  1. Former fans’ favourite Robert “Bobby” Barr opened the scoring for Lowland League heavyweights East Stirling in their 4-0 swording of hapless Edinburgh University at some League One bus shelter that doubles as their home ground.

     

    Mark Millar and Nicky Low also scored.

    Good quality players with proper cvs.

     

    Sort of players we should be signing surely.

  2. Taylor played for St Andrews for years where his dad was a coach then Rangers then Killie. Rangers and Killie had tonnes of Greenockians at that time, even more than St Mirren.

     

    Interestingly, around the time Morgan left Rangers was when John Laird was trying to set up a Youth System at the Ton but failed totally. There were a lot of players at Morton who left at this point who are now scattered around the lower leagues/Juniors

    A number of them around your age per chance?

    Can think of a number who lost out due to the failure of our system and also Rangers.

     

    A couple playing in the junior Cup final tomorrow!!

  3. Sad that Morgan and Taylor never played for Morton youth.

     

    Two fine talents who could have brought in revenue to the club or maybe the difference between playoff failure or winners.

    Am sure both boys were with First Touch. Morgan was with Rangers. Not sure if Taylor was ever there or went straight to Killie. Killie took some of the areas best talent for a fair few years.

    Both good lads who deserve there success. Hard work, dedication, good attitude etc etc.

  4. Just watched it, he did not cause the goal. He showed him down the line, limiting the shooting opportunity. McLean runs in unmarked at the back post to score.

    He then went on to play a pivotal role in the new year Derby which was a full 6 weeks after the semi final.

    Not sure why you thought he was finished when he left us.

  5. Surprised but pleased to hear he managed to regain his fitness, as I thought he looked finished with us. We actually still played him when he was carrying an injury. The sight of him slowly limping after McGinn in the league cup semi-final causing their second goal still makes me wince with embarrassment

    Sorry, you think he caused the second goal?

  6. Did he not play for Newcastle in the FA Cup?

    Am sure he played against someone like man City.

    Could be wrong.

    My killie supporting mate says he is an absolute class act.

     

    I would suggest that he would not struggle were he to move to English championship now.

    He has over 100 first team games under his belt now. To suggest he can't cut it due to not really breaking into the Newcastle first team having been signed as an under 23 is pretty short sighted.

  7. Jai Quitongo’s being let go by Thistle after being offered a contract just last week, allegedly, has also totally binned his Twitter. Apparently been a bit of an arse.

     

    Noticed mention of that on pie and bovril after similar chat about Jack Storer.

    What's Jai been up to?
