This is really great news! Actually found out with STV News on in the background earlier and the club badge came up on screen, wasn't expecting this so soon after the last update! I think this could genuinely be the best news many Morton fans have had in a long time. We've witnessed quite a few false dawns as a support over the last 20 years since Douglas Rae stepped in to save the Club; with some fleeting moments of joy along the way of course. More than a few charlatans coming in and offering their expertise for hire but ultimately being chancers only interested in their own advancement. Hopefully no more. It has felt like hundreds, if not thousands, of floating fans had gone for good. After being let down time and time again. I really hope that, despite the very uneven performances lately that things can improve and that, whatever the weather, we can get in a good crowd for Arbroath on Saturday. Like a fair few other folk, I had been very reluctant up until now to join, but I have happily signed up for MCT tonight. I don't think anybody is expecting miracles overnight, but with good people using their skills, for the most part voluntarily and with just a sincere interest in doing right by Morton as their motivation, surely we can have real cause for optimism. Hopefully the start of something special. Well done to everybody who has worked so hard to inch this closer and closer to fruition. C'mon the Ton!

Congratulations to all involved, but having witnessed so many false dawns over the years my optimism is firmly in the 'cautious' category. While I'm glad it's finally done and dusted, I still have my concerns about the long term viability of fan ownership, especially as many of those heavily involved are doing it only on a free-time basis, and with a part-time general manager. It goes without saying that I hope these concerns prove to be unfounded and we go from strength-to-strength, but at this minute I'm far from 100% convinced. More than happy to give the guys the benefit of the doubt for the meantime though, and of course I wish them all the best.

I don't really have any issues with the MCT people being volunteers but I'd feel a lot more comfortable if we had more paid staff running the club business. If we hire wisely then they'd pay for themselves.

I know it's been a struggle to reach this point but I'm grateful and glad that we can now take responsibility for the future of Morton. Thrilled this has been achieved while I'm still breathing. Well done to all involved.

Real Madrid getting pumped by Sheriff Tiraspol was some laugh. Get it up them.
