AyrshireTon Posted March 5, 2019 Author Share Posted March 5, 2019 March 5th - 2013 - Hamilton 2-1 Morton (O'Brien) 2011 - Dunfermline 1-3 Morton (Lyle, O'Brien, Weatherson) All three goals hilariously assisted by the Dunfermline defence. http://youtu.be/yMFN1Wl_6ag 2005 - Arbroath 0-1 Morton (Millar) LargsTon chose the exact moment to phone me for an update on the game as Chris Millar did to score an injury time winner. Someone got onto the park to celebrate with Millar. 1994 - Dunfermline 3-0 Morton Much angry protesting from the away fans. 1991 - Morton 0-0 Clyde 1988 - Dundee 1-0 Morton 1983 - Morton 0-3 Celtic 1979 - Morton 0-1 Hearts Scottish Cup replay. The goal described isn't quite as I remember it. I recall Connaghan dropping a cross and Busby slamming it home. The chat in the car going home was that we needed a new keeper. Roy Baines duly arrived for our next game and Connaghan never played for Morton again. 1977 - Morton 1-1 Hamilton (Goldthorp) 1966 - Dundee 5-1 Morton (Campbell) 1960 - Morton 3-2 Stenhousemuir (Collings 2, Stewart) 1955 - Morton 3-2 Alloa Athletic (Liddell, Hannigan, Bryceland) 1952 - Celtic 2-2 Morton (Orr 2) Sadly, it did not "sound the death knell for St. Mirren". We eventually contrived to finish 2nd bottom, one point behind them. 1949 - F*lk*rk 1-0 Morton McGhee needs some support, there's no-one backing him up.

Team came out all guns blazing and could have scored 3 in the opening 5 minutes. Moments later we were 1-0 down. Had a few other chances but the game was over by half time. http://youtu.be/vCOVvgcdCCg 1970 - Morton 1-1 St. Johnstone (Rankin) 1964 - Stirling Albion 1-2 Morton (Adamson, McGraw) Our only win on this date. 1959 - Morton 1-3 St. Johnstone (Beaton) 1936 - Morton 3-5 Third Lanark (Ferguson, Calder, Benzie) Scottish Cup. 1931 - F*lk*rk 3-1 Morton (Lyle) 1925 - Morton 1-3 Cowdenbeath (Campbell) 1914 - Aberdeen 2-1 Morton (Gourlay) 1908 - Morton 1-1 Clyde (Hendry) McGhee needs some support, there's no-one backing him up.

AyrshireTon Posted March 8, 2019 Author Share Posted March 8, 2019 March 8th - 2008 - Hamilton 3-0 Morton 2005 - Forfar 2-0 Morton This game was called off an hour before kick-off originally, causing a number of Morton fans to head to Perth to watch St. Mirren losing. On a Tuesday night, whilst many others sat at home watching Chelsea and Barcelona play one of the greatest games ever seen, a handful of us froze our balls off watching a terrible performance at Station Park. 2003 - Queen's Park 0-1 Morton (Adam) The game at which I first met the poster formerly known as "Beaver". 1999 - Morton 0-3 Celtic Scottish Cup. There are lengthy highlights elsewhere, including Kevin Twaddle getting beaten by a balloon. We gave it a right go on the night, but the 2nd goal knocked the stuffing out of us. We pressed high and they did not get to enjoy their usual "play it from the back" system. Just before the 2nd goal, two of their defenders nearly squared up due to their repeated failure to get the ball forward. http://youtu.be/ED5q7F8RYYM 1997 - Morton 2-5 Kilmarnock (Mahood 2) Scottish Cup. http://youtu.be/pf09qZLuD6s 1986 - Montrose 1-1 Morton (Robertson) 1980 - Celtic 2-0 Morton Scottish Cup. 1978 - Morton 0-1 Heart of Midlothian A top of the table clash. Dundee won also and still topped the table, but we had two games in hand. 1975 - Morton 0-1 Hibernian 1969 - Morton 4-3 Hibernian (Harper 3, Bartram) 1958 - Albion Rovers 2-2 Morton (Gourlay, Beaton) 1952 - Stirling Albion 1-1 Morton (Garth pen) 1947 - Morton 1-2 Aberdeen (McKillop) Scottish Cup replay.

Doak's header got us a point. Think someone smashed a window on the way back to the bus after this one. 1991 - Kilmarnock 1-1 Morton (Gahagan) 1974 - Morton 0-0 Aberdeen 1968 - Morton 2-1 Elgin City (Arentoft, Mason) Scottish Cup Quarter Final.

Alibi Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 1975 - Motherwell 3-0 Morton I notice in that report on the 3-0 defeat by Motherwell in 1975 that we had a Ray Hudson on loan from Newcastle. I don't remember seeing him at the time, but I assume it is the same Ray Hudson who is half of Bein Sport USA's commentary team that now covers Barcelona games - he has a very good turn of phrase and comes out with some really funny stuff. "Any nation given the opportunity to regain its national sovereignty and which then rejects it is so far beneath contempt that it is hard to put words to it."
