    Would like to see the keeper get the initial shot away to a less dangerous area if he can't hold it at the first goal. Defending at the second goal is a horror show. Besides that it looked like we handled them much better than the most recent games between the sides. 

    First goal the ball comes through a ruck of players and the keeper  sees it late giving him very little time to react...in my opinion he did well to keep out the initial shot and cannot be blamed.

  2. Maybe there is more in the Fletcher rumour than there is in the Mulgrew rumour. Bullen will know Fletcher through their Sheffield Wednesday connection... McGeady also had a spell at Wednesday...sill think it is highly unlikely due to wage demands but if Kyle Lafferty can sign for Johnstone Burgh who, I think, are in the same league as Whitletts Vics...you never know

    Adeloye is going to chuck our defence about at some point this season, unfortunately. Let’s hope it’s just the once!

    I doubt it..even if he does we now have goals in the team from areas that didn't happen previously..I can see McGeady and Murphy getting their fair share and I have feeling Rose and Armatey will contribute a few each...Previous two seasons we have been dependant on Dipo and Tomi

    I got started listening to West Sound'd coverage on Saturday afternoons following a stay in the County hospital to get my appendix out.
    Hadn't really paid much attention to local football outside of Ayr, but that afternoon hearing updates from teams I'd never heard of like Craigmark Burtonians helped pass a crap afternoon.  Shame indeed it stopped, to be replaced by soul-less corporate stuff.

    My old team..it's actually Craigmark Bruntonians😊

    The fact he’s been dropped should be raising question marks. The instagram thing still hasn’t been explained 

    I reckon Bullen has told him it straight after that miss against Morton. Needs to earn his spot.

    Lee Bullen said in one of his interviews that hard work on the pitch is not negotiable...could be the reason he finds himself on the bench.

    Think he only appeared on the bench in the last game at Morton the season Mitchell was here, although he may have trained with him.

    Certainly was in the same youth team as Aaron Connolly at Ayr. Although from what we know about Tiffoney, the impact his behaviour could have on others doesn't seem to register with him.

    This may bring a smile to a few faces..Jackson Longridge at 16 years old gave, a couple of years older, Tiffoney a bleaching at Somerset Park one afternoon for being a smart arse. From that day on Jackson was my hero...

    You’d think we were playing the season out with nothing at stake looking at that team. Let’s hope enough of the unproven players turn up today or this could be a sore one. Time for a few to step up as don’t fancy heading to Arbroath next week needing a result  with a team like that

    Are you suggesting we persevere with Walsh and Chalmers, whom have played throughout our run of bad form..furthermore, we are without Moffat and Todd through injury. Would would your preferred line up be.

    Aye, in terms of ability, but in terms of being hated by a section of the support for being lazy or a coward, they were the same

    You don't play around 600 games for   professional clubs if you are lazy and a coward .  never saw him as that when he played for Ayr.  His real problem was he lacked pace...he was an excellent footballer...if he had half decent pace he would have played all his football in the Premier League..to compare him to Chris Aitken is ludicrous..as someone mentioned earlier Sherrin was on a different planet from Aitken.

    One possible problem might be that tier 4 restrictions will still be in place, so presumably that means we won’t be able to stay in a hotel overnight (assuming we have the money for that).  Would leave us with a horrendous round trip on the day.  5 hours?

    Driving time will be about 4 hours from Ayr..it's slightly further than a trip to play Ross County..I don't see travel as a problem but I do see this as a difficult tie.

    You have to remember though in the 00s we watched numerous jobbers appear from the Juniors. Yes you've named some great examples of where it goes well but, there is nothing elitist about going on past experience. For every Moffat there is a squad of has beens and never weres. 

    My point is that it would be remiss of management to ignore the lower leagues and to do so would without any shadow of a doubt be elitist....just like your post. You are aware that our team, whilst flying high in the Championship, recently exited the Scottish Cup from a team who play in the lower leagues.

    On paper that’s a very competent starting 11 
    I think any signings coming in before January will be players who are capable of playing in defence and midfield , 
    Budget must be almost spent now looking at the signings so far , a number of very decent ex pros and top level juniors now available due to some big teams pulling out leagues this season , is there maybe someone we can get from there to cover the bench and be capable of changing a game 

    Are you hinting that we're signing someone free the juniors?

    You are sounding like a big time Charlie elitist with your comments..it would be remiss of management not to keep an eye on the juniors..a couple of examples why...Michael  Moffat...Ross Stewart (currently getting good reviews with his displays at Ross County) played with Ardeer and Kilwinning Rangers for three years before going into the professional ranks..I'm sure there are others.

    I thought it looked like Paton was in the photo posted from training this morning. Would have played with Kerr at both Aberdeen and QoS and can cover a few positions but don't see him as a starter so a 2 year deal would seem generous. 

    Was the next signing being a player with pedigree actually a direct quote from Kerr or just something someone said on here?

    I thought Paul Paton had signed for East Kilbride.

    Dundee United haven't announced that he's even been released yet so would be strange if he's signed a contract for us yesterday and united haven't even made it public that he has left, not convinced it's him but who knows. Kerrso likes to keep us guessing

    Think the guy who has signed is most likely a free agent otherwise his departing club would be making an announcement...difficult to keep moves quiet when there are two clubs involved.

    Based on that it would be an immediate no thanks from me.  

    Poor boy after one game he is written off my the supporters of Ayr United...think we are getting above our station....last month didn't the Barcelona goalie concede 8 and he has got 24 caps for Germany...he can't be too bad..he cost Barca 12 million Euros...we have to trust the judgement of our manager who has two goalies training with us and I'm pretty sure that was not the case for Ruddy...I believe he signed on loan without being seen by anyone at Ayr...
