McGhee needs some support, there's no-one backing him up.

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.

October 30th - 

 

2013 - Morton 0-1 St. Johnstone a.e.t

League Cup Quarter Final.

Seconds from extra time and Novo jumps at a free-kick. It's re-taken and Caraux spills the shot to an unmarked Gary MacDonald. 

This clip is longer - the drama starts around 11:15, with the sound coming and going in time with the language. At the time we were raging at the referee for his performance in general, but Novo clearly jumps forward.

1993 - Morton 1-2 St. Mirren (o.g.)

Baker slices a cross into his own net in the 2nd minute and it was downhill after that. Wylie punched a cross to the feet of McIntyre who levelled easily. Neil Orr scored their winner, but didn't celebrate it.

2016 - Morton 3-1 St. Mirren (O'Ware, Forbes, Oliver)

Worth the wait, though it truth St. Mirren were rancid for half the season.

 

Goal cam - doesn't show the lovely touch from Quitongo in the build up to the 2nd goal.

November 3rd -

 

2012 - Albion Rovers 1-1 Morton (Weatherson)

Scottish Cup.

 

2007 - Morton 1-1 Stirling Albion (Russell)

 

2001 - Stranraer 1-4 Morton (Bottiglieri, Tweedie, O'Connor 2)

Most of the away support were standing near the exit as a dull game entered the last minutes, heading for a 1-1 draw. Suddenly it was #scenes everywhere as Sean O'Connor inspired us to three goals in injury time, with fans on the park hugging him after the 4th.

 

1990 - Morton 2-1 Ayr United (Gahagan, McCabe)

 

1984 - Morton 2-1 Celtic (Gillespie 2)

Same weather as today. Even the stewards in the stand celebrated this one.

 

http://youtu.be/_mi8iOKIqng

 

DrEaaXKWwAAlZi1.jpg

 

1979 - Morton 0-0 St. Mirren

Same weather again. This was the game which saw us go top of the Premier League, albeit on goal difference. We would have gone clear had Ritchie's penalty not rolled in the mud and stopped short of the line.

 

No Herald reports from the whole of November 79 - this was lifted from the old photos page on FB.
