Mums knows best I've met him and he is a nice man. Your mum is right. My mum has zero interest in football but messaged me asking who "the big man" who plays for Ayr United is. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might even manage to drag my dad to a match at some point. Think the last time he was at Somerset was the 70s. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was watching Fridays game with my dad (who supports Dumbarton) and he was in awe of Dipo. A few times he was like "fucking hell, he's good". He wants to go to the Dundee game with me in December. He doesn't like standing at games though. I got him a ticket for the Somerset Road End a few years ago and he left after about twenty minutes because standing was hurting his back.

Hibs got £1M for Cummings, although that was in the summer after winning the league. Falkirk also somehow swindled £1M out of Norwich for Conor McGrandles, albeit that was including add-ons. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
callum-ayr Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 Football transfers now are all down to what the player is worth to the club rather than what he is actually worth in the market, you see it with the likes of Maguire etc down south. Akinyemi being here till the end of the season and potentially firing us up is worth a minimum 1.7 million in prize money this year (winning the league) and next year (12th worst case scenario). So, in my view it takes a 7-figure sum for him in January, which will never happen unless someone from the top end of L1 or the English Championship fancy taking a punt. The figure falls dramatically if we don't go up and he's left with 12 months on his contract. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rb123! Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 (edited) See Somerset is hosting Scotland U19 European Qualifiers on Sat 19th & Tues 22nd November.

Yeah I just noticed that the other day. Havent heard any news on "ticket" details. It's all very low key. I'll probably go along to both as I quite enjoy Somerset being held for internationals. Pitch should be alright as long as it doesnt piss down 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

diegomarahenry Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 (edited) So in summary, Dipo is the thinking (or drinking) man and womans crumpet in Ayrshire ? Rather than schools, they should have him tour Elliots and Ayr races and give free tickets away.

Turnstiles open an hour before KO but I imagine they'll only open the main stand. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roxanne's man Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 First time I've been down Ayr Town centre in roughly 6 months. Place is in a sorry state However, I saw something that caused me to lose my shit, so to speak. Why, after it failing in Ayr before, are they opening 'The Rangers Store'???? It's shite like this that ruins local football teams. I've always backed my local team (I now reside in Troon and I occasionally appear at Portland park for the banter, whenever there's not a game on at Somerset.) Ayr town isn't even half as good as what it used to be but to be throwing up a Shop, for a football team located 30 miles away, to appease the local glory seekers has pissed me off! If we finally get promoted, I'm certain they'll turn up at Somerset, pretending they were Ayr fans the whole time. The Rangers shop failed before next to The Forum, back before the Sevco resurrection and when the forum had a physical presence With the brilliant position Ayr United are in now and how fantastic Cameron's and Club Shop are, under David Smith who has poured his heart and soul into the team, surely I'm not the only Ayr fan who is annoyed at this? I understand 'Bigger team' but ffs 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
