This game won't be a patch on Ayr 2000 and nothing ever will be again, still always nice to win the league and in tribute to all Buddies past and present.

Well, in my opinion Ayr 2000 wasn’t as good as Dens Park 1977 when a rampant Fergie’s Furies pumped Dundee 4-zip to win the league. My opinion matters not a jot... they’re all brilliant. Any time, anywhere, any season.

The 99/00 season was ridiculous as it was a pretty tight run affair, we had also been tipped as 2nd favourites for relegation before the season started and had been down in the second tier for a almost a decade.

This season has been exceptional - better than 99/00 in many ways -  but the elation of scoring a late winner to ensure promotion will be hard to top.

Question for Brechin fans: Where's good to get a bite to eat in the town before the game? We're planning on driving up, leaving quite early so we can get parked easily, get some lunch and a lager.

Can't beat an away day curry & lager imo, hence The Swan (open 12-2 in afternoons, see if you can reserve a table).  I certainly had a really good feed in there before a game last month.

That or the Stables Lounge around the corner for typical pub lunch type fare.

This no sold out yet? Jesus.

Nah. Not yet. 1500 plus going to Brechin on the Saturday, at least the same going to Tannadice a mere four days later, and news today that our home game against Morton is heading for a home sell-out in our three stands.

Salty Grangemouth tears....

We didn’t actually win the league at Ayr in 2000, we guaranteed promotion ( it was 2 up that year).  It was the following game against Raith Rovers that we clinched the league and opened the new stand. Followed by a 5 nil drubbing up in Inverness. 

Edited to add:  Ayr was a fabulous day out though with Paul Mckinghts goal sealing the win and promotion.
