Great summary as ever Russell, many thanks for that! I was a bit surprised however that upgrading Cappielow wasn't one of the main agenda items, as this will require significant investment in the near future. Would have been interesting to know what the plans are for this, and perhaps more importantly, how it will be financed.
Bloody marvellous article Russell.
Am actually going to make sure my boy reads this.
Itallics for desparately and agonising are the cherry on top of the cake!!!
" Lee Bullan’s side will be looking to get back to winning ways after seeing his side draw 2-2 at home to Cove Rangers, followed by a 2-1 defeat in the hands of Dundee last week."
Ayr have won their last 2 games mate, home to Thistle and away to Arbroath.
That's a great bit of writing. Thank you.
That thistle game will live long in the memory - I left my house in Warsaw at 6 in the morning to get a flight to Amsterdam to pick up a connecting flight to Glasgow. Got to Glasgow in time to do some shopping for the family and then have lunch with a mate and a couple of pints before the game. Standing in the queue outside Firhill and seeing people I hadn't seen in ages. Getting to the turnstile and having to beg the copper to let me in with the metal coffee cup I'd bought for my wife - he claimed it was potentially offensive, but relented when I showed him my flight tickets. He seemed less concerned with the caramel wafers for the kids. Then 90 minutes of pure tension; always worrying about what Clyde were doing. Absolute joy at the final whistle before trying to rush back to the airport for the flight back. Got home just after midnight. Wouldn't have missed it for anything, but it still doesn't get into my top 3 trips to watch Morton.
