Johnny Martins Willy Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 He should do well at Ayr United but their season is over already and they will not finish in a promotion play-off position which is a huge fail for a full-time club. If McCall can build a team to survive this season while building for the next year he'll be a good appointment and Ayr could compete with Dunfermline and Morton next season for the top 4.

Rob1885 Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Good appointment, would have liked to have seen him at East End. I'd expect Ayr to start climbing the table. Another rival for that final play off spot it seems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ecocme Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Any news on the length of his contract? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diegomarahenry Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Looking at the table, a run of 4 wins would put us back in the hunt for a play-off place But the squad looks unlikely to win 4 games before the end of the season in total, not expecting miracles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highlandmagyar Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Wouldn't surprise me if he took a couple of our youngsters on loan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mediocre Pundit Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Interesting. I'm not convinced he'll make it with us but hasn't been too bad when he's been played and is still young. Was ok against United and we may rely on him over the next few weeks with our injuries and lack of a left back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poet of the Macabre Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 As long as he's doing better in his personal life then I'm pretty convinced this will be a good appointment for Ayr. Certainly a big improvement on Roberts and I'd now be stunned if Ayr were even close to the bottom two come the end of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1 John Lambie Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 If Dale Keenan is the standard then we would be better putting some ball boys on Surprised at that, he has only played for us 3/4 times this season but he's looked solid enough on each occassion. Certainly no worse than Jake Carroll who we had on loan from Huddersfield. He struggled during the 1st 15mins against Dundee Utd with Mackay-Steven running him ragged but after that he was a danger going forward & controlled any attacks down his side well. I'm not sure we'll keep him beyond this season but I see no reason why he couldn't play for a Championship club, based on the limited games he has played for us. Happy to see McCall back in management, he's been a regular at Firhill over the past 3 seasons for Radio Clyde. If it wasn't for him I'm not sure where we would be just now, he's limited but he set the foundations & formed the basis of a really good team with us (he didn't get the chance to see it through with players being sold) but I'll always be thankful for the job he did with us. Plucking Chris Erskine & Kris Doolan from the juniors was outstanding business also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

young buck Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 I'm happy with the appointment but he can't turn water into wine. This season is a write off and if we climb the table great but expectations for this season should not be high. He will need to see what he's got then see who he can get to replace them. That takes time. please give him it before shouting weegie p***k *** junkie etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawk89 Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 Hopefully he's given a fresh slate and i'd take 7th now. Next season is when he should start being judged once he builds his own squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aldo Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 Yeah, the more I read and reflect on this appointment, the more I become more into it. It's somehow a relatively exciting appointment actually. Experience should hopefully see us safe this year and then he should hopefully build an exciting team for next year.
