The Honest Men were lethal as they ripped 10-man Falkirk apart at Somerset.
SCOTT BROWN hailed five star Ayr United for their Christmas cracker of a Somerset performance this afternoon.Ayr took full advantage of an eighth minute red card for Bairns centre half Luke Graham to batter the league leaders.
Brown insisted ref David Dickinson was right to produce the red card so early in the game when Graham stuck out a hand 25 yards from goal with George Oakley bearing down behind him. “I’m delighted for Alfie to come on and score two goals because he’s been in an out. Strikers are judged on goals and he’s put himself in a position where I might need to have a decision to make for next week."
Ayr piled forward with the man advantage and Jamie Murphy hit the post as they dominated. Their pressure finally paid off when Connor McLennan headed home a wicked corner from Jay Henderson. Then they hit the front before half time when another Henderson corner was too hot to handle for the Falkirk defence and Scott McMann rose to head home.
