diamondman Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 Surprised that there has not been a comment on the forthcoming fixture before now. Set to travel to Somerset next week with a degree of trepidation. On my last visit 3-0 and Chris O'Neill sent off. There have been better results in years gone by; think the first time I was there was 1979-80. 0-2. Bobby Russell ( the hairy ,ex Morton, one that played for us) and Willie McGuire. Will be happy with a point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D'Jaffo Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 Airdrie are the only team that we've not played yet but seem to be in pretty dire straits (behind the scenes anyway). McCall said he hopes we'll have a full squad to chose from but I can't see Crawford making this one and who knows what's happening with Moore. Pending any further injuries I'd play this teamJordan HartAndy GegganMichael RoseChris HigginsPaddy BoyleDeclan McDaidRoss Docherty Jamie AdamsCraig McGuffieMichael MoffatLawrence Shankland Subs; Avci, Ferguson, Reid, Gilmour, Faulds, Murphy, McCowanI'd take another unspectacular win just to try and keep up the winning run. Put your house on Shankland to score as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chapelhall chap Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 Will be there as I look forward to a trip down the Ayrshire coast and although the results have been mixed over the years it is still worth visiting a stadium with a bit of character about it. As for our prospects I think we will be well organised and hoping to rely on counter attacks. I'd be delighted to escape with a draw in this league at any away ground.

mps02 Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 Personally I will take a 2-0 win for the good guys. Shankland and (finally the Moff ) to score. Buckie United seem to be in a dire state with the boardroom games. There is even talk of not being able to see the season out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryanayr1987 Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 Going for a 4 nil win. Shankland hatrick and Moffat to score for his 100th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stan Quinn Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 I fancy a good home win. Robbie , Moorey and Forrest played in the U20 earlier in thd week and I think Crawford will start but the others will make for a better bench. 3-1 win with Moff getting his 100th goal.

ayrunitedfw Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 Always enjoy games between Ayr United and Airdrieonians/Clydebank/Airdrie United, they always have that bit of 'edge' to them. McCall has a bit of a selection headache for tomorrow with potentially a full squad avaliable to him. For me we need to go either 4-4-2 (Hart, Geggan, Higgins, Reid, Boyle, McDaid, Docherty, Adams, Crawford, Moffat, Shankland) or 4-3-1-2 (Hart, Geggans, Higins, Reid,Boyle, Adams, Crawford, Docherty, Moffat, Moore, Shankland). Would be happy with either of these line-ups. Fancy us to win this one 3-1, Shankland getting 2 and Moffat finally getting his 100th goal. Nelly Furtardo to get a consolation for Airdrie.

diegomarahenry Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 4 unreported injuries manifest causing a completely rejigged line-up and Ayr to win 1-0 thanks to a Shankland goal 2 more players injured during the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
