IT'S BACK TO BASICS FOR AYR

Brown hits reset ahead of play-offs

- STUART WILSON

Scott Brown says Ayr will go “back to basics” in a bid to be ready for the play-offs.

United have hit the skids with just one win in seven - culminating in Friday night's 5-0 battering at Livingston.

The form slump has come just at the wrong time as the Honest Men look to build momentum for the end of season shootout.

Brown told the Post: “You want to go into these games in a good frame of mind and clearly we aren't there right now.

“It’s a case of going back to basics. We need to find our rhythm again.

“Friday night was nowhere near it and we won't accept it.
