Ryan Duncan unused sub for QP tonight. Shame, it's not really working out for him. He's still only 20, and has some good attributes, but he'll need to do something special if he's going to make it for the Dons. It's a pity that none of our young players are benefiting from the minutes being shared throughout the squad. I think we could have carried someone like Duncan in games this season to try and build his confidence. It does seem to be a confidence issue, as he's not a terrible footballer. 

Ethan Ross looking good again. A very strange career so far, but still plenty of time for him to give it a shot in the top league. Looks like he might be one of those that will stand out in the championship but might not cope with the move up a division.

I have never seen anything to back up this unfortunately.

It's never a great sign when a young player goes on loan at a level down and doesn't set the heather alight. Not necessarily the end of the road but you'd really want these boys to be shining in the championship to be reassured they've got what it takes to excel for us.

McKenna wasn't a stand out for Ayr. A lot depends on confidence and physical attributes, and I think Duncan struggles with the former. He was very good at Peterhead, but he seems to have had the strong running beaten out of him during the last few managers. As @BigAl says, it'd be good to see what Thelin could do with him.

VAR taking a lifetime to decide whether the Southampton second goal is on or off. 

They added 10 minutes at the end of second half which I assume was mainly the result of VAR check. 
 

ETA I only saw last bit of game as had been over the road watching Scotland’s Women’s team play out boring 0-0 draw with Finland.
