Or we only concentrating on negative comments? Going on the majority plus what I've seen, I don't think he was very good for Ayr. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Roy Barry Fan Club Posted January 24, 2022 Report Share Posted January 24, 2022 Well he played just about every game for Inverness in the two seasons 2017/8 and 2018/9. 96 games in total. Let's hope we see that player. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyser Soze Posted January 24, 2022 Report Share Posted January 24, 2022 I honestly don’t think I can recall ever seeing him play. Mixed reviews from Ayr fans but sometimes a new dressing room can work wonders for a player. Morale is a huge part of a players game so fingers crossed it comes together for him here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have obviously seen him play ? and also know a lot more about him to post such an early negative comment Gee Whiz at least give him time to get in the door !!

Tartan Army Par Posted January 24, 2022 Report Share Posted January 24, 2022 Looking at his time at Ayr. He was signed by Mark Kerr. Kerr liked his teams to play a bit. Kerr was sacked soon after. Hopkin and Duffy then played a direct style afterwards. Not saying it was the reason he has not done well, but maybe he was suited to a different style of team. Inverness fans seem to have a different option of him, and think he was decent to very good at times with them. I think Yogi seems to want guys who can pass and are comfortable on the ball. In his interview he says that he brings something a bit different to what we have and sounds pretty pleased to get him. Maybe a change of club and style might get the best out of him. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on Ayr fans having watched him play over the past two seasons? I have seen him play yes. 🤷♂️ There were negative comments about the Grant appointment, and his summer buisness, was that the reason it failed? No, it failed because it was bad. If you're going to shut your eyes and just clap along at whatever it makes any opinion pointless. We've signed a player, from what I've seen of him, and from what the fans of his other clubs say it doesn't seem like a very good signing, it's really not that deep.

Maybe the last 2 managers at ayr he wouldn’t have suited the style they played? But time will tell, let’s just get behind him and the rest of them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Secure Par Posted January 24, 2022 Report Share Posted January 24, 2022 Ayr fans don’t rate him but obviously Yogi sees him in the style of play he wants so we will just see.. good luck to him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al k Posted January 24, 2022 Report Share Posted January 24, 2022 I don't recall him at all. Badly needed a midfielder, first of a few hopefully. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piracy Posted January 24, 2022 Report Share Posted January 24, 2022 Pleased with signing a midfielder. Trusting Yogi on this one, along with any new signings he makes. He deserves that backing imo given he inherited a team. Let's see who comes in next and then how they'll actually perform. I believe we're staying up.

Secure Par Posted January 24, 2022 Report Share Posted January 24, 2022 I can see where yogi is coming from. He likes player in positions that are good on their strong foot like right CB right foot and Left CB left foot so he wants that through the team. Its obvious in midfield that we can play wide so a player on their good foot can move the ball faster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe we're staying up. Some sections of the support are already getting on Yogi's back,they have to realise he is sorting out a complete mess Grant left us in. He has my full backing and our aim is just to stay up this season and let Yogi rebuild in the summer. Strange one Ayr letting a player go to a relegation rival? Bullen must not rate him 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boston Red Sox Posted January 24, 2022 Report Share Posted January 24, 2022 (edited) Dom Thomas under Grant - Lazy, didn't try, waste of a shirt etc (if the other site is to be believed). Dom Thomas under Hughes - The second coming. Manager, formation and style of play has a big influence on a player and how he performs on the park and how they are perceived.

The issue with grant is that he didn’t want to play anyone that was already with us, dropped OFW, Watson, gasputis, Thomas etc like a ton of bricks. Only started playing them when he realised his signings were absolutely awful. Yogi needs to get us survival then a huge rebuild in the summer. Thomas coming back is going to be like a new signing for us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
