Why were you disappointed with the latter, given your own pessimistic assessment of the balance of the game?
Perhaps if we hadn't coughed up stupid defeat after stupid defeat from similar scenarios in recent weeks, then a draw at Ayr would be consolidating a play-off spot rather than just our current league status (both against 9th and dropping further down the table).
Because at that point we were looking the better side, albeit we’d left it late. A winner was a possibility in a game where we ought to have been behind, yet rather that go for it, Mullen was told to hold onto it. The guy in front of me absolutely lost it at Imrie for that.

Agree - without Mullen we'd have lost that. We switched off after going ahead and really only got going again in the last five minutes.
Bit disappointed to hear Mullen being told to slow down in the final moments rather than getting to his feet and get the ball up the park.

2-0.
What's the odds that we don't make use of the wind at all after the break?

First f**king minute.

Guess we haven't shifted enough tickets yet to get behind the goal.

Good luck to him in retirement. A good man who was given quite a baptism of fire in his first job working for that bastard.
And thanks for bringing Harry Curran to Morton.
I'll second that.
Had all the makings of being our best manager since Benny Rooney but for H*** S**** dismantling everything from within.
Billy, happy retirement - cheers for THAT day ay Love Street.

Pleased with that.
Bearne had an excellent game. Thought Power was quieter but Queen's did seem to be marking him very closely throughout the game. Agree that Quitongo looked good.
Mention for Ferrie for going down clutching his head, then getting back up to "square go" Bearne before sitting down clutching his head again, just for effect and to ensure a booking. Glad to see him chuck in Robbie's free-kick, although with the sun in his eyes all Robbie had to do was get it on target.
Back to looking upwards again.

2-0.
Be nice if we could score again someday.

In the past I’ve come away from cup exits against top flight teams feeling angry because of heinous referring, bad luck or satanic cheating by the opposition. Last night I just felt deflated, yet proud of the performance. Whilst we matched Hearts, I felt that we didn’t really trouble them much except for a brief spell in each half. It was hard to argue with the result.
The goal was avoidable but it’s hard to lay blame. The players were toiling and we’ll never know what might have happened if the subs had gotten the chance to come on before they scored. I feel that extra time would have drained us and maybe have seen a harsher scoreline in the end.
Good atmosphere, aside from a few numpties. Great to see the place full and jumping again.
Really hope we can start scoring again and keep our push for the playoffs. -

A good lot of those involved with "Cowshed" having Celtic/Rangers wallpapers on their phones and their chants about Naismith being "orange" was incredibly embarrassing. Few shouts at Imrie too at the end which were dealt with as expected from surrounding fans.
Those doing the chant about "Hope you die in your sleep" can GTF too.
We are not the Glasgow cheeks.

That was brilliant stuff.
Get right round Brian Graham.

Very sorry to hear that he is stepping away from a game that he lit up as a player. My first real hero when watching Morton as a boy. The famous goal is often mentioned, but seeing him score the winner against the club that let him go, past the player that he was swapped for, was particularly special for me.
Echo the comments about his co-commentary, which drew praise from fans of other teams.
I hope that he has a happy retirement.

Player of the Year - Close call, but I'd go with Mullen.
Goal of the Season - Sticking with games I was at - Muirhead's 2nd against Ayr.
Best Signing - Lewis Strapp, same reasons as stated elsewhere
Most Significant Goal - George Oakley's late winner at Ayr which came after three winless games (and yes, we got 1 point from the following 12, but it was vital at the time).
Best Game - Muirhead 3-0 Ayr or the Motherwell game.
Worst Game - Morton 1-4 Partick, although the opening 15 minutes of the 1-2 Dunfermline game at Cappielow was horrendous.
