He’s got loads of energy which is why I’d play him in midfield but I’m not sure he’s good enough to play as an out an out full back or winger. He’d be quite handy doing what Geggan did for us on the right hand side when we were in the Championship. I like him though. I like him too but not sure what his best position is to be honest. His final decision whether to pass or shoot can be wrong but I can forgive that as he gets into the right positions. He does need to be a bit stronger though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have him and Daire starting on the flanks every week, we could murder teams! He looked well short of fitness to me when he come on yesterday as was struggling and blowing after only a few minutes, however he did appear to grow into the game once up to speed. Maybe he's had covid ? but I'm pretty sure he wouldn't have lasted anything like 90 mins if had been on from the start. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shibuya Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 I suspect he had Covid as he was certainly one of the players to miss out for a while. I agree he took quarter of an hour to come into the game but after that he was excellent. He should be starting every week! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trogdor Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 Our attendance seems to be low at the minute. Does anyone know how many home streamers we have? I'm wondering if some folk are opting to stay in the house rather than rock up to Somerset? Otherwise 1300 odd home fans seems a bit low. I know we're not playing swashbuckling football but equally it's not brutal hoof/hoppy ball anymore. I expect it'll be more when we play the DKBs on the 26th October (just noticed it's a Tuesday night, why?). We need to try and retain some of those who come out for the derby. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terracing feels a lot busier than 1300. Unless 18 months of social distancing has changed my perception of what Is “busy”! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roxanne's man Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 (edited) I'm annoyed at this report of racist abuse aimed at the Morton team. I didn't hear it myself though it definitely could be viewed as racist. It's a game at the end of the day, players have lives and family's outside of the stadium. It's just not on, especially in today's society. 'Shower of Monkeys' is also wrong. It's 'Barrel of Monkeys'. If your going to be shouting ignorant and pathetic racist abuse, at least get the collective noun correct, ya p*ick! Ayr should definitely start handing out Bans over nonsense like this.

Thereisalight.. Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 Calling a team with one black player a shower of monkeys shows to me that it wasnt meant as a racist term. I'd class it as the same as a shower of c***s, shower of shite etc rather than anything more malice. Seems there is always somebody perma offended by anything. We'd look incredibly stupid having a supporter using a racist term when we have 2 black players, one of whom was playing yesterday -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Total " some of my best players are black" nonsense. All depends on the context of it. Shower of monkeys if that's what's been said could have been at best an innocently intended but very unfortunate choice of words but equally if it was shouted at a point of the game where it was clearly in response to Ugwu's actions on the pitch then that's a completely different story. A full investigation should be conducted by the club and the person punished harshly if found to be guilty. Easy to pile on a club who has a fan accused of this but could have quite as easily been a moron in any stadium in the country. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anybody thinking racism on hearing the word monkey used in this context shows themself to be racist. I call my cousins weans cheeky monkeys, does that make me racist?

World has gone fcking mad If you think that someone needs to have a logically consistent reason to make a racist remark then you're either a fuckwit or an apologist. Given your previous form on other threads I'd put you in the former camp, but you're sure digging a fucking enormous hole for yourself. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUcal Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 Anyone have "offended by anything" or "world gone mad" on their bingo card? Waiting on a "snowflake". Hope this is investigated properly 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THEHonestman1910 Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 I mean tbh with you, I think the bloke who done it was referring to the whole team by saying monkey's instead of monkey. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D'Jaffo Posted September 26, 2021 Author Share Posted September 26, 2021 I don’t think someone who would spout racist nonsense, would really be someone who thinks all that logically tbh and simply saying “well actually a shower would imply it’s more than one person” is nonsense and you can f**k off if you think it’s a valid excuse. Find the guy and ban him. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trogdor Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 This incident needs to be investigated and the facts established. If what has been quoted was said then a lifetime ban is in order. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
