Pedrodelawasp Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 I’d hoped for an improvement after half time, but didn’t quite expect to improve just quite as much (not that we’re suddenly amazing or anything, but a marked improvement) 1 minute ago, Pedrodelawasp said: I’d hoped for an improvement after half time, but didn’t quite expect to improve just quite as much (not that we’re suddenly amazing or anything, but a marked improvement) FFS, how mealy mouthed can I make “we’re playing better”?

TRVMP Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 Yeah, that was a significantly improvement. Shame we waited until half time to wake up but a 1-1 draw against the murn, who are a division above us, you can't complain too much. Good spirit from the team once again to come from behind and put the fear of God into the opposition towards the end there. I can see us winning on penalties no problem.

Scott Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 We would’ve won that if we started with the team that finished. Bizarre move from Hopkin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr.Blue Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 First half pish. Second half much better. Play your fucking strongest 11 Hopkin.

Pedrodelawasp Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 Bugger. At least the second half should give a good indication of who should be starting more often than not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

port-ton Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 Oh well. Not too dispondent considering my rage at half time, but we need to start finding consistency in our performances.

Not too dispondent considering my rage at half time, but we need to start finding consistency in our performances. For me, it’s just utter shite from Hopkin. Yes we were a lot better in the 2nd half. But the first half is what killed us and a reluctance to make any attacking changes until the 70th minute. We would’ve won that had our best players been on the pitch. 100%. St Mirren are looking good for relegation this year. Although we might be as well if we have any more performances like Saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cet Homme Charmant Posted November 11, 2020 Author Share Posted November 11, 2020 Definite tactical error from Hopkin to line up so defensively in the 1st half. They're shite, and we gave them too much respect. If we'd had a go in the 1st half like we did in the 2nd, we'd have won that game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dunning1874 Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 Missing penalties happens, but if you're going to be the kind of smart arse who takes a short run up you need to know you're good enough to place it right in the corner because you unavoidably telegraph where it's going by only taking two or three steps. A pathetically easy save to lose it in sudden death. If we hadn't started with what's close to our worst XI possible on the pitch we'd have won that. With some of our best players in the natural positions in the second half we were in total control.

If we SWORD Thistle we move onto 7, but below QoS on goals scored. So we need to win by two goals (or a 4-3, 5-4, 6-5 etc. win would also suffice to go above them on goals scored.) That's unlikely to put us in the four best runners-up, but it's not mathematically impossible. edit: disregard, shan table Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GiGi Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 Without being abusive to any particular players it's pretty clear who needs to not be playing any more if we can avoid it. The subs made us 10 times more competitive. Just now, TRVMP said: If we SWORD Thistle we move onto 7, but below QoS on goals scored.

vikingTON Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 Credit where it's due, I expected that team to get slaughtered but the defensive work was pretty solid. Yes they could have had another goa in the first half and it wasn't entirely solid - playing a back five with little playing time together makes your defensive line ropey as fuck - but they hung on in and eventually dragged the burners down to our level. Then we swapped jobbers for ballers and so moved up to a higher level than them for most of the second half. Strapp was very good but Fjortoft was MOTM for me, an excellent performance throughout the first half as well as the interception that they were gurning for a passback from in stoppage time. More: Fjortoft/McLean only at CB; Ledger on the right; Jacobs; McPake; even MacIver I'd like to see more of Less: Blues, Muirhead and to a lesser extent Omar and Salkeld. The site is supposed to be a place for the extended 'family' of Morton supporters - having an affinity with people that you don't know, because you share a love of your local football club. It's not supposed to be about point scoring and showing how 'clever' or 'funny' you are, or just being downright rude and offensive to people you don't know, because you can get away with it. Unfortunately, it seems the classic case of people who have little standing/presence in real life, use this forum as a way of making themselves feel as if they are something. It's sad, and I've said that before.. So, having been on Morton forums for about 15 years I guess, I've had enough... well done t*ssers, another Morton supporter driven away. You can all feel happy at how 'clever' you are Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
