Popular Post dunning1874 Posted September 16 Popular Post Share Posted September 16 Great point in a game where a defeat was expected. Vital to stop the rot with two winnable games coming up and hopefully that's hopefully a big confidence boost going into that. 3 Brian Wake my Lord, Brian Wake Brian Wake my Lord, Brian Wake Brian Wake my Lord, Brian Wake Oh Lord, Brian Wake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post vikingTON Posted September 16 Popular Post Share Posted September 16 3 hours ago, Scott said: Same here, but that’s a missed opportunity for all 3. Putting Gillespie and Wilson on killed all the momentum we had and brought pressure back on ourselves. We just lost our last two league games by a collective scoreline of 1-7, at home, to significantly worse sides (on paper at least) than Dundee United. The only thing required right now is to try and stop that rot and it has happened a week (or two) sooner than could be reasonably expected. Couldn't give a toss about a missed opportunity for 3 points - getting 1 up there is a big step in the right direction. 7 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...

However 30 minutes v 10 men and we ended up needing the woodwork and goalie to get us the point. So you're talking nonsense. 5 games, 3 at home and 1 win. That's relegation form and draws won't move us up the league. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyrshireTon Posted September 17 Share Posted September 17 Dundee United fans having a real meltdown on Twitter/X today. 1 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.

Have been following Ton for over 50 years and the standard of championship football is as poor as I can remember. I was optimistic after our opening day fixture v Ayr but that has quickly dissipated especially after Ayrs other results. It seems that Imrie much prefers experienced players which isn't my idea of how a club like Morton should operate. McDonald was a needless signing as was Broadfoot. I wonder how much of our limited budget was spent on those two. Anyway I hope you're bang on about your seasons prediction. Just can't see it myself. 1 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GiGi Posted September 17 Share Posted September 17 Hopefully this works at the timestamp but 5 minutes exactly if not. Goodwin asking the referee to pay close mind to our defence at set pieces to look for penalties. Glad that worked out for him. Peter Weatherson is the greatest player since Ritchie, and should be assigned 'chairman for life' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Toby Posted September 17 Popular Post Share Posted September 17 3 hours ago, AyrshireTon said: Dundee United fans having a real meltdown on Twitter/X today. Indeed. My favourite so far has been the guy in his late forties labelling Calum Waters a wanker because his Twitter account is protected (I never even knew Waters had a Twitter account). Absolute wrong 'un behaviour off the bat. An awful lot to take out of yesterday's game, but I have to admit I was surprised in the United fans' reaction when I read it. Having driven my mate back to Greenock then driven home to EK it was about 9pm by the time I saw any reaction, and I was quite taken aback by quite how angry it was, and how much of it there was to the game. Maybe it was because I saw it all after four hours without looking at my phone, rather than being drip-fed it. Thought we played some decent stuff yesterday, very much like the second half against Raith, which we completely dominated. As GiGi points out, Goodwin was quick to alert Munro to what he sees as our underhand tactics, but I do wonder if that game played on his mind. Brass neck of a guy who had a twenty-year career as an absolute hatchet man. Complete folly from Broadfoot to get into the wrestling match with Moult which could've resulted in a penalty, although Broadfoot gesticulating that Moult had him by the baws doesn't really fit in with the "dark arts" narrative that appears exclusive only to Morton. Munro struck me as unwilling to make any decision at all unless forced, such was his failure to give penalties at either end of the park, and the fact the linesman alerted him to Cudjoe's elbow suggests that the referee's hand was very much forced. Probably a red, and doesn't show Waters in the best of lights for milking minimal contact, but refreshing to see a linesman actually getting involved in a game at this level. It's years since I last saw that. Of course, whilst he didn't throw cards around like confetti yesterday as he did in Kirkcaldy, he completely lost control at the game (like he did in Kirkcaldy)- a sure sign of a poor referee that can't get the balance right between being too lenient and too harsh. How on earth he's on the FIFA list I'll never know. The Dundee United support strike me as an extremely angry mob. I've got a lot of mates who support them, but they're generally from the west, so perhaps not indicative of their support as a whole. These folk on the east aren't to be trusted. I suspect there's a lot of frustration hanging over not only from last season's humiliation but from years of underachievement. They look like a club that's in a bad, bad way, with internal wranglings behind the scenes and a miserable support. I suspect that their reaction to yesterday isn't helped by their decline and the fact that "teams like Morton" aren't just turning up to watch them put on a show. Also, and it's maybe a bit hypocritical for a Morton fan to say it given that most away fans don't enjoy visiting Cappielow, but Tannadice is a really shit awayday. £25 is at least better than the £27 we expected to pay, but one small section open for an admittedly small support, a cramped bog with one sink and no hand drying facilities, a tiny, over priced pie stall which doesn't take cash and is understaffed, and banning away fans from taking a drum, preventing them from creating any atmosphere, in a week that they made steps to improve it for home fans smacks of a club who not only see away fans as an inconvenience, but as a necessary evil that they'd happily not allow in if they could get away with it. Finally, Alan Power was magnificent. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRVMP Posted September 17 Share Posted September 17 It's as clear a red as you'll see for Cudjoe. A deliberate and calculated sly elbow on the face. Broadfoot did get away with it and in a VAR situation - like Ibrox - he wouldn't have done. We were well worth the point and the "Urubs" and their commentary team can get fucked. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For clarity, the incident I was referring to was the one in the first half when Moult and Broadfoot were booked, rather than the shirt-pulling incident.

Mr.Blue Posted September 17 Share Posted September 17 Fuck Jim Goodwin, fuck Dundee United and fuck those greetin faced cunts who are crying out for the red to be rescinded and calling out Waters on social media. Big bad morton at it again. Can't wait to get this mob down at Cappielow. Should be a tasty affair. 2 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...
DreamOakTree Posted September 18 Share Posted September 18 I must admit my joy at signing a decent right back was also because I hoped it would mean Broadfoot dropping onto the bench and our solid CB partnership of Baird and O’Connor would return. I did have a nagging worry though that Dougie has a blind spot towards Broadfoot (and Wilson for that matter). We can only hope Broadfoot continues to receive yellow cards and his suspension will see our best CB partnership restored. 1 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
