rb123! Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 Away end won't be open for Ayr fans as there aren't enough stewards. Club say they asked the council several weeks ago for permission to build a gate in the segregation fence but still waiting for reply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richey Edwards Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 That was a good solid performance. A good solid win. A good solid three points. A good solid opening home match. A good solid salad from Subway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UpInTheAyr Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 It's good having someone like Higgins in the team, seems like he bosses the defence. Didn't catch what the penalty on Geggan was given for, I assume holding, although it was some header Rose scored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ayrmad Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 We need to find higher gears than we've found in the last 2 games, a forward and centre half should be quickly finding their way onto McCall's "must get" list, wouldn't put him off signing a keeper either.

diegomarahenry Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 I have nothing against Forfar or their fans but I hope Gary Boland and his shower of shitshovelers get relegated, more Airdrie than Airdrie Thought 3-0 was a fair result, didn't look like running riot but didn't look like getting beat either, Forfar are a stuffy team, looked like they were trying to kill the game and didn't threaten much. I thought Mensing was going to be a bombscare but I thought he looked ok, the number 11 looked a decent player and I am still amazed someone pays Jim Lister to play football. We looked like we struggled with width, Crawford didn't look fit, McGuffie and McDaid weren't used for spells and pretty much everything went up the middle. Probably made sense in hindsight to take Moffat and McDaid off, they have played a lot of football the last few weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D'Jaffo Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 Rose or Crawford could've got MoTM today. Crawford edging it because of the goal. Didn't think we played particularly well but it's a good sign when you can win so comfortably without playing well. Get some of young boys in for Tuesday so that Moffat, McDaid etc are ready for Stranraer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we're scoring eight with one in reply we don't really need to find higher gears, yet. We don't really need a centre half, certainly a striker though - Moffat is wonderful to watch at times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm also not surprised we took Mcguffie , Moffat and McDaid, probably right to give them a rest after the midweek cup game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I watch the opposition not getting free header after free header then I'll probably agree that we don't need a centre half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
placidcasual Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 Pretty lethargic performance today, but like last week I'll take a straightforward win when we don't play too well. Crawford motm by a country mile. Thought McGuffie was starting to come onto a game when he was hooked. I'd have been happier to see McDaid go off. He done very little apart from the goal. Moffat's touch and movement was excellent. Docherty poor again, lost possession far too often.Forfar looked decent. Had probably the clearest chances in the first half. The number 11 had a really good game. Think they'll be in with a shout of the play-offs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forfar came to sit in - it's not exactly easy to play free flowing football - we had a hard game midweek too. Yes thought we were defensively poor from crosses, however I'm sure that can be rectified without bringing in a centre half. Couldn't tell who was constantly losing their man - Reid is also there to bring in as well as Adams being an option in there too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Venom Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 Not sure why we'd need a new centre half, yet anyway. Taking the Hibs outlier away, we've scored 23 and conceded 4 in competitive matches so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have nothing against Forfar or their fans but you wish them to be relegated and reckon they're more Airdrie than Airdrie..... The Airdrie comment is an insult, to even compare us to them is bad but to say we're worse than a club who is more Clyde than Clyde. You come across like a Morton fan. They were always putting down the smaller teams in the division because they thought they were too big to be playing us. The fact that Leagues 1 and 2 are full of mainly part time teams says more about how poor Ayr etc are to be down amongst us. You might see yourselves as a big team, which you are, but are such a poor full time lot that you're, at least for this season, in this division while smaller perocial teams are in the Championship and you're not. Show some humility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dee_62 Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 Thought the game was fairly even until the mysterious penalty decision. After that, the difference was that Ayr took their chances and we didn't. Had arrived expecting a real doing. Happy with elements of the game. Marc Scott #11 is getting better each week. A bit of composure and we'd have been right back in the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Show some humility. Easy there Foxy Gary Bolland is an angry arrogant tit who builds teams around the ethos of "gamesmanship" Players like Lister and the number 10, the goalkeeper who managed to waste about 10 min of the first half taking 4 by-kicks and another 5 min having some sort of breakdown after Moore scored, I'm not sure if he was praying or crying, Mensings challenge on Moffat, Lister grabbing the goalkeepers face at a corner, his barge in to Rose, It is these people I hope go down rather than the badge they play under.
