There was also another couple of players who were connected with both clubs, Nigel Jemson left Ayr to go back to your team for his 2nd spell at the club and John Robertson also left Ayr but returned the following season.
I think general (reluctant, as i say he is a legend in these parts) opinion is shotton didnt have the nous as a manager mate.
