AyrshireTon Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Graham scoring a couple again tonight as Raith go 4-0 up at Ross County. 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.

stuart Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Brian Graham has now scored 9 goals this season. Anyone wish we had kept him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevie Aitken's Love Child Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Graham has been on fire since he came back from that operation at the tail end of last season. Some hilarious scorelines in the cup tonight, with Killie getting pumped at home off Stenhousemuir, and Queen of the South 2-0 up on Hibs, added to the Raith scoreline.

Mr Toon Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Brian Graham has now scored 9 goals this season. Anyone wish we had kept him? We tried to but Raith offered him a two year contract while with the exception of Michael Tidser's three, we were only offering one year. "Yes", as I said at the time I wish we had kept him, but I am glad he's doing well and hope that goes on except of course, against us. Most of the First Division clubs are doing well so far tonight.

Considering our record for producing cup shocks I don't find any of those scores funny in the slightest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always gives me a chuckle to see one of the 'big boys' lose to a wee team, regardless. Lighten up man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyrshireTon Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Considering our record for producing cup shocks I don't find any of those scores funny in the slightest. I'm with you on this one - rarely happens to us. Won't stop me slagging off the Killie fans at work if Stenny pull this one off. 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.

port-ton Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Off the top of my head i can remember three cup shocks from us in about 6 years. St Johnstone, Kilmarnock and Hibs. Not a bad record.

None in 4 years is piss poor. Prior to that we beat newly promoted Dundee in the late 90s under Billy Stark. Definitely happens more to other clubs than to us.

port-ton Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 None in 4 years is piss poor. How many opportunities have we had in those 4 years to cause an upset, and what were the scores in the games? You do the work, since it's your point.

Toby Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 (edited) How many opportunities have we had in those 4 years to cause an upset, and what were the scores in the games? You do the work, since it's your point. Since knocking out Hibs at Easter Road on 26th August 2008, out record in the cups against SPL teams is as follows; 2012-13 League Cup Morton 0-2 Aberdeen (after extra time) 2011-12 League Cup Morton 3-4 St. Mirren Scottish Cup Motherwell 6-0 Morton 2010-11 League Cup St. Johnstone 2-0 Morton Scottish Cup Inverness 5-1 Morton 2009-10 League Cup Kilmarnock 3-1 Morton Scottish Cup Morton 0-1 Celtic 2008-09 League Cup Morton 1-2 Inverness (after extra time) We haven't seen a major semi final since 1980-81 (Scottish Cup), a major final since 1963-64 (League Cup) and a Challenge Cup Final since 1992-93.

El gofer Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 beaten to the punch there! It is an issue though. The falling attenedances and general disillusionmnet. I reckon there is a fair share of the support who would take a cup run to promotion. Raith have goalscorers and a settled team. Stenny are probably still celerbating Irons leaving! 20.1.09 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alibi Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 I always thought Brian Graham was a decent player - the goal I particularly remember was one he score against Cowdenbeath at the Sinclair St end where he did about 5 dragbacks to fool the keeper and a defender before the ball went in the net. "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."

He also had an eye for a pass to slip a colleague in on goal. When he was with us he was not the finished article but there was something there and I was sorry but not brokenhearted when he left.
