If the cup is won by someone in a European spot I.e Celtic then it gets passed down to the next spot in the league. I'm sure it was Gordon Smith when he was in charge of the SFA. Saw teams like Gretna and QOTS going in to Europe as an embarrassment and a danger to the coefficient so we have had premier league heavyweights thriving in all European competitions ever since. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have totalled three wins over these clubs this season including a 5-0 hammering of Queen's Park. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUFC 1910 Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 Let’s make sure we do the business against Falkirk in the cup, bank the cup cash for next season and build a league winning squad for next year. We can see where this season takes us but I fear it’s just a season or 2 too early. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we do go up this year then brilliant - Bullen will have achieved what many Ayr United managers before him failed to do. If we don't go up then we must ensure that the progress from this season is built upon and that the money from the cup run is used to help us do that. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem is next year is you're potentially looking at a championship of: Ayr Dundee United Kilmarnock Partick Thistle Inverness Dunfermline Falkirk Hamilton Academical Raith Rovers Greenock Morton That's a massively more competitive league than this year with just the highlighted 6 for a start... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't rule out Cove Rangers. The Bangala bounce is coming. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s presuming that we get two up and two down which I don’t think we will. It’s also only the case if Falkirk are the team that wins the play offs which I don’t think will happen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lochwood Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 All the teams in it have really invested in more quality numbers, we have brought in two, time will tell but I’ll be really pleasantly surprised if we have enough to stay in the top four. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falkirk are on a ridiculous run tbf, but then I do look at the Dunfermline team that’s top and see Joe Chalmers starting… 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will defo be 2 up and 2 down this season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be surprised if Cove or Arbroath were to win a playoff against whoever in league 1 and going on current form Falkirk look in the best place out of them, FC Edinburgh, Alloa and Airdrie but just my feeling. Wouldn't be complaining too much tbf if the top 2 came up from league 1 from the point of view of generating more income from better away supports to Somerset which will also improve the atmosphere which no disrespect to Cove and Arbroath, but they bring neither. 8 minutes ago, Finlay21 said: I might be wrong but I don’t think we could have Ayr, Morton , Raith, Thistle , Dundee Utd and Kilmarnock all in the same league next season Unless my dodgy calculations are wrong i thought they could but possibly not 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly, for us, I agree that to some extent. Might not be a hammering but they would be favourites. We might pick up but even still if we're 9th I expect us to be down. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is ultimately one of the issues at the minute although there isn’t much we can do about it. We’d have had a smaller budget than both Dundee and QP at the start of the season and given the number of signings we had to make it’s understandable that we had to spend all our budget in the summer. Think we did well enough in January to keep Mullin and add in midfield. The Maguire signing could go either way but it’s a move that won’t have been cheap. We’ll probably need to make quite a few changes in the summer again but we should also have a bigger budget than last season. It’ll depend on who stays and who goes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ayrunitedfw Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 Our home top for next season seems to have been leaked. Looks like a QP top but I do like it tbf. Not letting me post picture. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D'Jaffo Posted February 26 Author Share Posted February 26 Every team we seem to have kits “leaked” and every year our actual kit is nowhere near what has been put online. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
