  1. Thank you all for your kind words.
  2. Hi all, I wanted to share the heartbreaking news that my Dad, Alastair Barron, or who most of you will know on this forum as Alibi, died suddenly earlier this week. I know many of you on here knew my Dad and interacted with him often, whether it was on this forum or at the games. He was a Morton man through and through and will be so missed.
  3. I know and I agree.
  4. I’d imagine Imrie will be off to Partick and with the sponsorship deal not taking place for another 10 days, out of contract players likely away with the shitshow behind the scenes and a new managerial search inevitable, it’s a disastrous start to the new season. Just when you think we have the basis of a squad that can properly challenge for top 4 next season, this happens. Sigh.
  5. Was always going to be a big ask so I’m not too bothered. From where this team was at the beginning of November and to be safe with 6 games to go is an achievement in itself.
  6. We’ve had some decent keepers over the last 20 or so years but I’d put Mullen as the best keeper we’ve had in my time supporting the club. There should be no question marks about him being our #1 and signing on again for another season.
  7. So frustrating but it’s hard to be critical of the team when they dug deep to score three goals after a calamitous first 20 minutes. The first 20 minutes was a tactical disasterclass. I’ve no idea what the tactics were but Garrity and Shaw playing central midfield, giving their full backs all the space in the world, and giving Vaughan and Gullan acres of space was not it. Once we switched formation it was much better and solid and thereafter Raith didn’t really threaten at all. Adeloye was shit but he gets a goal. He’s been better in other games but that’s fine by me. The promotion playoffs were such a long shot anyway and to be still in contention with 6 games to go, after the start we had, is a fucking incredible testament to Dougie and the squad. To have a chance, Saturday is a must win.
  8. Crawford and Blues were excellent. They popped up everywhere. Adeloye’s first touch to take it round the defender was exceptional. If he stays fit he’ll be fantastic for us. Job done. Win/draw against Raith and it gets very interesting…
  9. Jesus wept - just seen their ‘statement’. Still taking no accountability whatsoever I see….
  10. Tremendous scenes. Keay was outstanding. Great finish and then great play to win the free kick. The sheer joy on his face when he celebrated was great. 1st half was shocking but much better in the 2nd half. Three home games in a row and looking upwards. The Hamilton fans waiting by the Morton bus and fighting in the car park at the end, get it so fucking far up them.
  11. Fantastic win. 2nd half compared to last week was night and day. Loved the Cowshed yesterday - properly behind the team, no booing when things weren’t going too well in the first half and a great reception at full time for a deserved win.
  12. End of the day, don’t start fights with the opposition fans and then you’ll be fine to attend games. That statement and victim mentality in the comments of the Twitter post is quite funny. I quite like the older guys with the drum. They create a good atmosphere but seemed recently they’ve been taken over by these wee guys singing about Morton Hooligans.
  13. Bid for Garrity by Crusaders accepted by the club but apparently he’s turned it down.
  14. Apparently us, Airdrie and East Fife are in for Ricco Diack on loan from Partick. Could be rubbish but was from a pretty good source…. I hope it’s nonsense.
  15. In my opinion, the best player we have had in my time supporting the club. Would be a kick in the balls to see him go to Ayr. I imagine the wages would be a problem but if there's a chance we could tempt him then we should be all over it.
