    Albinson's goalkeeping in both goals looks pretty dreadful from this angle, Murphy's goal still a humdinger...:

     

     

    Wish I felt the positivity other people felt after yesterday. I know we played well but to come away with nothing due to two horrific pieces of goalkeeping like that could come back to haunt us. Brutal.

    Think it's an excellent point about the street-facing wall of the Somerset Road End. I don't see those in houses across the road making any objections if we were to get that painted in black and white panels. Surely anything is better than grey stone?

    Would perhaps be a worthwhile exercise to contact the Council's Employability & Skills Team and see if we can get a project set up with them for young people with an interest in painting and decorating to come along and paint that wall. Mutually beneficial to all concerned and it would certainly be an improvement. 

    Would also like to see the back wall of the SRE inside decorated with flags on a permanent basis similar to what Burton Albion and Partick Thistle have (below)

    Basically make the place black and white as f**k.

    Been discused before on here I'm sure but Burton Albion's ground is the ideal blueprint. Great facilities that you would expect in a new stadium, with terracing incorporated for atmosphere and matchday experience.

    Opening game of the BL2 season last night between VfB Stuttgart & H96 who were both relegated last season. Bit of a twee ‚opening ceremony‘ prior to kick-off.

     

    Just over 1400 H96 fans made the 650 mile round trip, prior to k/o was still a sultry 33°C!

    H96 with the better chances in the 1st 15 minutes, but some god awful defending allowed Mario Gomez to make it 1-0. Didavi made it 2-0 shortly thereafter courtesy of a good free-kick combined with Zieler‘s trademark poor positioning. H96 given a life-line almost immediately, with Awoudja somehow contriving to get the ball into his own net.

    During the break the heavens opened up with torrential rain plus hail coming down.

    Not the best of starts for Mirko Slomka on his return, and with a tricky set of games against Hamburg, Nürnberg & Kiel coming up over the next 5 weeks then need to avoid having to play continual catch-up.

     

    Next up home to Jahn Regensburg on Saturday.

    Is it an optical illusion, or was the torrent of water falling from the roof on that last picture landing straight on top of some of the home fans?

    Horrific opinion.

     

    Wasn't even the best Brazilian of the mid-late 2000s never mind the best player ever.

    I mean, it's debatable, but hardly a horrific opinion. I would say that Ronaldinho was the best Brazilian player of the mid 2000's, having taken over from Ronaldo in around 2003-04 and then being overtaken by Kaka in around 2008. There are things that Ronaldinho could do with a ball that none of those named above could ever do.

    We may not be a finished team but half those Rangers players were boys. Getting hounded 6-1 is a bit of a sare yin.

    Yep just like Talbot in the cup was a sare yin for u so this is not your year

    I see Auchinleck's communal potato has managed to pick up an Internet signal.  Thanks for your intelligent input. Tatty bye then.

    Sure a pumping by the Rangers rejects will do the morale a lot of good ahead of the professional season starting on Saturday emoji23.png.

    On a more serious note it's not the worst considering we're not a finished team and the Rangers team had players who were in the first team the last couple of years.

    We may not be a finished team but half those Rangers players were boys. Getting hounded 6-1 is a bit of a sare yin.

    Steady Callum son . I know but they’re still a bigger club . Check out their history . Then have a look at their fan base, ground , ex-players and internationalists etc and honours . Just saying i think they’re a bigger club . Only my opinion , doesn’t make me an uneducated troll .

    It does make you a tiresome jobby though

  8. The last player to go from Ayr to Sunderland was Dick Malone, who ended up winning the FA Cup with The Mackems in 1973. A repeat of that would be tremendous, would feel like a proud Dad.

    Totally agree with Callum about Robbie Crawford. if he is holding out for another offer and using Ayr as some kind of backup option, then the offer should be wiped from the table after a certain period of time. If we're looking to progress as a club, we should be aiming to be more than just a safety net for players that believe they can do better.

  9. The pressure was being ramped up on the defence because we were no longer keeping the ball. Lumping hopeless balls up to Shankland and hoping he made something of nothing did not work, and as a result the ball came straight back far quicker than it had done before. The noticeable change in playing style was to blame both for our mid-late season defensive fragility and our lack of threat up top. Quite why it changed so dramatically remains an absolute mystery to me.

    Got nothing against Rose and wish him the best at Coventry, but he only really came on to a game when Bell arrived.  Think it was just having the benefit of an old hand next to him organising the defence that helped.  As a partnership, Rose and Higgins was as poor as anything we’ve had in recent years.  

    Harsh given that, not too long ago, we lined up with Darren Brownlie and Marc Twaddle at CB.
