Alibi Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 Kalvin Orsi has scored against Queens three times already this season. Should at least have him on the bench for this one. "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."

I was thinking pushing Lyon up a bit further would give us more urgency. Nesbitt needs a rest. There's a storm on the horizon And for that I can't see the sun For I'll keep a waiting on the pavement For the ice cream van to come Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mcadams Ledger, mclean, fjortoft, strapp Mcginn, Jacobs Colville, lyon, mcguffie Sterling I don't think it's a must win in that regard. That's impossible to know, really. It all depends on Arbroath's results, and I'm hopeful that they won't be that great. Ideally we go into the penultimate match of the season above them, and avoid that being a must win match, a point today will hopefully take us another point away from them. Three points would be very helpful, though, and I think we need to play another forward of we want the best chance of doing that. I can see the desire there to fit all the best midfield players in, but on a bumpy pitch with defenders who already like a long ball, I think we need more immediate support for Stirling to give us our best chance.   Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikingTON Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 I'm not seeing a better chance of getting three points before the penultimate game, so if we're not getting a win today then we'll be fortunate to not be in 9th by that point. 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. You can all feel happy at how 'clever' you are Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunning1874 Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 Not being able to control anyone else's results, we should just be looking at how we reach points total that is likely to make us safe. Realistically, if we want to avoid needing a result at Arbroath on the last day then we have to be looking for nine points from our three home games other than Hearts. It's not guaranteed relegation if we don't, but we're already favourites for 9th and dropping more points today would leave us absolutely no margin for error. Everyone around us has been winning games while we've managed 1 in 12. If it's another without a win today then we've got a run of Raith away, ICT at home, Dundee away and Hearts at home before those final two. Realistically the only one of those we're winning is ICT, and dropping points today would mean we'd likely be going into that game on the back of 1 win in 14, then possibly needing to turn that form into three wins in five games. This team would crack under that pressure. Wins today and v ICT could have us going into those last two games in a decent position, but if we don't win today then the pressure is going to be massively on.

For all we’re not at the must win stage yet, a fixture like this sticks out like a sore thumb when you’re looking at potential sources of points. We won’t have many better opportunities and really have to be looking at a win today as the minimum requirement before we’re looking for snookers.

Four points in those two games wouldn't be a disaster, realistically that would be a decent return considering our troubles at home this year. So obviously not winning today builds the pressure, and we really wouldn't want that pressure to build even more going into the last two games (either of those games being actually must-win wouldn't be good at all). I wouldn't want to downplay the importance of winning today. That should be the aim, and the team should be picked accordingly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGoon Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 Darren Hynes will appear for us once every season until he’s 35. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevie Aitken's Love Child Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 If Hynes can provide width and get up the pitch to support the attack, which isn't Ledger's game, then great, but it's a huge gamble bringing him in from nowhere to start.

dunning1874 Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 Well, it's certainly a bold move. Dropping two of the few players who've actually been playing well in McGuffie & Lyon along with a competent defensive performer in Ledger while players who haven't performed keep their places,flinging Hynes in from nowhere and changing system to the back five we tried a fair bit earlier in the season and failed to a win a game with. It's a hell of a gamble to take and we can't afford it not working immediately.

port-ton Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 Had to check twitter as I thought livescore had made a mistake with Hynes as they had mcalister instead of mcginn last week. Didn't even know he was still with us. Our two recent signings have been the most pointless ever. To be an attacking player who can't get in this side is hard to do. Good people will do good things, bad people will do bad things, but only with religion do good people do bad things!  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
