What's the deal with player contracts at Morton? Most of your good players on 2 year deals?

Tidser's on a three year deal, everyone else is on one apart from Kevin McCann who's only here until January.

What this thread needs is more other fans to bitch and whine about us having a good team and letting you know about it. Then we'd be a shoo-in for the title.

f**k me. Tonsillitis was right all along! Get it right roon ye nizzy!!!

They're on the SPL forum as well, having a bit of a boast and a look around.

Unfuckingbelievable.

Where would that be, you fucking clown? It's not our fault that your lot blew the lead they had two years ago then (rightly) got hammered for repeated cheating of local creditors and fellow member clubs. There are a few good lads on here from Dundee but some of you let the side down badly when what you perceive to be rightfully yours isn't actually earned .

No-one's getting carried away. We're loving being top of the league and because you can't take it you're trying to drag us down to your level.

It's a long,long season ahead and for everyday we're top of the league I'll be delighted with my team and the likes of you won't put me off

For what it's worth i think any of five teams could win it.

Don't bite at this fandan's bait, man. He's well known for having online breakdowns and he's probably due another any day soon.

Only because you are trying to make out that we're getting carried away the same way you guys did when your team shat it.

[Piehutt]

This is silly.

No one could deny we've made a good start. Also, I would say it is well above expectation. I was not all that hopeful, especially as the only pre-season game I saw was a bit of a drubbing at St Mirren. But to get results in our 1st four games (3 aways) was excellent. As well as a great showing in the St Mirren cup tie, which was a bit of a turning point for me.

Also, if we aren't favourites for the league then fair enough, but I certainly wouldn't swap places with anyone.

We do have a tight squad which could cause us problems, but I guess most folk do. No doubt the likes of Tidser, MacDonald, McCaffrey will miss a few games over the season and it will be key to grind out a win or a draw on those occassions.

And don't forget (if/when you're still up there in 2 months time and the excitements so high you can feel it as soon as you enter the ground) as soon as you're team let in a goal you must start singing and urging your team on, you're players will feel 10 feet tall with that sort of backing and it also the drowns out the moaning cnuts every team has.

The nice thing is that Morton needed our old seats from Love Street before they could ever properly challenge for the 1st division title. It gives me much pleasure to know that a little bit of St Mirren is running through the veins of Cappielow.

Perhaps you'll be lucky enough to feel what a proper local rivalry is next season.

You never know, you might even start a wind-up thread aimed at them without making a complete and utter c**t of it.

Like you do with Kilmarnock?

That said, we have a rivalry of sorts every season for the Renfrewshire Cup. It's just a shame that Morton don't ever want to win it..

Not sure where you are coming from, the two most recent "informative" threads (wind-up is such a dirty 1st division phrase) have been entirely on the money. It has been over 20 years since Morton graced the top division, and it has been 35 years since they were last above us in that league. It seems you have made a c**t of suggesting I made a c**t of anything..

Surely some clarification is in order. Did you not buy our old seating from Love Street or was it part of the stand. Either way, it was our cast offs which have helped you lot dream the dream of top division football. How long those dreams last is another matter of course..

Au contraire, mon ami. While the thought of Morton in the top flight would bring back all the memories of the late 80's, it would bring much joy to many to see them finally reach the "promised land". The joy I mention is of course the satisfaction in the knowledge that relegation wouldn't be an issue that year.
