Most Morton fans accept that yourselves, Dunfermline, and the Skunks are bigger clubs with a bigger fan base. I am concerned for Sat as you just don't know how your players will react to Houston going but at the same time, we know we can beat anyone in the league when we play well and we are always pretty good at Cappielow. On Bob, decent enough start for him, 5 goals in 12 appearances, 9 of those starts! Sometimes you don't see him contributing much but his movement in the box is always a threat and puts in a good shift. An interesting stat in the BBC top scorer section is that every shot he has had in the league has been on target. He has been benched the last 2 games, but i would bring him back in for Sat as he will be keen to score against you lot. A win puts us 11 points clear of you. Who would have thought that after 8 games?? McHugh could start as Quitongo still feeling the effects of hamstring. Duffy still not ruling out Jai could make it though. Looks like one way or another McHugh will play some part in the game on Saturday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tri-TON Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 Have Falkirk added anyone of note to their team from last season? I'm still confident of a win, 2-1. McHugh double whilst Falkirk score in the last 10 and we shut up shop and hold on for the 3 points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rory loy is the most notable addition but to date hasn't scored or played particularly well. maybe with a change of manager and formation he'll pick up.we've also added McGhee and balatoni to shore up the central defence which has worked to an extent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Gaines Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 I'd say most Morton supporters care about Falkirk as much as they care about us. Not a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purplemonkeydishwasher Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 Going by the Morton fans who post in the Falkirk fc thread, this is a big game for them, they seem to have an irrational hatred of bigger more successful clubs who have bigger supports for example us and St Mirren. If we set up a more balanced and attacking team then we've every chance of getting our first league win of the season. as for McHugh, who knows how good he could've been for us if he got a run of starting games, a player I was sorry we let go. I hope he bangs goals in for Morton and will always hope he does well purely for those last minute strikes against the rangers and hibs. Oh dear.

Senor Bairn Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 Bob McHugh will always have a place in my heart for some of the absolute scenes he produced. Would rather have him signed back up than the likes of fuckin scott shepherd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ira Gaines Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 Worth noting that McHugh has two league goals for us this season. Against St. Mirren and Dundee United. 2 goals in 5 starts isn't too bad, especially when his sub appearances have seen him come on pretty close to the end, so not many minutes getting played there. Scored big goals against Hibs and Rangers for Falkirk as well. For a guy who does well against part time teams, a lot of the goals he scores seems to come against full time teams. Strikes me as odd that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LIVIFOREVER Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 We got the same from Falkirk fans about Jordan White, just because he didn't score goals for Falkirk he was written off as rubbish, but big White did well for us.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By Livie's standards he perhaps did okay but he was nowhere near good enough for us and its no surprising he's now plying his trade at the mighty Barrow down south. Same with mcHugh. Was never going to be good enough to get us up so he had to move on. Unfortunately Loy whose a far better player has struggled in Houstons set up so far this season where we have created the square root of feck all. I'd like to think that the new man in charge will get the best out of the strikers we have and Bob will be for the most forgotten about other than his super sub antics at the end of Houstons second season.

Paisley Ton Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 Good news for the visitors (and the home support) its all systems go for our new turnstiles and your the test boys (and girls) Entry kept at £18 for full paying fans, see that as a petrol contribution, so expect to see your large travelling support. NB Term only applies to clubs with TS in excess of 1,000. Anyway Sir Bob will have a run out I suspect its written in the gods hope he gets us one of those 94th min goals you seem to grab against us on a regular basis. Jai to do a cameo for last 15 mins. Never feel confident v Fawkirk but this should be a good opportunity and see us doing a 2 nil job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
