Dundee United Ayr United 2-0 Dundee United: No new manager bounce for United By Reporter October 6 2018, 4:52pm October 6 2018, 4:52pm Share Ayr United 2-0 Dundee United: No new manager bounce for United Share via Facebook Twitter Linkedin Whatsapp Messenger Email Post link https://www.thecourier.co.uk/fp/sport/football/dundee-united/740177/ayr-united-2-0-dundee-united-no-new-manager-bounce-for-united/ Copy Link Dejected Dundee United players at Somerset Park. If Laurie Ellis wants the Dundee United manager’s job on a permanent basis, this result or performance won’t help his cause. The interim boss was unable to mastermind a victory against the league leaders and the Tangerines’ poor form continues. Lawrence Shankland put Ayr ahead midway through the first half, after United had started quite well. Then at about the same stage of the second period, Declan McDaid sealed the result for the hosts, moments after striking the crossbar. This was no free hit for United as the board make their mind up on who will replace Csaba Laszlo. They are now eight points behind Ayr and six behind Ross County, with only goal difference keeping them in the last play-off place.
