Great to get a good look around inside a classic Scottish ground, it was all shut when I visited but still looked great from the outside !

Wow, didn’t know this was an Archibald Leitch stadium ! You learn something new every day !

It’s a classic old style stadium that I think should be listed by Historic Scotland to preserve it. It was built in 1888!!! Full of character and soul.

I loved this stadium. So much history and soul. Just amazing

I’m a football fan from Australia, and travelled to Ayr in 2018 as my granddad lived there before moving to Australia. Loved every minute when I found the club. Even got to hold the trophy they won in 2018. Later found out my great great great relatives played for the club. Once upon a time I never knew about the club, but now I keep up to date every weekend for them. Go on Ayr

Enjoyable and informative video........a real football club. The genuineness of the interviewee stands out.

My first ever Scottish football match was Celtic v Ayr Utd, at Celtic Park, in 1988 (Cup). I couldn't walk after the game, from sitting on the barriers in the terracing. My old man had to carry me down the steps until the feeling came back in my arse and legs.

Another old school ground with so much character...cool video sir 👍

Fair play, I’ve heard worse renditions of Tam O’Shanter. I was at the 98 Scottish Cup tie with Kilmarnock, as a neutral (hospitality guest in the portacabins). Great day, great game, incredible atmosphere.

Go to the game at Somerset vs Kilmarnock, atmosphere should be good.

Been to this stadium a few times good day out

I watched on BBC Scotland when they beat Kilmarnock in 1998/99 SFA Cup. I remember back then thinking it looked like a great stadium. The atmosphere looked amazing.

A bit ironic but the Chairman and owner of Ayr United back in the day owned Barr Construction the company that built and renovated many stadia both in Scotland and England. The irony being he never spent a penny upgrading Somerset park.

is the stadium near the beach/sea...i want to go for a swim before going to the game.

one of the best stadiums in scotland

Motherwell fan but went along to a Ayr United v Brechin match a couple of years ago. The seats in the main stand are tiny! Designed for people that were 5'3 max!

And in 1910 they were closer to that, clue was in the first second of the video

Other famous players included Dick Malone who transferred to Sunderland and was part of the FA Cup winning team under Bob Stokoe. Also you failed to mention Stevie Nichol who played for Liverpool and Scotland after leaving Ayr United. Finally look up Jimmy Smith he's in the records.

Watched them training this morning ayr united i cant see promotion this year

i was at the game when we won it the last day of the season

In that League 1 winning season Ayr were 5 points ahead of Raith with 9 to play for and yet went into last day 1 point behind and with a 3-0 win over Albion Rovers and Raith drawing with Alloa 0-0 they just about got over the line

I’m more of a fan of Scotland’s worst poet. Walter mccorrisken.: ‘on yonder hill there stood a coo.it’s no ther noo it must have shifted’. A coo is a Scottish word for cow. Nice ground Ayr. Their fans have a a bit of a hooligan Element though. Our bus was pelted with stones the last time I was there. I enjoyed your video on the football shirts. Why not do one on the away kits?
