned Ross Callachan and Ross Matthews game, a midweek game I think Grant Murray scored from a header at a corner and one was a rare outing for Javier Amaya (dont think he scored but remember the blue boots) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was that not essentially the only save he actually made also? We naturally packed the defence and stopped shots happening but he did do pretty well coming off his line etc as well iirc. It's that old thing of every 'keeper started out as a striker really. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There ended up being three red cards. It was midweek so not sure that many would've got to it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wardy Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 1 hour ago, Broken Algorithms said: Aye, same season. We played them right at the start of the season and both of the Rosses (Matthews and Callaghan) got on the score sheet if I remember correctly. As for Locke, we'd have just kicked the can down the road. If we'd held on, it's hard to see where we'd have improved. Callachan. Sorry. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea how I could forget the rousing rendition of Hopkin GTF from the SRE at full time. Red cards for Muirhead and Afolabi for us. We offered absolutely nothing in that game and I think we started with about six defenders on the pitch. Sure Zanatta scored as well and got it right up the fans booing him on the terrace. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

itzdrk Posted September 26, 2023 Share Posted September 26, 2023 (edited) This will be a comfortable away win. Raith will exploit our full backs plus McGinty and Bullen can't get his team up for home games.

AUcal Posted September 26, 2023 Share Posted September 26, 2023 With the quality that Raith have in positions that will be up against relatively weak areas for us, I can't see us getting anything here. Raith will be able to exploit those areas that QP did not on Friday, while also not playing a ridiculous system that leaves them vulnerable. Ayr 1-3 Raith 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raithie Posted September 26, 2023 Share Posted September 26, 2023 Last time I seen us win down in Ayr was when Lee Bryce (think it was him, or maybe Carcary) played for us. Have vague memories of it being a last minute winner. We had left the terrace behind the goals and were pretty much at the exit down by the main stand ready to leave when the goal went in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UpInTheAyr Posted September 26, 2023 Share Posted September 26, 2023 Aye I think Bullen really has to adopt the if they score 4 we'll score 5 mentality for this. Would start Senga just to throw in a wildcard option, someone Raith won't be able to account for. If he is more conservative in his approach I can see a drubbing on the cards. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

callum-ayr Posted September 27, 2023 Author Share Posted September 27, 2023 Was in charge of our 3-2 loss last season away to Partick in December where he had a part to play in all 3 goals for Thistle, absolute clown of a referee. Genuinely probably the worst that's floating about Premiership/Championship, which is some accolade. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
