RossMcC1874 Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 Will be great to be back at the football again. Hopefully a good performance and win against this shower. A lot of new faces so will be interesting to see how we line up still feel we are a few bodies light but not heard any more rumours so that might be us but who know.

so72 Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 1 sub...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
port-ton Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 That's a first for me even by mortons standards. 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...
dunning1874 Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 Bloody hell. So that's Baird, O'Connor Lithgow, Jacobs, Gillespie, Muirhead and Easdale all missing. Strapp and Hynes at centre back, McGrattan in the middle and Kabia & Garrity off Quitongo in a 4-3-3?

AyrshireTon Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 That has to be a mistake. 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.

EanieMeany Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 Good grief. Even with a lot of players unavailable, there really needs to be several more additions in the coming weeks. AWMSC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hej Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 Good greif. One sub would be an embarrassment at under 13 boys club level, never mind in a professional match. Tinpot AF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
so72 Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 Thats just not good enough at this stage in pre-season. To not even have a few regens or 16year olds including a keeper is an embarrassment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chesh Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 Embarrassing. How have so many players ended up Injured in pre season? Im making perfect sense, your just not keeping up.My Twitter - https://twitter.com/RJChesh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cet Homme Charmant Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 Do you think Sir Douglas may be making a point to the board about the size of the squad? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaunTon Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 Wasn't expecting to be so threadbare before our first competitive game but I suppose Dougie still has some special pleading to do with the board. However whoever is playing just get the perennial failures hunted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The far more likely explanation is that in addition to the already known injury for Lithgow and suspensions for Baird & Gillespie, O'Connor, Jacobs, Muirhead and Easdale are also all injured too. Making a point in the dead rubber at Arbroath is one thing; deliberately leaving anyone out of the squad for this game to only have one sub would be an absolutely disgraceful thing for a manager to do and I don't believe it for a second.

Yeah, I suspect you're right. Surprised though he didn't have at least few youth players on the bench in case of injuries. Here's hoping there's still enough money left in the budget though to bring in a few more bodies, because we're bound to have similar periods of injuries and suspensions the course of the season.

We need a cheap keeper for the bench and still surely have a few loans to come in. A starting striker, winger and versatile defensive cover at the minimum.

RossMcC1874 Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 Yeah one sub on the bench is pretty abysmal and not even a sub keeper is worrying. Definitely need more bodies in the door even barring injuries and suspensions that's poor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyrshireTon Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 We’ve narrowed the pitch, I see. 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.
