Match Preview/Thread - Airdrieonians vs Morton (Playoff Final 18th/21st May)

[TRVMP]

That was some fackin' cross. McLean was it? Nice header too, got in between two defenders.

We could have had a few but 1 is better than nothing. Well done the lads, airdrie didnt look all that.

[Hej]

We just about deserved that. Airdrie are gash, they're like a lesser version of us. 

[vikingTON]

Good win but the more pleasing element is just how badly Airdrie fell out of the game in the last twenty minutes, they looked done physically.

Start Nesbitt and McGuffie and just run at them all night until they fold (as a club again, with any luck). 

[ChampTon]

Muirhead's ability never in doubt. Pler. 

Lyon toiled well when coming on, thought he was going to cement us a 2 nil lead going into Friday. 

Nesbitt and McGuffie on from the start, let's bury these Nazi bastards.

Fair play on grinding that out. Hopefully Friday’s a bit more open and as VT says we just run right over the top of them.

Muirhead can't even fucking play a 5 yard pass and kills the chance of a counter attack. Prick

Ahem! Thought BIg Marcus and Gary Oliver stood out tonight!

[TaunTon]

Happy with the result but christ almighty that was eye bleeding stuff. Expected more from Airdrie given their recent form but they looked very ordinary and Fox never had an easier night.

Defence looked fine, midfield meh, up front total shite. So not much change from normal.

Perfectly poised for a classic Morton shame game on Friday.

[Jamie_M]

Thought that was well deserved and we missed some great chances, could have been comfortable.

Good to go into Friday with a lead. Airdrie will have to go for it and tire themselves out even quicker.

Neither can Strapp in truth...over-hits everything.

[Nornirontons]

Well when you look at Montrose compared to that lot....not to many problems caused and the only player youd take is already a championship player.....where as Montrose had much more potential on show for me.

I'm expecting a much better atmosphere at cappielow and I think that'll see us over the line

JTA   dont think Muirhead will be on corner duties

It was a problem for half the team, close control and short passes are overhit. Salkeld's bad for it, Nesbitt as well. No idea why.

Ferguson and McFadden both basically said their pitch was shocking.....lower league sides never water them or look after them properly

[Madton]

Still wondering why the hell McLean was out there in the 1st place for a short corner,  some ball in.

Fully deserved,  should have scored more. Score first on Friday and that's it. They were poor.

Which is why we need to be fired up for Friday.Whatever Airdrie have left...they are going to throw at us in the first 20/30 minutes on Friday.We need to be switched on from the get go.

He was off getting treatment. Came back on in acres of space so seized the opportunity. 

[Drew Busby's Moustache]

Concerned about Jacobs.He's getting on in footballing terms and will find it increasingly difficult to bounce back from injury as he might have 10 years ago.
