TRVMP 3568 Report post Posted July 3, 2019 I think his decision to reinvent himself with his fitness regime after disappointments at Aberdeen, Dunfermline, St Mirren and Morton, show the character of the player. I’ve no doubt it’s true that his decisions are for footballing reasons, and he certainly can’t be described as a dud in anybody’s language. I hope things work out for him. I too wish well this ex-skunk who was shit for us and now scores against us for fun. Now before Gavin goes, I'd like to ask him one more question. Do you like Abba?

BishopLenBrennan 656 Report post Posted July 4, 2019 The word is he turned down Sunderland and chose United because he’d be guaranteed more game time, Hull City similarly. Now, I find that somewhat hard to believe for many reasons but if it is somehow the case, fair play to the boy. Surely if that was the case he'd sign for Hull or Sunderland on the understanding that he will be loaned out somewhere to get game time. That way he gets more money, game time and in theory gets a chance to prove himself at a decent level after another loan spell. Either way, this is a big season for him.

It's like you're getting paid for every shite hot take you post now; dependably wrong on every single topic. Edited July 4, 2019 by vikingTON The site is supposed to be a place for the extended 'family' of Morton supporters - having an affinity with people that you don't know, because you share a love of your local football club. It's not supposed to be about point scoring and showing how 'clever' or 'funny' you are, or just being downright rude and offensive to people you don't know, because you can get away with it. Unfortunately, it seems the classic case of people who have little standing/presence in real life, use this forum as a way of making themselves feel as if they are something. It's sad, and I've said that before.. So, having been on Morton forums for about 15 years I guess, I've had enough... well done t*ssers, another Morton supporter driven away.

TheGoon 523 Report post Posted July 20, 2019 Dundee United closing in on a loan deal for Stevie May apparently. A few years ago that’d have been a terrific bit of business, regressed as a player since then though - should still do a very decent job at this level though.

AyrshireTon 426 Report post Posted July 20, 2019 Ayr United's game today delayed due to problems with new turnstiles - could it be the same as ours? McGhee needs some support, there's no-one backing him up. Hayes playing it forward, Bell being forced to do it all alone, now forward from Marr, here's Ritchie, still Andy Ritchie, look at the control... That is a marvellous goal from Andy Ritchie. Twenty minutes on the clock and Morton's supporters come alive. A goal which epitomises the control, the arrogance, the cheek of Andy Ritchie. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A few years ago that’d have been a terrific bit of business, regressed as a player since then though - should still do a very decent job at this level though. I've not watched a huge amount of him at Aberdeen, but most of the times I've saw him my impression has been that you can see the player he was in there, but that it never quite happens. It could be that that's his level now (which should still be more than enough to do damage in the Championship) and that he never quite gets back to his best, but hopefully not. Always really liked him as a player, so I'd like to see it working out well for him apart from when he plays against us. AWMSC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ayrstorm 7 Report post Posted July 21, 2019 Ayr United's game today delayed due to problems with new turnstiles - could it be the same as ours? no. they have not changed the physical turnstiles, they have gone with the same system/supplier as Ayr Racecourse. The turnstyle operators have handheld devices that read your ticket QR code - which can be your season card, a physical ticket from the shop/office, a pdf printed from home or a code on your phone. I believe the issue was a combination of a decent sized visiting support and an older Ayr support who prefer cash to anything being done online. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

port-ton 100 Report post Posted July 22, 2019 It was Ally Maxwell I scored past in the 90s open days.

capitanus 3268 Report post Posted July 22, 2019 Peter Grant has been coaching down south for about 20 years now, he was even Manager at Norwich at one point. I think he would be an interesting choice for manager, in a similar way that Steve Clarke was for Kilmarnock a couple of seasons back. You know I hate every pop star that I ever met.
