Ugh that's shit. Any idea when we will play the Hamilton game? I'd planned to take my cousins weans to that as a "new year" treat
Just seen the draw for the diddy Cup and they appear to have changed the dates, ties now being played Jan 10/11. So the Hamilton league game should be fine.
I put the original diddy cup dates in my phone to watch for potential league game changes. So either the website had the original dates wrong or someone has seen sense to change these games to midweek.

No - I assume the clubs will have to agree a new date shortly. I wouldn't be surprised if its the following Tuesday night after the original date.

That's our home game against Hamilton off on Jan 7th thanks to yesterday's result. If Queens Park win their next tie it would also move the away game in February to midweek too.
Absolute joke.

When I was about 9 or 10 my old man took me to Somerset Park one weekend then to Ayr Rugby Club the next, both within walking distance of the house.
I quickly figured it out, told the old man I'd be going to the football on my own quite soon thereafter. My older brother's brain unfortunately never properly developed so he follows the rugby to this day and still has the unfunny rugby "bantz" to prove it.

Is the Celtic game much of a cash cow these days? Every time I've seen a domestic cup game on TV there the number of empty seats is ridiculous.

I remember getting out the Ayr flag I had with me on that ferry for some pictures and the staff going nuts at us because they thought it was going to be a Rangers/Celtic sectarian effort. Must be some laugh on these ferries when the Old Firm are playing.

If Hamilton beat Inverness on Saturday then our home game on January 7th gets shunted to midweek.

Tasty club badge decorated empire biscuits now on sale in the ground. Honestly this season keeps defying all expectations.

Like, perhaps the Present Value of an annuity, which is what these 10 years tickets are, at least from an accounting POV. So, assuming a 4% rate (bog standard long term rate assumption), a £7,500 a year payment stream for 10 years ha a Present Value of, wait for it….£60,831.72…less than half the £125,000 this could generate. If you want to buy the hype about inflation, we can go to a 6% rate, and see the Present Value drop to £55,200.65.
The one downside is the loss of the delta in ticket price over the 10 year period, but with the pricing at £5,000, it seems well over the odds to be a nice net positive.
Never thought I'd see actuarial chat on P&B

Is Geordies Byre still closed as I used to stay and work in Ayr and this was a favourite pub that I enjoyed going to.
Yes it is unfortunately.

We played Brechin in a cup replay on a Monday night after the big freeze, in 2011 I think. It was the first game we had played for weeks.
However, have we ever been the only senior game to be played in the UK?

For a Monday night live on TV that is a superb effort.

Nothing like a record breaking skelping in Europe to drum up customers for a new Ranjurz shop.
I was out walking in Tarbert this afternoon and bumped into a well known Sevco fan. We were talking about his English team (Swindon Town) which is definitely true as he has the tattoos to prove it, but rather mysteriously he now claims his "big team" is Leeds United.
Reminds me of 2012 when all the local lads suddenly started wearing Arsenal, Man United and Liverpool tops for a few years and the pub bantz was strictly limited to the EPL. Can't think why.

Back home seeing the old dear and despite not normally watching football on TV she told me she stumbled upon then watched the whole of Friday's game and reckoned Lee Bullen is a "very nice man".
Mums knows best

You wouldnt be telling me porkies....would you?
No - I'd much rather have a decent away support: ScotRail services to be slashed despite RMT strike cancellation - BBC News

No the trains are still off tomorrow.

Unfortunately its apparently too late to bring back services on Saturday so there are no trains tomorrow down to Ayr.

I really like Ayr United They remind me so much of ourselves, Brilliant fans, Beautiful old school fashioned traditional ground and a superb away day, There fans again were brilliant today and me and my young daughter couldn’t stop laughing at them all in fancy dress, You lot always bring through a great healthy crowd and atmosphere and enjoy your day, Always has been great mutual respect between the clubs especially last season when there fans showered us in so much compliments so it’s great to see themselves doing brilliant this season, All the best for the rest of the season guys
Onto the game I honestly didn’t feel we deserved to lose as we played well and looked pretty comfortable and it certainly had a draw written all over it until the daft penalty, Just shows you how crazy this league is when again there is nothing really much between the teams, Our striker issue though continues to haunt us, We can be as creative and energetic as we like but without somebody to put it in the net we are always going to struggle unfortunately and sadly it’s such a far cry from last season when we were scoring for fun ️
Arbroath lads in the pub after the game buying us jagerbombs and having a right carry on with us, superb. There's definitely a mutual respect based on what you did trying to catch Killie last season and what we are doing recently.

This popped up, no doubt because I had sat through the Somerset Boab video. Not seen this before but some of the drone footage of the old girl is fantastic. Apologies if its been shared before.
