Kaboom. I was about to mention the exact same thing. Kerr frantically pacing up and down his office. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm addressing the suggestion Dumfries is 2.5 hours away on a bus when it clearly isn't. If people want to go at that time that's fine, they clearly don't need to though. 1hr 45 is on the high side but bus companies will always do that so fair enough. 1hr 45 mins and an extra 20 mins to get your tickets still means 5pm though. And I stated the first part because it's a completely needless extra half hour. If you only meant to say 4:45 you'd only have said 4:45. Obviously I'm going to address the extreme part of the suggestion not the more reasonable end of it. Look, it's a pain for all of us, It's going to cost us a crowd for one of our bigger away supports, it's going to cost you support on the night. Nobody likes the 7:05pm kick off. It's a ground you've a bad record at and it's on tv. I don't blame any Ayr fan who chooses to watch it at home. I'm just saying it's a nonsense to suggest a bus NEEDS to leave Ayr at 4:30 to be in time for the game. The times are just a polite excuse of saying that nobody wants to go to Dumfries, period. Cheers. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
callum-ayr Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 Getting from the ship inn to the holmston roundabout on a rush hour Friday can probably take 20/30 minutes, possibly more if the Holmston Road is queued all the way back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please dont engage him in any more discussion on how long it takes a bus to get from Ayr to Dumfries. My eyes are bleeding... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dumfries is a 200 mile round trip for me and with it being a Friday night and crap kick off time I'll no be going. What's wrong with chips? If the main stand snack bar did chips we’d be delighted 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glen Michael used to show it on cavalcade and it was also on in Saturday Mornings I think, but I'm sure it was around the mid 80's ?? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I seem to remember he was signed on TV in a kind of Blue Peter type / kids programme, perhaps with a club director in attendance at the time?

There was a programme in the 90s with a young actor who supported Ayr. No idea what it was called though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
