  1. How much influence does Haughey have, is it his way or the highway or is he just the money man and let's be honest if there is nothing in it for Willie he will scuttle it, it's what he does..
  2. Disappointed you never mentioned Simon Murray (I know it's in the past( So f**k Simon Murray ginger diving b*****d
  3. What a weird game, we looked like an average League 1 side again first half, with a poor Queens Park side looking the much better side, Airdrie play better on the front foot with a fast tempo far too often we let games drift away like the first half today, Second Half was more like it, first to the ball, wanting second balls and more importantly having a purpose to score goals, Telfer was again outstanding, Hancock his usual solid shift, Todorov has scored in this league before, he isn't pleasant on the eye, but caused the queen's defence numerous problems, took his deserved goal well and a very important 3 points looking at the scores again today. Big question was Gallagher injured or just yanked at half time inorder for the match winner to come on.. Any signing rumours, still think we need 3 players although been saying that every January window for years now..
  4. How are the roads around Hampden, travelling from North of City roads still pretty bad round here, nobody out due to some game on the telly..
  5. Pretty fair assessment, I think McCabe for the first time in his tenure doesn't have any answers, today it looked like hunting an early goal, if we got it, all well and good if not , see out the game, we weren't far away at the cup tie at Cappielow, we didn't need tinkering it was working, but the more we tinker the.bigger the problems it is unveiling and now we are struggling badly.. IMO we need to get back to the quick passing game that has disappeared over the last couple of months and stick with it .. For what it's worth Morton look a stereotypical championship team to me and 7th or 8th place should be gotten with ease I would think....
  6. Good travelling noisy support up from Greenock today, looked round about 4oo ISH, don't know the attendance it was announced but it was muffled on our state of the art pa system..
  7. The crazy thing is McGill would probably be effective on a dominant team, I E like Raith, he offers nothing to a poor patched up League 1 side playing in the championship and again today it showed... To be fair to Todorov what did he have to work with nothing, you took Gallagher and McGill off they had nothing to work with either, McCabe must play midfield, Telfer struggled all game is he fit. ? Frizzell has been found out and the galling thing is he knows it as well, Walking Football was his contribution todqy, and please someone defend McStravick he is miles off it and is just a playing as a lost boy , but to be fair he is not ready for this league like the rest of them.
  8. Never mind the bolloks, did any United fans take up the invite by Goodwin to meet him outside...
  9. Handling ha signed for Brechin city agree good player, Robertson is a wrong un and will probably end up at EK, don't think many clubs will touch him.
  10. Reilly on paper could be decent, he banged them in a bottom League 2 side, asking a lot to score the goals to keep a struggling side in the championship, Innes Murray is a League 1 player as his career has dictated, we sign these players and that is where we will be, don't really know the answers except we need better than we have, not convinced we will get it... Hypothetical question if we were in League 1 with our current squad, where would we be at this stage of the season, I would say a distant third behind Hamilton and Falkirk, scary stuff... On the positive we are in the championship and by hook or crook we must stay there..
  11. Aw FFS, don't get them started, he has found his level thankfully in League 2..
  12. We are asking a lot from Todorov and McGill to an extent, McGill got slated after the Thistle game, his first League game in weeks and gets dropped the next, Todorov comes in against Dunfermline does alright and gets dropped again, We are looking for the silver bullet upfront and not getting it, are we giving it enough of a chance though, how about judging Todorov after 3 starts in a row not after 75 minutes, we aren't scoring just now anyway... Nothing will change unless we change our shape, Rhys knows teams will run through us if he does, you either drop McMaster or someone and play a 2 up front, our midfielders aren't physically strong or quick enough to play that regularly.... Personally don't think who we sign if anybody up front will make a great deal of difference, but we need a lot more productivity and goals from our wide players and Frizzell and Telfer if that clicks and we get ahead in games, our strikers will have more chances late in games.... Nothing is easy in this league, and we are in a battle , next 2 games are must not lose territory IMO
  13. MCgill I agree , he was very effective in the last 2 seasons, Technically a mess, but his reckless direct style seemed to work in League 1, he would probably do a turn for Raith due to their open attacking style.. Todorov is proven he can get goals, he has been unlucky, what do you want him to do in 8minutes or whatever at Ayr, a more positive attacking approach to scoring goals is required and a physical midfield player to give us a different option than the dot to dot safety first passing... O Connor has pace to burn, which we need, but little else, probably League 2 is his level at this moment in time.. Falkirk signed the lad Shanley from troubled Edinburgh, he is a good forward player that was available, hopefully we can get some business done, although recruitment is still a major issue under this regime...
  14. There is a rumour at our end that Gabby McGill will be signing for you guys in m January, personally think it is a lot of pish, I know Murray is a big fan, but to be fair to McGill , our new style doesn't suit his reckless style, but has showed virtually nothing all season probably a league too high for him,
  15. Quite a lot of the time in the January window it is loanees from the Premier as you stated, a lot of these players will be out of our range wage wise, crazy but true.. more than likely it will be players that are not getting a game and want a fresh start that will nbe available, The club and directors know we have got one shot at getting this right, The prize money and gate money in this League is night and day compared to League 1, so hopefully established players get signed for the run in, it will be touch and go whatever happens... Talking of finances it makes the decision to go with a reserve team this season, very strange, no doubt if things go Pete tong, that will get scrapped at season end anyway, maybe in hindsight that could have happened when or if we became a more established championship club ..
  16. What a lot of hypocritical pish, it is ok for you to criticise Telfer and still be far from convinced, but it's not acceptable for anybody else to criticise McMaster. ... Spare me he is only a young lad that needs supported drivel..
  17. Agree far too much was looked into the early season League Cup tournament which appeared to paper over the cracks.. All your points are totally relevant and true....
  18. First time at Somerset on a while, pretty impressive structure going up, what's the plan, 6 rows of seats and increased hospitality, pretty high roof, don't think that will keep the rain off the north terracing.... Hopefully be finished for next time we visit..
  19. Agree with most of this, just listened to the Post match interviews Gallagher spoke well and you can relate to what he was saying and feeling, McCabe comes on and was his usual wishy washy pish ... The whole signing structure and reserve team should be questioned.... There are a lot of moving parts , how much clout does Consilium have , Dunlop and Gavin Gall now signed up as well , as the numerous others, it seems to be a prequisite when players sign for the club now, is Rhys feathering his own nest to the detriment of the team.....
  20. It's a game of inches Frizzell hits the bar with a cracking drive ( looked like it) a minute later goal down, another unmarked player from a corner, remember Partick identical... We had chances but I will be honest we lacked commitment when it mattered, Ayr defenders were willing to go in where it hurts to clear the wall in front of our players, McStravick is a waste of a jersey, he does nothing and is knowhere near ready, Hancock has the ability to play wingback, which means we could maybe play 2 up, McCabe was moaning at Todorov at the end , he was on for 10 minutes max, give the guy a fair chance FFS... Let's not sugarcoat this, we will probably be bottom by new year, we need a new approach, with more commitment we could easily have got something out of the Partick, Dunfermline and today's game
  21. Just about to buy tickets, Airdrie fans have got main stand section and railway end for this game, do Ayr still use the paddock at the front of the stand, remember standing there a few years back, don't expect any more than 250 making the trip for this one.
  22. Are you trying to say he has taken Airdrie as far as he can, 5th place in the Championship. That is probably the clubs ceiling so Yes is the answer to your question..
  23. Big game on Saturday Somerset Park used to be one of the old favourites, hopefully we take a decent following .. Hopefully Rhys doesn't overthink things, which their is a danger he will, we have a League 1 team in the championship beginning to get found out (fair comment) we are putting out pretty forward thinking formations, but these formations are possibly outweighing the abilities of the players... We need a to find a middle ground, for me at Ayr we need a front two, Toddy up top and Gal dropping off, with hopefully Frizz in an attacking role with Telfer and McCqbe around him ( injuries permitting). We chop and change our front players really after every game, we need to give them a run , they won't score on every game no striker does, a one on Three ratio is decent, you don't get that by playing one week and then ride the pine the next.... We need to find a spark again from somewhere.....
