1897 - Hamilton 3-3 Morton

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.

2015 - Rangers 2-2 Morton (og, McCluskey)

Nearly. The scenes following McCluskey's goal were fantastic.

 

Rangers commentary. Spot the difference in enthusiasm for the goal.

I read all these memory games and we get a fair amount of humpings for a sleeping giant/big club...

I remember during the season we finished bottom of the 2nd division (2002) thinking how far we'd fallen, losing 3-1 at home to Cowdenbeath and 4-1 at home to Forfar. Then I recall the 80-90 period when we lost 7-1 at home to both Dundee & Clydebank, 5-1 at home to F*lk*rk (twice) and 5-1 at Forfar, F*lk*rk and St. Mirren.

 

Then, like you, I read the old scores and realise that stuff like that actually happens to us quite a lot (see Ayr and Ross County this season).

2008 - St. Johnstone 1-0 Morton

 

2003 - Berwick Rangers 2-3 Morton (J Maisano 2, Weatherson)

This was the game where LargsTon, myself and a few others hired a minibus and hit the pubs after the game, ending up in Bedrock's nightclub. Great game and a mental night.

 

1997 - Morton 0-2 Falkirk 

John Anderson had to go in goals for most of the first half.

1992 - Morton 2-3 Hamilton (Alexander 2)

League Challenge Cup final (B&Q Cup at the time). Played at Love Street.

Mahood should never have started. Bewildering decision to play him from a manager who was himself suffering from the consequences of having to play when he was injured.

 

Hamilton's second goal was missed by the Scotsport cameras.

I would love to see a table of where we would be, based on all competitive league games. what position would we be out of all clubs as that could show our place Scottish football.

 

I think we could be anywhere between 18 - 22.

 

Overall, I believe our history shows we have spent more time in the second tier (Championship) than any other.

The referee deserved some credit for the 4th, for seeing than an offside Alex Williams opted to stand still and let Jani chase his own through ball past a bunch of defenders with raised arms.

End of the clip has Rajamaki all but saying that both teams were s***e.

1987 - Morton 1-7 Dundee (Alexander)

We went 1-0 up very early on, scoring our first goal since Halloween, and then shipped seven. Every time Dundee broke they looked like scoring (or rather, we looked like chucking one in). Lars Christiansen made his debut whilst Karsten Margaard came on as a sub - and got an ovation after getting booked before he'd even touched the ball.

The second time we'd conceded seven that season. We get to see Clydebank win by the same scoreline at Scapa four years later.

Despite the ground being solid and there being lumps of ice all over the pitch, the game went ahead once sand had be chucked on them.

2005 - Peterhead 1-0 Morton

Freezing, absolutely freezing.Fans all huddled in the back corner of the stand.  A late Bobby Linn goal looked to have won it until we got a penalty in stoppage time. Weatherson's soft effort was saved. A 12 hour round trip for a freezing defeat.

 

1988 - Ayr United 3-1 Morton (Fowler)

John Fowler's effort on half time looked to have gotten us a point until Henry Templeton scored two late goals.
