Benny Rooney- An Obituary

Benny Rooney- An Obituary By Russell Gordon After leaving Cappielow on Saturday in fine spirits after Morton secured progression to the last sixteen of the League Cup, I was saddened to see a message pop up on one of my group chats to pass on the news that Morton’s greatest ever manager, certainly in the modern era had left us at the age of eighty. I can’t pretend to be any sort of expert on Benny Rooney’s time in charge at Morton between 1976 and 1983, given that I was born in 19

Match Preview - Kelty Hearts vs Morton (15th July)

Kelty Hearts vs Morton – Match Preview   by Dean McKinnon  Morton’s new season kicks off tomorrow with a new opponent and a new stadium for the Ton faithful to visit. Despite the last-gasp heartache of Dougie Imrie’s men missed out on the promotion playoffs - although I’m sure the Morton support managed to find some catharsis during said playoffs - last season was a clear success for the club. With the summer retention list being sizably longer than Morton fans have come to e

Fine Margins in the Fog

(Photo- Gary Bradley) Fine Margins in the Fog A review of Morton’s 2022-23 Season, Part Three By Russell Gordon With no margin for error, Morton at least had a bit of clarity as to what was required going into the final three games of the season- nine points from nine was the be all and end all. However, they were dealt a midweek blow as Inverness turned round a late deficit at Hamilton, in a game brought forward to accommodate the Highland side’s Scottish Cup semi-final, whi

Dropped Points and Dodgy Penalties

(Photo- Gary Bradley) Dropped Points and Dodgy Penalties A Review of Morton’s 2022-23 Season, Part Two By Russell Gordon With the carrot of a Scottish Cup tie at Celtic Park on the horizon, which would hopefully provide a welcome boost to the coffers, as well as providing the players with an opportunity to perform to a nationwide TV audience, it was back to league business for Morton and a trip up the east coast to face an Arbroath side that were struggling at the wrong end o

(Photo- Gary Bradley) Substitutes, Sponsors and Sending Offs… A Review of Morton’s 2022-23 Season, Part One By Russell Gordon So, another season has come and gone, with Morton now looking forward to their eighth successive season in the Championship- the longest of all the division’s members and a club record since league reconstruction in the 1970s.

Back From The Brink-Morton's Third Division Title Win

Back From The Brink- Morton’s Third Division Title Win By Russell Gordon   In what’s fast approaching our 150th anniversary, Morton have won ten titles across various divisions- more than any other club outside Glasgow’s big two, Hibernian and newly crowned League Two Champions Stirling Albion, both of the latter now sitting alongside us on that figure.   Only once have we won the fourth tier title, but having personally witnessed four of those ten successes, it would be

Match Preview - Cove Rangers vs Morton (5th May)

Cove Rangers vs Morton – Match Preview by Dean McKinnon As the curtain falls on a terrific Championship season on the Tail o’ the Bank, Dougie Imrie’s men head north hoping to secure a playoff place. Imrie’s first order of business will be to beat a Cove side who are as desperate to avoid play-offs as their visitors are to be included in them. In a situation much akin to Morton, Cove will be hoping that a win combined with a favourable result from elsewhere will guarantee survival in t
