singin am no fae killie Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 With us going full time, surely this would have made a difference to even the exact same team as last year. i think we have improved our team and, with full time training, and stepping down a division, expectations are high. we are the team to beat and I can't wait. this could, and I'm confident that it will, be one of those super seasons. Our defence is a lot weaker than last year and our stagnant midfield is unchanged. How are we stronger? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No_Problemo Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 Our defence is a lot weaker than last year and our midfield is stagnant midfield is unchanged. How are stronger? Stronger up front, far weaker in defence and we're stronger in midfield by a distance if Geggan plays there, about the same if not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 I can't understand some of the negativity that I'm reading on here. I still believe we have surpassed all expectations in terms of our signings and player retentions and I'd also say we have a pretty decent sized squad for a side playing in the third tier of Scottish football. Add to that the fact that we've done most of our business early (which has been a main gripe in recent years as we left everything late and missed out on most of our targets). What's not to like ? Time for a reality check for some I'd say............. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eez-eh Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 The relatively pleasing state of the squad this early into pre-season is a cause for optimism. It shouldn't however exonerate the actions of those in the club who regularly make a c**t of things commercially. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we can sign all the strikers we want that midfield proved last year there's zero width or creativity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ayrunitedfw Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 Stolen from Dumbarton thread. Would be a very decent signing imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D'Jaffo Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 Stolen from Dumbarton thread. Would be a very decent signing imo. Would be a good backup for Moff and Moore. Think he can also play wide so would give us a couple of options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UpInTheAyr Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 Bit injury prone is he not? Sign him up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
callum-ayr Posted June 19, 2017 Author Share Posted June 19, 2017 Hilson would be a cracking signing, always scored against us with Forfar. Can play out wide as well which would more than just about complete our attack and midfield. Would imagine we would be a more attractive offer for him with full time football unless he has a job lined up. Pre season starts today, wonder who apart from Cairney will turn up.

The problem is Dumbarton can offer him more of an attractive league to a point. Although there could be less of a chance of game time if he goes to Dumbarton.

Also Higgins could be a factor as well as potential title challenge. 3 minutes ago, Joma Boo said: Everyone surely? Probably not, I'm sure Adams and Fleming might not be there...

AUFC 1910 Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 Think I'll probably go, anyone else heading along? I just passed Tam McManus heading in the same direction. Coincidence? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neilly Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 How's McManus getting on at his long term loan to that junior mob? Revitalised and ready to fire Ayr back to the Championship? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
