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.

6 years ago today Tam O’Ware saw red for Airdrie after making a feeble attempt to put the nut on Peter Weatherson as the ‘Ton record a 4-0 win away at the Shyberry Excelsior. The diamonds finished the game with 9 men after another villain, whose name I don’t recall, hoofs Freddy Bachirou up in the air. I also recall a seat being ripped out and flung in the air by a member of the home support.

That Clyde game in '08 will forever live in infamy.

For Clyde too - as seen by this "effort" of footage and photos with some Clyde song. The winning goal is around the 10 minute mark.

The comment about that Clyde game got me thinking - what other specific games resulted in a manager getting punted?

 

Benny Rooney was punted just before the end of our final season in the top flight, despite having a clear plan to get us back up in one year.

 

Billy Stark walked after a 6-2 horsing at Inverness, but I reckon that was more to do with how HS was running things.

 

Kenny Sheils after a game at Hamilton.

Alan Moore after we were taken apart and put in an absolutely pitiful performance at home to Livingston in a game which same our "Belgian International Forward" Cham sent off as we were demolished 5-1 .
