He was last seen in juniors, not sure where he is now though. Still a glorious moment, though I suspect Arbroath werent too fussed as it guaranteed them a season of the "Rangers money" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good wee player I thought, hope he continues to get his career back on track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShortSideCity Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 Like everyone else I'm really concerned by the lack of strength in defence, however looking at that line-up I don't feel as bad.Either way it's going to be a difficult game away to Alloa and just hope we have enough to get the job done!

Meathead Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 If Rose and Ferguson are going to be the full backs I'd have Rose left and Ferguson right. Rose has two good feet and probably wouldn't get forward all that much either way - playing him on the 'wrong' side wouldn't make that much difference. For Ferguson's faults he does put in a good outswinging ball on the right, but offers pretty much nothing from the left. Ferguson's also likely to need a bit more defensive support and he's more likely to get that from McDaid on the right than Forrest on the left (assuming that's what we go with out wide).

D.Armour Appreciation Society Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 If it comes to it, and he's fit, play young Waite at right back ( the novelty being he is a right back ) This would allow Mr. Adams to play in the middle ( where he is most effective ) and also allows Crawford to play on the left, providing cover to Ferguson at Left Back. Easy. But won't happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honest_Man#1 Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 How on earth anyone who watches Ayr regularly can’t rate Crawford as one of our best players is beyond me. One of the first names on the teamsheet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No_Problemo Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 'Hopes are high' that Geggan will be fit according to Ayrshire Post. Would be huge, just to allow Adams to play in the middle of the park and to get Crawford out wide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
callum-ayr Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 Waite to Darvel, plays right and left back Ballantyne to Cumnock, left back and centre back Thorburn to Troon, left back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hursty Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 Just that we think it was reckless rather than malicious, but that the ref has to look at it again and agree it wasn't a red. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the Raith fans posted this on their thread too. Don’t really understand this - surely the point of an appeal is to get an alternative view? As opposed to that of a potentially pig headed official who can’t admit wrongdoing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair this might help us as the referee has already admitted mistakes against us this season so who’s to say he won’t do it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This isn’t quite as clear cut though. A referee could explain why he gave a red there, despite it being very harsh. Particularly when it is his reputation at stake.
