Signing Off With A Slump
A Review of Morton’s 2023-24 season, Part Three
By Russell Gordon
Beware the ides of March. After sixteen games unbeaten, but with a mounting injury list following the loss of George Oakley, Ryan Mullen and Iain Wilson, a defeat was perhaps inevitable at some point in March, with the visits of promotion-chasing Dundee United and high-flying Premiership big-guns Hearts on the horizon.
But it was the visit of struggling Inverne

Sitting on eight points and at the bottom of the Championship, if ever Morton needed a relief from league duty it was now. While the country’s focus was diverted to marking the national team’s fine achievement in reaching the summer’s European Championships in Germany as Scotland drew the curtain on their excellent qualifying campaign with a 3-3 dr

The Disaster Seasons Part 2- From the Sublime to the Ridiculous
By Russell Gordon
While I recently wrote about Morton’s worst ever season on the anniversary of that game at New Douglas Park ten years ago, it’s safe to say Morton have had a few bad experiences at that particular venue, not to mention difficult seasons when the year ends in a four.
Though 2013-14 was, certainly in my time following Morton the club’s worst, in what is arguably the least

A Review of Morton’s 2023-24 Season, Part One
By Russell Gordon
So, after ten months of ups and downs, another season has come and gone. Once again, Morton have finished fifth in the Championship- but while last time around, the season’s climax was met with a sense of gut-wrenching disappointment at such a near miss in the race for the play-offs, this time around, the sense of frustration can only really come from Morton’s

The Disaster Seasons, Part 1- Celtic Park Celebrations and Douglas Park Despair
By Russell Gordon
With Morton’s season reaching its climax this evening with a trip to play opponents who have far more at stake than our own favourites, it’s perhaps appropriate that the trip to an Inverness side who are desperate for points, but thankfully not requiring to make up a goal difference deficit, falls on the tenth anniversary of Morton’s darkest day, on the park at least.

The curtain comes down on the cinch Championship for another season as Morton take the long road up the A9 to visit Inverness Caledonian Thistle for a game which could confirm a second successive fifth placed finish for Dougie Imrie’s side after an up-and-down season in which they fell short of the promotion play-offs with a bit more to spare this time around.
However, the host
Morton v Raith Rovers – Match Preview
by Russell Gordon
With Morton’s place in the Championship secured for another season, and their big-spending visitors Raith Rovers’ place in second all but confirmed at the time of writing, but most probably set in stone by the time the match kicks off, Cappielow Park supported by Dalrada Technology hosts the deadest of dead-rubbers on the penultimate weekend of the season.
All that is at stake for Dougie Imrie’s side is the

Arbroath v Morton – Match Preview
by Russell Gordon
With only a small concern over the possibility of Morton ending up in the relegation play-offs, and the play-offs at the right end of the table now arithmetically out of reach after a dismal seven weeks or so since Morton’s sixteen match unbeaten run came to an end, the irresistible force meets the immoveable object as our favourites make what could be their last trip to Gayfield for a while to visit already relegated Arb
Morton v Dundee United – Match Preview
by Russell Gordon
Well, that’s it. Done and dusted. We can forget about promotion, and don’t have any realistic concerns of relegation either. And so, begins the first of four dead-rubbers from a Morton perspective.
Their visitors Dundee United however, have far more pressing issues after Airdrie’s victory over big-spending Raith Rovers left the Terrors in pole position in the race for the Championship title, with their trip
Ayr United v Morton - Match Preview
by Russell Gordon
There’s no hiding from it, after Saturday’s terribly disappointing result from a miserable afternoon in Airdrie, Morton are playing for snookers if they are to have any ambitions of claiming a play-off place, with the Diamonds now five points clear of them and looking like clear favourites to book a quarter final meeting with Partick in early May.
The visit to Ayr United- another side on the periphery of the play-

With the Glasgow side only a point behind Morton, albeit having played a game more, Dougie Imrie will see this as the perfect time to get back to winning ways against a team who have s
Morton v Dunfermline Athletic – Match Preview
by Russell Gordon
Morton welcome Dunfermline Athletic to Cappielow Park supported by Dalrada Technology hoping to arrest a run of form that has now stretched to four defeats on the bounce after last Saturday’s defeat to Partick at Firhill.
With the Pars’ form having improved since their East End Park mauling by Morton last month, Dougie Imrie’s side will be well aware of the threat James McPake’s side pose as the push
Partick Thistle v Morton – Match Preview
by Russell Gordon
With Morton’s adventures in the Scottish Cup over for another year after Monday night’s gallant performance against Premiership heavyweights Hearts proved to be in vain, it’s back to the league for Dougie Imrie’s men, and an important match against our good friends Partick at Firhill.
With our hosts on a poor run of form, having now gone eight matches without a victory after Tuesday night’s defeat to big
