Stevie Aitken's Love Child Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Last one for tonight - and a particular favourite of mine. Remember this one like it was yesterday actually. I recall thinking we were going to go on and challenge for the league, lo and behold within a coupld of months Scott had flogged Kevin Thomas for pennies, the cowshed was lying ripped to bits, and things started to fall apart.

AyrshireTon Posted February 12, 2013 Author Share Posted February 12, 2013 i have all of these that you have shone on a dvd somewhere i am sure its got dundee utd at home think dundee utd won 4-0 ,dumbarton won 3-2 think it was the same seaon we beat celtic 2-1, also got loads of the football first highlights Think you and I have a lot of the same stuff. Axeman had a lot of the really old games on beta (I've not given up on posting them yet) and myself and another mate (think his last username was Big Hutchie) transferred them to VHS. Years later I transferred from VHS to DVD, taking the opportunity to put things chronologically. Am doing the wins first, or the games with several goals. The defeats (which, sadly, are more numerous) can wait. 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.

Mr H Palms Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Man.....that Celtic game. I was there and LOVED that day. I went with my old man my uncle and granda, who were all mad tic fans, we were all in the cowshed as i was rightly brought up a morton fan by my family and was too young to go with my mates. I never let them forget that day, and as muz says i LOVED that day. One of my favourite Morton games ever. sigs are for fuds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muz Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 There was a girl in my class who loved Mo Johnston, and just about everyone else bar one or two were Celtic fans. Only kids but god I smiled that Monday at School. Jim Gillespie :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cskasofia Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 We really had a great record against Aberdeen and Dundee Utd in the late 70's/ early 80's. All the more remarkable when you remember how good both these sides were in Europe at the time. A game v Aberdeen, I remember watching on Sportscene , was a Scottish Cup game about 78 at Pittodrie. We were 2-0 down with a minute to go, but managed to get it back to 2-2. I suppose this would have pre-dated even betamax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyrshireTon Posted February 13, 2013 Author Share Posted February 13, 2013 Here's the Quarter Final cup tie from 1989. Wylie and McInnes look so young in this one.

SramTon Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 And now here we are getting our arses handed to us in the Premier Division by....Dumbarton. This was the first game I missed. I'd been to every home game since the match against Killie on the last day of the previous season (my first game), but missed this one due to the IBM Employee's children's disco at the Port Town Hall. Look at her riding pillions on Davy’s sea-bike, carrying an apoplectic macaw in a silver hoop. Oh, Morton, let’s go there this winter! Or learning the Japanese chinchona from that Kobe group, in a dress that looks like a blowtorch rising from one knee, and which should sell big in Texas. Morton, is that real fire? Happy, happy little girl! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was probably at the same disco. Got a free single cos I fell on my arse doing the can-can (Bad Manners version) That Killie game is in the pipeline.

WeegieTon Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Another derby from the Premier Division. Apologies for the quality - tracking these when copying from Beta to VHS years ago was a bugger. See the Honey Monster score! Watching that at work with the sound turned down, was that a young Steve Clarke who brought down Peanut for the second penalty from a tackle that looks suspiciously outside the box? If you have a problem with me, text me. If you dont have my number then you don't know me well enough to have a problem with me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WeegieTon Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Man.....that Celtic game. I was there and LOVED that day. Me to Muz. I was to stay at my grans that night as my mum and dad were out for my mums birthday. Was soaked as i stood behind the Sinclair Street goal. Got the train to the West Station, fish supper from Orangefield chippy then up to my grans on a total high and the game was on Sportscene that night to. Brilliant memories. That strip is one of my all time favourite Morton Strips. Was made by Pony. If you have a problem with me, text me. If you dont have my number then you don't know me well enough to have a problem with me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeegieTon Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 And now here we are getting our arses handed to us in the Premier Division by....Dumbarton. That game should be xrated The guy Simpson that scored, was that Jimmy Simpson who later signed for us and was crocked by a horrendous tackle from Ian Westwater?

WeegieTon Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Here's the Quarter Final cup tie from 1989. Wylie and McInnes look so young in this one. Brilliant Alex O'Hara giving away the penalty, I think that's the same year he lobbed the cat with about 30 seconds to go in the Renfrewshire Cup Final at Cappielow and lost us the cup. Was never so angry at a Morton player. Psycho getting sent off The guy with the dodgy specs burying his head in his hands after the penalty save then jumping the wall after the goal was scored by Dougie, class Well done AT, some fantastic trips down memory lane there If you have a problem with me, text me. If you dont have my number then you don't know me well enough to have a problem with me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
