Trogdor Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 I am not pinning for any football. I'm looking forward to the break. My interest will perk up again once we start signing some new players. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lochwood Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Well we got there a good performance with everyone showing great desire to get the result which shows they want to be at Ayr, but would keep only a few. Bullen saying no major surgery needed and maybe 3/4 players coming in, we’ll they better be better than what’s there we will need it or it will be same same next year. Muirhead to Queens I don’t think so we were paying a couple of hundred more than them this year think it will be even less they are paying next year. Young Smith had a very good game and reminds me of a young Murdoch and along with Hewitt will push for s start next year so all bodes well there. Fridays crowd shows there is a good fan base a lot of them young which bodes well for the future surely a bit of money being thrown at it and a wee bit of luck could carry the club up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richey Edwards Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 I have just had the horrible realisation that I am older than all the Ayr United players apart from Moffat. When did this happen? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rb123! Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Apart from the actual result i'm amazed at the crowd last night. Shows the potential is there for more and being tapped into when required. Seemed to be a lot of young kids there, most i think i've ever seen at an Ayr game. Club have to bounce on that going into next season, i'd probably say for the first time since McCall left there seemed a collective sense of togetherness at Somerset last night which i'd forgotten how that felt. Last 3 years has been arguments on the terrace about which players more shite!! Think we may have another year of good season ticket sales, hope i'm right! 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I took my nephew to the game - this has been his first season as an Ayr fan. Hopefully he's hooked now, because he was absolutely buzzing and was straight onto the park when the final whistle went. He kept asking me questions about Ayr United during the whole drive down to Ayr - especially the promotion season. I told him he was lucky to see us win a derby in his first season, because I had to wait nearly 17 years to see us win one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mauchline has a significant amount of Killie fans though, but is still mostly Sevco. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lochwood Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 The Carlisle scout/analyst was beside me in the stand and he liked Adeloye and Reading, he knew him from his Middlesbrough days and they are paying considerably more than Ayr as he confirmed what Reading was on, so we’ll have to say if that goes anywhere. He also asked how Mcginty had been for us I said a disaster walking in the first half of the season but fair to him he’s had a very good second half season 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otis Blue Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Thing is, most towns are littered with OF types. Something tells me that former Queens player Paul Burns from Cumnock was a Sellick fan (could be wrong mind), and Billy Dodds another Cumnock boy was of the Govan persuasion. Supporting our local clubs isn't that common north of the border sadly, and for reasons that are all too depressing of course. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, this is the sad reality in Scotland, and the primary reason why two teams dominate at the expense of everyone else. Even the Moff, considered a legend by Ayr fans on here, is a local boy who is a Celtic fan from a family of Celtic fans and who as far as I know had no interest in supporting his local team growing up. Far easier to follow the crowd and fit in by supporting whichever half of the OF your heritage leans towards. Fans who choose to support their local teams do not get the respect they deserve. I grew up in Ayr and remember being ridiculed at school for supporting a crap team like Ayr instead of Rangers or whoever was top of the English league. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toepoker Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 Apparently Mhairi Black supports Partick Thistle and was at Somerset Park to watch the match on Friday night.
