No_Problemo Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Yeah, most likely. I’ve done my mourning Sunday-Thursday so my attention is on Wednesday now. I just feel after attending those 35 games this season which has been so exhausting emotionally and seeing how much better than the rest we have been when we are at full strength, the thought of another season in this league depresses me to f**k. To get through these 4 play off games is going to be so tough, I just hope to Christ we can somehow pull it off. Lawrence Shankland is the reason we can pull it off. He’ll come back flying I would imagine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope you’re right mate. Like everyone else, I got caught up in the “he’s a miss but look how we did before him this season and the goals, we’ll be fine” way of thinking. Problem is we forgot how to play without him and continued the same formation and style which is suited to him but doesn’t work in the slightest for Moore and Moffat. He’s such a special player, he plays like someone of 28-30. The runs he makes, the way he holds up the ball, the way he holds off defenders, backs into them, turns them, his link up and of course his goal scoring. He does things you can’t really teach, his footballing brain is a cut above most in that league. I didn’t realise just how much we would miss him after that red. No doubt he gives us a fighting chance but it’s the full back positions that have fucked us so often this season when Geggan and Boyle haven’t played, more specifically Boyle. He’s not perfect and has lost his pace but man do we miss him when he’s not there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rb123! Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 This is the weirdest feeling I've ever had before an Ayr. A toxic combination of excitement and nerves which could be shattered in a second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rb123! Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 How many people do we think will be at the game, I've no idea. 3,000 too hopeful, if last week hadn't gone the way it had we'd probably be looking at 4,000 today but that won't happen.

AUFC 1910 Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 It's a mindfuck of not wanting any more hurt combined with 'if' we won it would you want to miss it. There could be 2,500 there, with 1,500 waiting outside just in case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s been enough suffering and I do know it’s over and I have finally made peace with it so why is this happening? Pissing me off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
