classof2010 Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 It's a bit different to what morton are used close to fans full house not massive crowd probably 1600 a sloped pitch and a team who are playing well one defeat all season not much between top junior teams and teams in first and second division I know it's a step up playing one of the in form championship teams but junior teams have played better teams than morton recently and not had a hammering so your 8 and 9s I don't see happening Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikingTON Posted November 22, 2016 Author Share Posted November 22, 2016 I'm really not sure what is so different - for the players at least - about playing at a Junior ground instead of Balmoor or Stair Park, which Morton have done lots of times and with bigger issues at stake.

I fail to see why a professional team can't deal with a sloped pitch: it is something that the management have had plenty of time to figure out for themselves and have lots of time in training to make any adjustments that they think would help. The rest of the conditions mentioned are the same as any relatively big tie being held at a lower league ground, an experience that most of the current side have experienced plenty of times before. It might be a big deal for the fans, but the players shouldn't be fazed at all really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He played against us for St Mirren u20s in a benefit match for our captain in 2011 after he suffered a bad injury. He looked a decent player that day.

classof2010 Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 Frost covers went down last night and will be lifted on Friday lunchtime but overnight frost or rain on Saturday could scupper any work done midweek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maicoman Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 If the forecast is right it is only to be -1 for a few hours on Friday night so if they are happy with it on Friday afternoon it should be fine on Saturday The grass next to the park was not frozen solid this morning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kenny131 Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 Looking forward to our big game on saturday, to you morton fans it's just a free pass to 4th rnd, but you never know in football. At the moment in the Junior football grade I think we have the best non league team in scotland and hope to show our quality on saturday, if it's still not good enough to get anything from the game then so be it. Look forward to some banter at the match and may the best junior team win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ira Gaines Posted November 24, 2016 Share Posted November 24, 2016 We should be walking it tbh. I hope we take it seriously. Talk of fringe players can GTF. Just put the best team out and get this lot out with maximum ease. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
