  1. Fair fucks to whoever let off the fireworks in the car park at full time. Outstanding work.
  2. Excellent news. I don't think it's a coincidence that our performances and results improved as he gained match sharpness.
  3. I'd be fully in favour of trying to get MacDonald off the books and bringing in a player on a lesser wage to deputise for Mullen for the rest of the season. I'd imagine MacDonald is quite a high earner so if we can use it to benefit us in other positions I'd be all for it.
  4. Even for this dank corner of the internet's standards, this thread is grim.
  5. I'd love to see Iain Wilson signing beyond his loan spell. I'm hoping that come February 1st we're sticking a pre-contact in front of him. He's been excellent in the last couple of months.
  6. Unfortunately that was inevitable. The angle of the highlights didn't show a clear enough view of the incident to clear him. Grant Irvine's card is definitely marked.
  7. I heard it was Dream Oak Tree that was camped out in mysterious 'blind room' all these years. At night he also turns the centre circle into a landing pad for Ed de Ball's helicopter.
  8. It is a massive conflict of interests. I'd assumed when taking the role of chairman that Laird had stepped away from agency work. Acting as a consultant to the board was an excellent set-up, whereby the club gained footballing expertise and contacts, with no votes being cast by someone who has skin in the game other than the best interests of Greenock Morton. I'm not suggesting that the chairman has, or indeed ever will, act or vote in anything other than the best interests of the club, but this blurring of lines is unacceptable and sets a precedent that could easily be abused in the future. The idea that the person with the deciding vote in the boardroom, and who acts as a figurehead of the club, has the potential to behave as a lobbyist on behalf of certain players and managers is a clear conflict of interests. I know the restrictions surrounding agents are far less restrictive than they are for players and coaches, but the idea of John Laird the chairman negotiating a deal with John Laird the agent for the services of a player such as Lewis Strapp is ludicrous. I know that Laird also represents Michael Tidser, so I can't wait to see him heavily linked with the managerial vacancy once Imrie moves on. I'd like to see this position clarified by MCT or the club immediately.
  9. If Strapp turns in another few performances like he did on Tuesday night I'd imagine he will have a few offers in January.
  10. Aye, that's a cracking result. Arbroath's form is dreadful at the moment. Terrible wee shame.
  11. A huge result with some excellent individual performances in there. Oakley and Strapp were phenomenal, but Wilson was MOTM for me. He's been outstanding in the last month or so. Also, the improvement in Strapp's long throws is clear, they are now a consistent threat.
  12. It's another big match. I'd suggest we need four points between tonight and Saturday.
  13. I've been to Germany four times and never had an issue, I can only imagine they will be pulling out all the stops during the Euros to ensure public transport runs without a hitch.
  14. Having to travel across a country with great transport and great beer, with your mates, in the height of summer, watching Scotland? I'm struggling to think of a downside.
