We are right back to Scottish Championship action this Friday when we take on Ayr United.

It is a 7.45pm kick-off at Somerset Park on Friday, December 12 and we would of course love your support from the away end.

Here is everything you need to know ahead of the fixture…

TICKETS

St Johnstone supporters can choose between the Railway End (standing behind the goal) or the West Stand (seating) for this fixture.

Tickets prices are as follows:

Adult – £22

Concession (over 65s, disabled, ambulant and students) – £15

Juvenile (13-17-years-old) – £15

Child (Under 13s) – £6.

BUY YOUR TICKETS HERE!

If any disabled/ambulant supporters require a carer, then they will be able to obtain one free carer ticket by calling Ayr’s Club Shop on 01292 263 435 (option 1).

Supporters must have a ticket or they will not be permitted entry to the Stadium. Tickets must be purchased online in advance of the match as there will not be any cash gates in operation at Somerset Park.

TRAVEL

By car

From the A77 take the A719 (Whitletts Road) into Ayr. After passing the racecourse on your left, turn right at the next set of traffic lights for the ground, or turn left to take you down to an unofficial car park. Turning right will take you into Burnett Terrace, then left into Hawkhill Avenue and then right into Somerset Road. The ground is down on the left. There is a small car park at the ground adjacent to the Main Stand but this is for pass holders only. However, there is plenty of street parking to be found in the area around the stadium.

By train

Ayr Railway Station is a ten minute walk away from Somerset Park. Exit the station through the back entrance (to the left as you come off the platform, over the footbridge) and turn left once outside. Walk up to the roundabout at the fire station, and go straight ahead at the roundabout, past the left hand side of the Civic Theatre. Continue up this road (Craigie Road) to the traffic lights at the top. Go straight across again at this junction, then take a left and a right and you’re there. Away fans walk to the left, behind the Main Stand.

THE OPPOSITION

Ayr United are currently sitting in fourth position in the William Hill Championship on 24 points.

In their last league outing, Scott Brown’s side shared the points with Partick Thistle in a 0-0 draw at Somerset Park.

Ahead of our game on Friday, Ayr take on Peterhead in the KDM Evolution Trophy.
