Bairnardo Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 Aye, hope he does well. Put in a real fucking effort to keep us up when that was lacking from several others. And nearly managed it. Hes one of those guys that it's hard to put your finger on what attritube it is that makes him successful. Not the fastest, not the best touch, decent but not great in the air.... But he does a shed load of work. Never stops running and hassling, and most importantly has the knack you cant teach of just being in the right place. He scored so many scrappy type of goals for us where he was just there, where no defender had thought to be. It happened often enough that it cant be luck. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has the advantage of not being Kenny "point and shout" Miller so thats a start 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kenny has still managed 11. Not helped playing behind Jones the last few games. Anyway, hopefully he can get on the end of a few chances going forward. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether we like it or not he's been our best option up until now. Hopefully Rudden can put away some of the chances Kenny and others have missed going forward. Might even give Miller a wee gee up. Add in Graham as more of an aerial threat and I'm pretty happy with our forward options. MacKinnon could be the missing link in midfield. Could also give the defence some much needed protection too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The league is our “bread and butter” yes he’s our “best” option, but he’s currently a more expensive downgrade on both Doolan and McDonald, but that fault lies with Caldwell and the board for sanctioning it 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doolan I'd disagree with. He's hardly kicked a ball this season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A great shame Doolan hasn't played much at Ayr, but he still managed a goal against us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
