I don't understand why you where not in a situation to be employed, as I understood you had already your TR and base training before the summer season? Do you really think that with 10 sectors +- 30hrs, you will be in better situation? Before 500hrs(100 Hrs for Ryanair) you will be in the same bag than Ab-initio with a TR and no hours. That stupid if you had not apply before now you will have to wait for the next season. I think the best for you is to negociate with AEU to do all your line training with them and then go to Ryanair, unless you are hired by AEU.
