Match Preview
Reid has keeper quandary Ayr United manager Brian Reid has a goalkeeping dilemma ahead of the visit of Peterhead. David Crawford is back from suspension but Reid could stick with 42-year-old trialist Alan Main. Reid said: "David was unlucky to be sent off against Airdrie whereas Alan made a couple of crucial stops against Dumbarton and I have yet to make up my mind." Defender Dean Keenan starts a two-game ban and defender Bobby Donnelly is still absent because of a hamstring injury. Stephen McKeown and Mark Roberts need fitness checks but Ross Robertson, Hibs loanee Scott Taggart and the experienced Willie Easton are all fit again. Peterhead defender Bobby Mann has joined striker Davie Ross on the sidelines with an ankle injury. But Martin Bavidge is available after work commitments kept him out in midweek against Inverness Caledonian Thistle when the Blue Toon went down 3-0. The Balmoor men have still to pick up a point, but manager Neale Cooper is not panicking "Of course it is not a nice place to be but we have played well in our games this season," said Cooper. "I would be a lot more worried about going to Ayr if we had not been playing as well as we have."

Match Report
Roberts is spot on Substitute Mark Roberts' last-gasp penalty earned Ayr a point in a 1-1 draw against Peterhead and extended their unbeaten run to four games. Roberts blasted the penalty straight down the middle after Neil McVitie had handled inside the area. The result leaves Peterhead still searching for their first win of the season. The visitors took the lead after 11 minutes when midfielder Paul Emslie's right-footed strike found the corner after a great through ball from striker Dennis Wyness. Emslie turned villain in the 78th minute when he was sent off for a foul on midfielder Steven McLaughlin - his second bookable offence of the game. The 10 men had looked like holding on until Roberts' late strike.
