He asked Jimmy Nicholl and also Frank Connor (I think) but both although interested sadly had to decline due to other commitments. NI in the case of Nicholl and family in the case of Connor (incidentally, I think he just passed away if the same guy). I'm sure that he said that they had already identified a couple of other targets but that they wouldn't be available until the Summer, but it definitely seems like an old head that Bullen is after. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually was he not our assistant when Dalziel was here ? or am I just imagining that ?? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whenever things started to go wrong he replaced his sidekick. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 How are we expecting Ecrepont to do this year ? I saw him at Wrexham a couple of years ago and thought he'd have a decent career ahead of him, however he's never broken through and not sure how he did at Albion Rovers when loaned out. I was always hoping we'd give him a chance as there definitely looked a player in there from the little I've seen of him and he always seems to have been highly rated, but just a surprise that he's not made that breakthrough. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully Bullen sees something there and gives him a chance. At one point he was probably expected to step into the left back slot when Harvie left. Reading signing didn't help and not sure the whole situation was thought through. Definitely needs to start playing so best to sort a loan move if the first team chances are limited 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like to think he'll get some time in the league cup games, even playing Reading further forward. If he's not going to be second choice then he would be better going out on loan. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shibuya Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 I don't think we will see much of Ecrepont in an Ayr shirt next season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superhursty7 Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 I think both Paddy and Maxwell will have to not come back for Finn to get a chance maybe best to loan him out until new year as he needs games at this stage. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trogdor Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 Similarly, I thought Ecrepont looked good away to Wrexham. Strangely, I don't think I've seen him play since. He really needs games and I would agree that loaning him out may be the best bet for him and the club. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superhursty7 Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 What does it say? To me him saying sad to see him leave means he will still be there next season, if he was off as well he wouldn't be there to see him, then again I could be putting 2 and 2 together and getting 5 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roxanne's man Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 Was looking at potential signings for the season coming, wetting my knickers over players coming to Ayr that probably won't ever materialise. (I was over the moon when Chalmers signed, how wrong I was f*cking Charlatan, enjoy league one.) What's the chances of us getting lumbered with Leigh Griffiths? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[emoji51]I think in all likelihood most of us will never have heard of our new signings, Glendinning will have likely been looking down south or further afield with the international licence we have, can't see us signing many folk from the the Scottish leagues. Hopefully there is a few unpolished diamonds out there 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get the feeling Griffiths is done in the top 4 tiers, could genuinely see him turning up at that mess Broomhill have been turning into over the past few years. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
