Shankland got no service and was marked by 2 at most times. He would have been better sitting on the centre spot to create space for others. Every time we had the ball there was 2 and 3 defenders right in the face to win it back.

I think Aperre would have been better in the centre interchanging with Shankland on the left to create space and confusion. We also left far to much space between midfield and the back 4.

Brown did OK, not outstanding and lucky not to be carded but maybe if he had better mobility he wouldn't be like a roundabout...

The Ayr stream was poor quality however the commentators were much more enthusiastic than the couple we have on the zone.
This is pretty much spot on. They were hungrier and worked harder and played like a team. The boy Moffatt (34/35?) ran our defence ragged. Going back to one up front and playing Appere so deep was bonkers. Need to get at all those teams hard first 15 mins. Arbroath and Morton now we need 6 points please
