Aye, the Morton game at Somerset has all the makings of a slobberknocker. They were clinical as they swatted away ICT last night and they are going on a fine run. Baird was looking like a changed player. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trogdor Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 Will Reading start today? Big big question. I prefer Frankie in the middle but we have been far too exposed down the left. I can make a case for either or. We need to keep wee Linn quiet today, he seems to be going through something of a renaissance. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thumper Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 Just saw last night's result. This league is fucking bananas. Nobody seems to be able to defend for shit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UpInTheAyr Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 Could be quite the race for 4th this season, assuming the league evens out at some point. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iain Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 It would be good to see two or three clubs get detached at the bottom, so today's game could be important in that regard. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roxanne's man Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 Could I ask why Somerset park is called Somerset park? Where did the name come from? Anyone know? (Won't ask the same question about Arbroath's ground in case I upset people.) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edinburghhonestman Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 Before the season started most of us would have been happy to be three points clear of Morton at this stage but who'd have thought we'd have been the top two.

Honest_Man#1 Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 This team has me at full mast. Have to say like many others I am completely full of humble pie at the rate I’m having to wolf it down. Was incredibly worried at the end of last season and especially after the horrendous league cup campaign and thought Bullen wasn’t up to it, but being well put in my place and delighted about it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

diegomarahenry Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 Even is we were 30 points clear with 10 games to go, I'd still think we'd manage to f**k it up so I'm not going to get carried away. The way the league is going, we could lose the next two games and still be in the top 3, a couple of points off top. Looking at the next few weeks, Morton at home while thistle play Dundee, an Ayr win could put us six points ahead of thistle, seven above Dundee. A defeat of under 6 goals to Morton and we would still be top. The following week we are away to Hamilton on the Friday night, Inverness play Queens Park and Morton play Thistle. If we win the next two games and the other teams cut each others throats, we could have a decent gap. We won't of course with the way the league is going, we'll lose to Morton and draw with Hamilton. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Morton beat us 3-0 they’d go above us on goal difference but hopefully that won’t happen! Ah love this feeling on a Saturday late afternoon. Time for a few beers boys and girls. Have a good night, I’m going too 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUcal Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 Some performance again. A lot of grit and character in that one. Jayden, take a bow. Thought we were excellent defensively. Musonda, Kirk and McGinty won everything they had too. Super stuff. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ayrunitedfw Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 Couldn’t make it up today, watched it on a dodgy stream with a dodgy camera so no idea how we actually played. Couldn’t care less though given the result This group of players and coaching staff are really likeable and one we can get behind. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UpInTheAyr Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 Actually a more impressive result than Tuesday. The ability to grind out a win with games like that is something we have been missing and will count a lot to our final league position. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jazzar Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 The comparison with this time last year is fuckin mental. Bullen deserves shit loads of credit as do the backroom staff (signings, fitness etc). Not getting carried away, just loving the feeling, especially when it co-incides with them getting beat. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd expect things to even out at some point but as long as we can stay in the mix over winter then it lays the groundwork. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
