so72 Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 Hopkin targetting 5 or 6 more including 3/4 centre backs.

Mr.Blue Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 4 centre backs seems a lot. I'm assuming we'll sign 2/3 outright centre backs and possibly another who can slot in there and maybe play full back too?

port-ton Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 I wouldn't be at all surprised to see Kilday come back at some point later in the summer if he's not found a new club.

vikingTON Posted June 15, 2019 Share Posted June 15, 2019 Under sell, over achieve, and look like a baller. Simple human instinctExcept that they’re not actually underselling to their customers - they now want £300 for a season ticket and a further £120 through their guilt trip, not at all associated fans’ scheme. That is by far the biggest commitment asked for in this league. I’m fine with the club not making serious moves in the transfer market until at least the MCT venture is concluded, but if they’re planning to use the current plucky wee permadiddy line afterwards then it isn’t going to end well. They’re getting far above the required support to fund a credible Championship football team and I expect them to use it wisely. The site is supposed to be a place for the extended 'family' of Morton supporters - having an affinity with people that you don't know, because you share a love of your local football club. It's not supposed to be about point scoring and showing how 'clever' or 'funny' you are, or just being downright rude and offensive to people you don't know, because you can get away with it. Unfortunately, it seems the classic case of people who have little standing/presence in real life, use this forum as a way of making themselves feel as if they are something. It's sad, and I've said that before.. So, having been on Morton forums for about 15 years I guess, I've had enough... well done t*ssers, another Morton supporter driven away.

TONofmemories Posted June 15, 2019 Share Posted June 15, 2019 Would see so. If rumours are to be believed we offered comp for the boy Lang. A struggling club doesn't agree that TIME FOR CHANGE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikingTON Posted June 15, 2019 Share Posted June 15, 2019 He was playing for Clyde so it’s no serious stretch at all for a professional football club.Let’s never forget that we spent £15k on a similar seaside league side player like Tony Wallace as well. The proof is in the credibility and wages of first team players and not some random jobbers that we waste money on anyway.

vikingTON Posted June 15, 2019 Share Posted June 15, 2019 We can still pay the hilariously nominal compensation for a seaside league player though, in the same way that money was magically found to redevelop Cappielow as soon as a manager wanted to train there.

capitanus Posted June 15, 2019 Share Posted June 15, 2019 I reckon that some of these players will turn out to be good players for us. I'm quite confident about the season ahead. *insert signature here* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately I am an optimist and disappointment comes with monotonous regularity. But next season will, of course be different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’re getting far above the required support to fund a credible Championship football team and I expect them to use it wisely. That's it in a nutshell VT. I would have normally renewed my season ticket by now, but the MCT scheme has thrown me a curve ball! Add to that your point on the low expectations being trotted out, and I'm at a bit of a loss as to where to pledge my cash, as I don't really want to fund both options. If this applies to other fans then we're in a bit of a pickle. I'm tempted to go for MCT and pay as I go at the matches I can make it to. Although I've got a feeling the season ticket option is a more solid investment towards the club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ton in Shawlands Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 Felt the same & opted for the season ticket. I'll probably miss a few games but it's a commitment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madton Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 I keep hoping we are going to make a few exciting signings and then I'd probably get a season ticket on the back of that but not happened to date and now looking more and more unlikely. If we do get Nesbitt, that would certainly be a bit more encouraging. Club have majorly fecked up IMO by not offering an early bird discount or allowing installments. Doesn't give fans any incentive to part with their cash. Would be amazed if we have sold more than 200. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
