All sorted now. Next season we will be sharing the league with -

Arbroath

Ayr United

Dunfermline

Inverness Caledonian Thistle

Livingston

Partick Thistle (shame, that)

Queen's Park

Raith Rovers

Stenhousemuir

 

Fresh stain on the floor when I moved in. He may have checked out short of a useful amount of blood.

A bit like a couple of years ago, a lot of teams will be thinking "yeah, that's a doable league".

Hopefully Stenny get pumped weekly without their manager which would give us a bit of safety if things go south with Murray.

Livingston will be spending a fortune this season, they're now owned by Henry Ford's great-great grandson who has not been shy in talking about spending. Still need to appoint a manager of course so hopefully it could all implode like Ross County did, but on budget alone you'd put them among the early favourites.

We know Dunfermline are also throwing stupid money around while it would be nice if Partick's bubble finally popped. I still think we really needed the latter to happen over the last season though, there's a reasonable chance they'll actually have made a profit for the first time since relegation this season, but they will have something of a minor rebuild required with Stanway, Chalmers and Fitzpatrick likely away. Dunfermline will likely need a rebuild too with a lot of players out of contract so hopefully there's room for a big spending implosion in there.

Inverness sign Graeme Shinnie from Aberdeen. 

Good people will do good things, bad people will do bad things, but only with religion do good people do bad things!

This news has somehow been interpreted as sure fire evidence ‘we are in the sh*t’ over on fans’ FB group…

You don't understand. The most logical geographical move an aging player can make is actually a statement of intent by the receiving club. 

MCT must condemn. 

It's both though, as he's not going to be playing there for anything other than a hefty wage (one that Inverness - surprise! - won't be able to actually afford). 

That a section of our fanbase still hold a candlelit vigil for An Ambitious Backer after our last white knight threw their toys out of the pram and demanded that total duds like Laird be imposed on the club indefinitely is a separate category of fail.

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

The Partick documentary on STV player is well worth a watch purely for Brian Graham, comedy gold!

Yeah if you ever thought he couldn't look even more of a prick the documentary highlights he is just that and more, even his own teammates cant stand him.

Yeah I really enjoyed the documentary. It is lovely watching it knowing that they don’t go up too which adds to the joy. I didn’t actually realise how bad they were that season, they had so many poor results and still scraped into 4th.

As expected, Brian Graham comes across a total fud and have seen a few partick fans saying this too.

It is worth watching just for the scenes in Dingwall alone.

Stenhousemuir have appointed Marvin Bartley. Hopefully goes as well as his previous jobs and they're a distant 10th, would be good to have the cushion.

Partick at home to open the season.

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

I like having the last game away to make a weekend of it, but Raith is a rubbish way to end the season.

An overnight stay in Inverness on Friday to avoid a clash with a Scotland away game on the Saturday however? Very much appreciated.

Decent enough start playing 3 fellow relegation candidates in the first 5. Hopefully put some points on the board early doors.

Board will be happy with Partick at home 1st game, should be a good crowd.

Are we clear relegation candidates with Stenny, a skint Queens Park, Inverness and an ageing Arbroath side in the league? We're obviously cutting our cloth this season after wasting a lot of money but I'd say the league looks weaker overall.

Queens Park dont appear to have significantly reduced their budget from what i can see. Signed a lot of players on 2 year deals and remaining full time. There's talk that they've sold Lesser Hampden.

Do they still have Willie Haughey financing them?

They were always going to fall upwards. Seen something a while back lesser hampden was going to be used as base for celtic/rangers & glasgow city as a shared facility. This would have been sold for the exact blackhole that Haughey was leaving.
