From what I saw today I'd happily play against a team with Lawrence Shankland upfront every week.

Or you could look at it from  the point that Shankland has scored 9 goals this season so far and the defence managed to stifle him effectively.

Polly deserved everything he got todayishe's already thinking he was meant to be passing to team mates in black and white sooner he goes the better absolutely awful

Totally agree with you. How Polworth stayed on for the whole 90mins Is a mystery to me, he was atrocious. Lost count of the wayward passes and giving the ball away. He has no fight and gives up on 50 50 balls. Time on the bench might do him good.

A game that we should've won comfortably, even considering the dire performance.

Worrying that there's a serious lack of pace in this team. For the first home game of the season, it felt like an end of season game such was the sluggish performance. Most of those players look like they'd be quicker walking!

No creativity, predictive passing, and slow tempo in the final third cost us 2 points. No width. Strange substitutions too didn't help. Austin subbed yet Oakley offered zero all game. Trafford and Chalmers and Walsh were invisible. 

As usual Polworth is the one singled out for abuse (yawn) but he's the only player taking the ball to at least try and make things happen. He'll be the first to admit he didn't have the best game today but to receive that kind of abuse !!??....have a word wi yourselves !!???

Jeez guys. Some of you are so far off the mark it's embarrassing. Get a grip ffs . The chants from the North Stand were pathetic. Next time up, you will be confronted if not battered stupid.

What chants other than your crap your pish or is that to extreme for you. To many happy clappers in our support willing to sit and just say well done next time. And folk saying it's the fans fault for a professional to have a bad performance are deluded. That's the problem the fan base doesn't show enough emotion. So feel free to confront us. And see who gets battered.

Absolutely no plan B from Robertson. Punting endless balls into the box didn't work in the first half, so why persist with it in the second? We needed someone to get behind their back four and cut balls back. We need players willing to take a player on and beat him, we needed pace. Ayr were hitting with pace on the counter attack and looked dangerous at times while we were ponderous at getting the ball forward, nearly every pass was sideways. Please ICT practice penalties and let the best one take them. What should have been an easy three points after the sending off and resulting penalty, turned into a slog, and if you want supporters to return, you need to give them something to return for, not whàt was on offer today.

If they keep that performance level up sub 2000 crowds on average beckon

First time I have heard a team booed off on the opening day of the season at home. Gonna be long one I feel.

Never really looked like scoring today although some decent balls into the box from the 2 full backs but other than that there was very little to get excited about.

Think central midfield is gonna be a problem , not to sure about Chalmers and Trafford although the latter works hard . No pace or guile cannot see how they are going to hurt teams , best option  was when Donaldson carried the ball out from the back.

Early days yet but need to improve quickly .

On a day which started with a minute's silence to mark what is really important, then it is sickening to see where we are at right now. 

This is football. Nothing more than that.

Don't abuse ANYBODY. Just support your team and most importantly respect all round, to EVERYBODY.

I can't believe we have stooped so low to boo a player who has been with us loyally for all of his football career.

The abuse of his family was well out of order, some people need to take a good look at themselves

Would this have happened and would this discussion be taking place if Polly had scored that penalty?

I tell you he's probably feeling a lot worse about it that any of you are.

Those verbally abusing Polworth & his family should be utterly ashamed of themselves. Firstly, the whole team didn't exactly cover themselves in glory so why should he, in particular, be singled out? It smacks of "let's go to the match this afternoon & shout abuse at Polly for 90 mins" - if that's all your tiny, warped minds can focus on then perhaps you need to be having a long, hard look in the mirror. It wasn't actually his fault that we didn't win today, so don't treat him as if it was.Secondly, what possible reason would anyone feel the need to chant abuse towards his family? Did they have any direct impact on the match? I have a fairly good idea of what the reaction would be if the abusers' families were getting a dose of the same medicine. These immature lads need to get a grip & at least try to act in a more responsible manner - one day you might end up suffering the same type of abuse & you'll wonder why no-one cares?

This was a good Ayr side full of confidence and it showed despite being down to 10 men for most of the match, the amount of effort they put in was top drawer. The problem was that we looked like we could unlock their defence at any time but we wasted so many chances, never mind the penalty miss.

They seem to thrive on this type of debate against their hate campaign. I for one will be looking out for their next attempt to demean our side.

Not often I comment on this page but my daughter who is 2 years old got kicked in the head by an idiot who jumped over the barrier to get the ball near the end of the game. She ok now but there was a bit of blood from her lip. Cheers to the lady and her daughter who came over to offer assistance.
