Just out of pure relief. then back to being cynical For appointing a dud, letting him sign an imbalanced squad of duds (several of the same duds that failed in this league the year before) then reluctantly accepting his resignation? He's surely still due a hounding. 1 minute ago, No_Problemo said: It’s really hard to comprehend how someone that has played at the level of football he has, to set up the way he does - both in terms of tactics and personnel. Played at the level of football he has AS A MIDFIELDER as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of excellent footballers make useless, clueless managers who act nothing like they did as players. The absolute basics still shine through in both though, don’t fill a team with defenders etc etc. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roxanne's man Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 I think whoever is appointed is already an improvement. I need to quiz whether Afolabi will disappear now the manager has resigned. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d expect (and fucking hope) he wouldn’t play however you’ll have McAdams, Fjortoft, Murdoch, Salkeld or Jim Duffy to pick from. ETA: I’ll miss the digs at Hopkin on the JIC podcast.

Iain Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 If there's going to be a permanent appointment you'd think they might want them in before the loan window closes. When is that? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was a good leader on the field for Ayr. This Ayr team has two decent keepers , so he has no need to sign Ryan Stevenson. Yogi has my vote Really? I would argue the complete opposite. Mind at Raith when he claimed society and social media were really to blame as he lead them to relegation despite the club looking relatively safe when he came in at the turn of the year. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CALDERON Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 Re Hughes, I always come back to the same analogy. Locke left a slowly sinking ship, and Hughes slammed it head on into a fucking iceberg. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thumper Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 I think it's fair to say that Hughes's managerial career has been erratic, and maybe "erratic" is not what Ayr need right now, but "consistently eye-bleedingly terrible" is worse than "erratic". And once again, it's Duffy's job. He was brought in as insurance and the policy form has been filled in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
