To be honest, last two or three times he's came on he looked to me like he was holding back. Barely got by a man and generally looked to just get through games. Clearly still a recurring injury. This is what happened to him at QP; out more than in. We've been lucky to avoid it up til now TIME FOR CHANGE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
montheton Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 Do you think that the new lad Davies could be a replacement for Jai? Sure I seen that he can play in that position as well as up front. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pedrodelawasp Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 Quitongo just doesn’t seem to be able to get a clean run of fitness. When he has played this season he’s not seemed anything like his old self either. He doesn’t appear to be moving freely or comfortably, and the acceleration and sprint speed that were his main weapons aren’t on tap as the once were. A young guy who should be in his peak years. Got to wonder whether he’ll be able to shake the chronic issues and hope it won’t have long term impacts for him beyond his playing days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunning1874 Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 I don't think we should get carried away about new signings being potential replacements for Quitongo or anyone else. His injury history is well known and he's inevitably going to have seasons where his fitness breaks down and it's very stop start. The hope is that with the rest of the squad fit again and loanees back with us rather than the widespread injury crisis we faced earlier in the season, he can take as long as he needs to recover properly with ample cover in his position rather than us desperately needing him back they way it felt in October & November. It's why I'd be wary of too many players leaving on loan, for all that it would benefit their development; we're not too many injuries away from finding ourselves short again. I certainly wouldn't be writing his career off at this point for all that I might be writing off this season. Anyway looking at today, you'd hope Imrie specifically calling out the team being complacent against Montrose will mean there's no risk of that today despite Arbroath's injury crisis. Importance of keeping pace in the chase for the promotion playoffs aside, despite our recent improvement we could still end up only 3 points off 9th with a defeat today, whereas a win realistically banishes any prospect of 10th. 1 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...
SassenachTon Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 I believe that Arbroath have 13 players out injured, including the majority of their first-choice starting XI. I also believe that their team today will be scraped together using many players who’ll be out of their usual positions, and the only bench they’ll have available consists of two sub keepers. I can’t think of a better opportunity for us to deliver a ruthless, clinical performance which not only generates three points, but also improves our GD by some margin.

Mr.Blue Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 Looking like it was that cunt Stanways tackle that has injured Jai.

Wouldn't get carried away with this either. I recall Allan McGraw asking for games v Dunfermline and Airdrie to be postponed due to our injury situation at the time. As usual the League refused on the basis that we had 11 fit players. Ian Mcdonald played despite being injured and, IIRC, we signed John Anderson from the juniors to make up numbers. Again, IIRC, we got two draws, so nothing is a forgone conclusion, although, I hope you're right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.

Mr.Blue Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 Stupidity from Jacobs there. 2 fouls in quick succession.

Popular Post vikingTON Posted January 27 Popular Post Share Posted January 27 Same sloppy level of performance as last week so far. If Power makes a foul then the referee will be under pressure to even the game at ten men each - so I'd put Blues there for now and bring on an actual wide player. The defenders - especially Baird and O'Connor - need to drive forward with the ball when under Jo pressure, instead of just shelling it 50 yards up the park. 3 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...
