    Mathie will quite rightly get most of the criticism for the footballing side of things however Smith isn’t exempt. At the end of the day he is Mathie boss and is paying his wages. If he isn’t happy with his performance he should be addressing this.

    There is no doubt Smiths construction work off the park has been great and has pushed the club forward in that respect. There has been non Ayr United fans asking about the hub and the new stand. However he has proven himself to be quite thin skinned (Cammy Smith situation & Itzdrk getting Dmed after being critical of club). It seems there is a narrative at the club atm whereby if you criticise the club on any level you’re against them. That’s a culture that’s been created by Mathie and Smith and really needs changed. Mathie has been at Hibs and you’d think he’d be use to criticism on a bigger scale than what’s ever been received at Ayr United.

    ALL the focus needs to be placed on survival in this league this season.

    Without that, just look at the dogs dinner that has been Falkirk - absolutely everything set up for a quick return, and what is it now - year 5?

    Relegation would be a disaster for us and set everything back years.

    We need a saviour, we can worry about visionary at a later date.

    We are in a runaway train to the seaside leagues at present.

    Sorry to intrude...

    You seem to be stuck between a rock and a hard place:

    An experienced manager type will want his cronies as part of his backroom staff and first and last refusal on transfers - usually a good few.

     

    An inexperienced coach will be more likely to agree to work in your system, but probanly won't have the experience of digging you out of your situation, and may not have the skills to work with your player type.

     

    Also, without being (too) cheeky, you seem to take a LOT of what you're told by the club as gospel. Could it be that Bullen was simply following the company line with regards to assistance and transfer policy, and that's why they were so keen to keep him? It does seem as though your hitting brick walls, which could be due to the owner not budging in his ideas - he might be happy to take the hit of relegation if it means sticking to his principles and 'philosophy'.

    Anyway, good luck, hope you get something sorted soon - love popping down on the train for a good all-day session (and 3 points)!

    I think they want a yes man to rub smith and mathies massive egos

    Any managers with experience (Bowyer, McCall etc) will want to control signing players something that I just don’t see happening with Mathie and Glendinning around Bullen at the end of the day was a first team coach and that’s exactly what we are probably trying to get Scott Brown might honestly be the best option par that your probably looking at a Darren O’Dea esq type 

    Sack mathie and glendinning
