Couple of good results to get started would make all the difference

They both come across as guys who think they're doing a great job

Suspicious!

Do they even practice penalties?

Apparently they're not selling Kobayashi so that would be a fun one

Smith's comments about using the existing staff seem a bit weird and forced.

Stanraer's goal came from a corner that Dallas awarded even though the ball never crossed the bye line. Still angry at him for that.

I wasn't at that game but seeing Ayr win 7-0 on ceefax is one of my early football memories. When did we last score 7? I'm thinking a league cup game under McCall against either Stenhousemuir or Berwick? Before that maybe the 7-1 against Stranraer under Dalziel?

I'm just surprised there was nothing in the article about how beloved Lee Bullen was.

Some of my favourite football memories are of games played in abysmal conditions at Somerset Park, but would agree that an early decision would only be fair on the Arbroath fans.

Hopefully they'll do walking away then.

This very much reads like his agent putting pressure on Ayr to finalise a deal.

Courts is the guy I've wanted from the start, but I will freely admit that I'm dramatically underqualified to determine who would be the best candidate, so at this stage I'm just trying to avoid investing so much in one possible outcome that I can't enjoy any alternative.

I feel dumber for having read this garbage

This is credible

Not that confusing when you consider who made the decision. Farcical.

Rubbish draw

Ultimately it doesn't matter what anyone believes. We're literally just entertaining ourselves and this entire discussion will be forgotten as soon as someone is appointed

How do I know which rumour to believe?

If this date of birth is a prerequisite we should look at the Cheshunt manager. Seems to be a character.

I'm not falling for that old chestnut again

Where?

To be fair to the guy, someone who would compromise their own career based on a childish football rivalry would definitely be the wrong person, so he passes that test.

I see people saying Brown will either be a triumph or a disaster on the field, but I think you're all completely underestimating the possibility of things just being ok indefinitely.
