Manager of the Month for Imrie as well. We're back.

Blues has won Player of the Month for December. Well deserved.

If Partick are loaning Diack out it won't be to another Championship club, and if it was it certainly wouldn't be to us where he'd be sitting on the bench behind Stuparevic. If he goes out on loan he'll be dropping down a division or two in order to start games, any attacking player we bring in is coming in as cover.

Good with this decision, with the forecast suggesting it's got no chance on Saturday and Sunday being a far better option than a midweek (the Hamilton game is now 18th February). Inevitably it will inconvenience some people but they've announced it early enough in the week for it to be fair enough, and we could really be doing without going three weeks without a game, completely trampling our momentum.

A competent groundsman could have made the pitch playable when there was absolutely no reason for a pitch being given the slightest bit of protection to be unplayable today, so that's something the club could have done. Agree on the timing though, 12 was a perfectly reasonable time for an inspection.

Sold out hospitality lost for a big game where the team had some momentum, for a midweek game where we won't be able to sell any and our form might have turned by that time. Shitshow for the club financially, which should have never have happened in these weather conditions.

Ah, we've been stung by the weirdness of Hamilton having multiple twitter accounts. The one Scott Struthers runs announced it 3 minutes earlier.

Once again the away team communicate it before Morton do. Yet another dereliction of duty from the General Manager.

Yeah, it's not as much of an issue for run of the mill league games but when it comes to games like Motherwell and Hearts, especially if Dale is clinging to a ludicrously small capacity for the Cowshed that he made up to account for the gantry, then the extra space that would provide would be really useful.

If that area is generally going to sit empty anyway with home fans unable to use it, then I see it as a similar thing to Arbroath not letting us behind the goal last season. That was considerably more ridiculous because when they eventually relented and allowed us to stand there - worth noting that was through persistent questions rather than attacking stewards like some - it still didn't put us anywhere near the home fans whereas Tuesday led to trouble, but the same principle applies. Whether it should be closed to home fans is another matter, but if it is then I see no issue with away fans being in there. The issue comes with televised games, as that space is where the BBC put their pundits. Do you just take it as a trade off that it's available for normal games but for the two or three televised games a season it isn't?

Obviously wins at home to Partick are a thing we should generally expect more often than not, while wins at Tannadice absolutely are not, but I think that's my favourite late winner of 2024 regardless. Cowshed hasn't exploded like that in a while. I said it a few times 10-11 months ago but despite the overall performance of the team as a whole not being at the same level as then, Cammy Blues right now might be rivalling the start of the year for his best run of form as a Morton player. He really deserved that moment.

FTFY

I take all of that Moffat criticism back for his through ball for that goal, what a pass and what a finish from Stuparevic.

I think my favourite thing about Owen Moffat is how once a game he'll actually do something really good. He'll win a 70/30 in his opponent's favour. He'll spot a through ball no one else had noticed, he'll whip a great cross in when no one thought he had the room for it. Invariably, within 60 seconds of doing his one and only good thing, he does the worst thing you'll see on the park that day. That shot when he could have slipped Stuparevic in instead after that excellent tackle was possibly the biggest whiplash he's offered us yet.

McGinn on while Garrity is still sat on the bench, Moffat still on the park. Fucking hell.
