ftk Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Interesting news that Ayr Rugby Club might be moving to Dam Park. Surely Ayr Utd and the town's rugby team could share facilities either at Somerset or a purpose built stadium? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

callum-ayr Posted July 20, 2017 Author Share Posted July 20, 2017 Interesting that we currently have a squad of 22 and 10 of them are players who have came through our youth system. Crawford, Forrest and McGuffie are most noteable graduates from our Academy and I hope 1 or 2 more make an impact this year like they guys have. ETA - I'm lying, we have a larger squad than that, 3 signed players are missing from that photo! Brian Gilmour, Jamie Ballantyne and Grant Thorburn.

D'Jaffo Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Gilmour not there? Good shout, thought someone was missing. Maybe he's leaving but I'd expect it's because he's still with Rangers part time and couldn't make the photo shoot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like a training complex somewhere, never going to happen, but I think that would be much better. On a side note, if we get a decent win v Clyde on Tuesday, id like to see McCall give 2 or 3 of the younger players a start v Annan. Let's face it, they're going to have to play at some point, maybe testing Waite out at right back, Ferguson at left back and giving either Faulds or Balfour a start in midfield with 1 or 2 of McCowan/Murphy/Hilton possibly having a chance in the forward line at some point.

If we win our next two games the chances of us being seeded in the next round is extremly high. The 4 teams competing in Europe (Celtic, Rangers, Aberdeen, St Johnstone) and the top 4 group winners are seeded in the next round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see Ayr being seeded and a Hearts/Motherwell/Hibs etc not being. From a money spinner prospective, we'd rather be unseeded I reckon.

Knock-out rounds The eight group winners and four best runners-up progress to the second round, where they are joined by the four clubs competing in Europe - Celtic, Aberdeen, Rangers and St Johnstone. The seeded teams in the last 16 are the four European clubs and the four group winners with the highest points totals. The tournament reverts to a traditional knock-out format from the second round onwards, with ties decided by extra time and penalties if the scores are level after 90 minutes ETA: Taken from SPFL website.

No_Problemo Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 From a winning it perspective I'd like us to be seeded. This, why take a possible money spinner in the last 16 (which might not even happen) when you could have a much better chance of a quarter final and being a game away from Hampden.
