Not really, a Raith fan asked about Morton's achievements recently, so I asked about Raith's recent achievements.

From the answer I got you could tell he was on the defensive.

There's nothing I have witnessed as an Ayr fan that VT can outdo as a supporter at Morton, my kids have had more Hampden cup visits than most if not all Morton fans on here, given Mortons lack of recent cup success I'd guarantee that my wife and kids have witnessed more cup games of any standard than VT has.

I tend to live in the past with regard to Ayr, at least it is actually my own past and not a past I've read in a history book.

Not a single member of the Ayr United support, past or present, has ever seen their side lift just one national trophy of significance. Never.

This means that you are all, collectively, living in the shadow of greater clubs like Morton, hence why you:

1) Attempt to subsistute semi-final roastings for actual success and
2) Spew and rage when the big team collects their mandatory 12 points a season from plucky diddy sides like yourselves

Repeat 1, repeat 2: because nothing ever changes for the diddy sides. Forever living in our shadow.

lol wut

The League Cup never has, and never will be, a trophy of significance.

Not only have Raith eternally failed to win the Scottish Cup, but in your sole final appearance, you got pumped by Falkirk. Embarrassing stuff really.

I agree with vikingTON. Significant trophies that Morton have won in our lifetimes include:

... no, wait.



WE HAVE SEEN NO MAJOR TROPHIES

So any Celtic fan under the age of 45 can't claim that their side won the European Cup? Or did they have to be physically present in Lisbon also in this bizarre, tear-stained checklist that the diddies like to bring up?

Historical success has no sell-by date. Those clutching at that straw clearly do not know success.

this is true

however historical success really has no relevance on the current season, unless you are the current holders of a competition

So you regard Dunfermline and Celtic to be of equal stature within Scottish football? An amusing argument, but certainly a convenient one given your own side are one of the minnow tadpoles at this level of existence.

I think we are all aware that some teams are distinctly bigger than others, within the same competitive level. Even some of the diddies have been adult enough to grudgingly know their place.

what a bizzare conclusion to draw from what i said

unless you are comparing winning division 1 to winning the scottish cup?

Neither are holders of the SPL, so surely their historical success is absolutely irrelevant to their campaigns, expectations, and chances of success this term?

The conclusion is bizarre only because your argument is self-fulfilling horseshite. No surprise to see irrelevant diddy clubs making up the bottom three of SFL1, like the shite cannon-fodder you are.

Erm, no. But nice try at squeezing some relevance from your history of umitigated failure, in the form of a First Division trophy.

Since 1991/92, 40 teams have been relegated from this level. 9 of these had previously won a trophy of significance, the other 31 were irrelevant diddy clubs.

It's almost as if being a perennial historical no-hoper is strongly linked to being shite in any given modern season. More research is surely needed to prove this.

as hilarious as this attempt is , i just fail to see the relevance in something that happened 89 years 10 months 6 days ago to the 2011/12 season in scottish football
i however wouldnt argue that not winning a competition (final appearance) more recently is any more relevant


and here i am not shite cannon fodder

[vikingTON]

Since 1991/92, 25 teams have been promoted from the level to the top flight. 16 of these sides hold a trophy of significance to their name. The other 9 are trophyless diddies. Gretna, Raith, Hamilton etc.

It's almost as if being a historically successful club is strongly linked to the prospects of promotion in any given modern season.

Our historical success is part of the reason why we're bigger than you now. It's why we have more money, more fans, why you accept our rejects as your star players, and why we despatch your clubs with some regularity, both in head-to-head encounters and by the end of the season.

The above stats support this. Historically big clubs get promoted (Morton having a Scottish record total to our name), diddy clubs get relegated to the seaside leagues.

I think the fact that a Morton fan is arguing with an Ayr United fan over which is the bigger club only serves to highlight that both clubs are diddy clubs.

No?

The CURRENT Morton team certainly embody the spirit of the good old team of '22, 6-0 ya fanny, I've still not stopped laughing at your pathetic deluded attempt to talk up a failure of a club like Morton.



6-0 even East Stirling would've done better

[JRS LEFT PEG]

Why are you Ayr fans continually biting to this guy . He knows Ayr have done infinitely better than Morton but puts up this arrogant , nonsensical front and plays his game with you.

Erm no. It merely shows that Ayr United fans are delusional and big shots like ourselves like to put them in their place. Unlucky Muggles.

Indeed they do. When they regularly bitch-slap your side and pumped another non-entity in the last round, I can't help but feel a wee bit sad for those who have had to live on such a meagre, meagre diet of 'success', to have had no achievements worthy of the name.

I guess we should give you all a round of applause for still turning up to watch your irrelevant diddy teams: you're sort of like the fans who watched the full game at Fir Park last week.

vikington all your arguements are rounded up to saying that you are biggier and better than ayr because you won a scottish cup more than 90 years ago well if thats it then we should welcome in east fife and dumbarton

that seems right morton is on par with east fife and dumbarton

East Fife and Dumbarton are much more significant within the Scottish game than Ayr, or for that matter, Hamilton. Unlucky.

[Fifespud]

Christ can you Ayr lads not give up. What was meant to be a celebration of another epic Morton fail has been deflected brilliantly by VT into a discussion of Ayr's relative diddyness.
