Highlights

No Chalmers or Houston in the squad. Nice to see Fraser Bryden back in the squad.

If Morton beat us 3-0 they’d go above us on goal difference but hopefully that won’t happen! Ah love this feeling on a Saturday late afternoon. Time for a few beers boys and girls. Have a good night, I’m going too

Assuming because the stadium is on Somerset road?

Morton game next weekend will be a tough game regardless of today’s result. 13 points out of last 15 for them since their scudding from Thistle and 4 clean sheets in a row too.

Cheers Fraser

Planning my visits to Ayr for the rest of the year. Is there a reason we don’t have a fixture on wkend of 26th November?

Agreed but with Chalmers and young being the first two he took off on Saturday it’s just something I think Bullen might do. Hopefully I’m wrong tho as Chalmers should be starting every game especially as you say when we need creativity in a home game.

If he’s fit the only change I’d like to see is Murdy in for Smith (who has done well). I think if we can get a settled 11 for 5-6 games in the trot that would be really beneficial. However Bullen mentioned in his Dundee post match interview that a few players picked up knocks so expect a few changes. I suspect we’ll see McKenzie and Ashford in the starting 11 at the expense of Chalmers and Young. Really need to be taking 3 points from this one IMO. On a separate note Inverness seem to be really struggling with injuries at the moment so expect Raith to beat them on Saturday.

Same starting 11 for Ayr as last weekend. Murdoch still out injured I assume despite what the pre-match report said.

No it’s a typo above, he’s on a 2 year deal until summer 2024

Absolutely agree with this re Dipo and Frankie. Dempsey already being on a 3 year deal looking like a great bit of business

Sorry totally forgot Murdoch wasn’t playing after that result. He’d come in for Smith but I’d stick with Mullen for now.

Think that’s a touch harsh on your team. Could have easily been 4-4 at half time. Granted second half we kept the pressure up and put the game to bed. However at half time I thought it could have gone either way. We looked much better with Young up top with Dipo and Logan Chalmers is an absolute baller at this level. The starting 11 is without doubt our best 11 and should be our default starting 11 every game going forward. What a finish from Ben Dempsey btw. And Special mention to frankie, Alex and Paddy Reading who I thought were also excellent today. No bad performances really! Enjoy your night honest men. I’m going to

I disagree, if he’s not fit he shouldn’t be on the bench. That’s the point of a squad. Bangala and McAllister can play centre back if required. All about opinions though and glad he’ll hopefully be back for next week

Why was he on the bench then?

Yup pretty frustrating to be honest. Going forward I’d like to see this as a starting 11 Albinson Houston Reading Kirk Musonda Mullin murdoch Dempsey Chalmers Dipo Young

94th minute equaliser from Mikey Hewitt for Peterhead at East End Park

Frustrating, shouldn’t be on the bench then.

Also David Crawford David Hutton Thomas Gill Marius Rovde (maybe slightly harsh with that one) Kenny Barnstable

Disappointing result today especially getting back into it. Good opportunity to change it up against Morton in the week and give some of the fringe players a chance. I’d go with McAdams Houston McGinty Kirk Reading Mullen murdoch bangala michell lawson Dipo Young

Was Mitchell-Lawson injured, just realised wasn’t even on the bench.
