I'd take him, but don't think we'll get him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunning1874 Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 26 minutes ago, AsimButtHitsASix said: I think he's been a bit shite tbh He’s improved as the season has gone on. Still prone to the occasional fumble at a cross or needing two attempts to gather a shot when he shouldn’t need it, but he’s cut out errors on the scale of Tannadice and Easter Road earlier in the season. I won’t be gutted if we don’t keep him but he’s been decent overall after a poor start. Hopkin has been clear about the intention to keep as much of the squad together as possible to build the core over a few years with continuity being the basis for success. On those grounds I’m fine with guys who’ve struggled to establish themselves or been below par like Salkeld getting new deals, but it doesn’t mean you keep every single younger player. We all know that Ramsbottom, Blues and Muirhead aren’t good enough and Ramsbottom in particular is miles out of his depth - that’s not something that’s going to be fixed with more time at the club due to the squad gelling over time. Continuity is desirable in and of itself but it can’t magically turn a bad player into a good one; offering contracts to any of those three would be a waste of a wage. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought it was telling that Cadden said that Livingston had an incredible team spirit, that can only be beneficial when the difference in quality in this division is so minor. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Ghost of B A R P Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 Is this the point at which to acknowledge that MCT has turned out to be an inspired idea, for reasons no one could have anticipated? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still, if we have to trim the herd a bit then the self-inflicted will probably deserve it more than most. .......incidentally, I think the management of that particular establishment should have their licence cancelled after that farce yesterday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rudolph Hucker Posted April 7, 2020 Share Posted April 7, 2020 There’s a thread on the Morton board at the mo where people post about their favourite message board moments/threads from the past. Surprisingly, no one has yet mentioned the time virginton thought that if the courts decided to hold a trial in camera it meant the proceedings would be televised. Comedy gold. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rudolph Hucker Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 I'm posting this almost 12 hours after your post, and even now it's not quite two and a half days. Elementary 'rithmetic, my dear Watson - one would almost think you had some ulterior motive for making it look as bad as possible....... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AsimButtHitsASix Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 (edited) Saw this on the East Fife thread A best ever Morton XI you've seen with each player of a different nationality (no Scots allowed). I've went for a very narrow 4-3-3 1 Cervi (USA) 2 Pepper (Ireland) 3 Iredale (Australia) 4 Fenwick (Canada) 5 Peciar (Slovakia) 6 Bachirou (Comoros) 7 Jacobs (South Africa) 8 Lindberg (Finland) 9 Wittiveen (Austria) 10 Wake (England) 11 Earnshaw (Wales) subs: 12 Cham (Gambia) 13 Boe (Cameroon) 14 Milojevic (Serbia) 15 Morrow (Northern Ireland) 16 Kerr (Malta) 17 Novo (Spain) 18 van Scheik (Netherlands) As you can see from the subs bench there are some slim pickings available. Starting XI aint bad tho Edited May 12, 2020 by AsimButtHitsASix 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starting XI aint bad tho Not a bad effort. I'd have Parfait Medou Otye in there over Perciar and Caraux over Cervi just for that performance at Celtic Park. I'd have Weatherson over Wake too. It's slim pickings though when you look at the bench! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikingTON Posted June 8, 2020 Share Posted June 8, 2020 Sam Morrow didn't play for us unless as some sort of ringer trialist and so doesn't count. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madton Posted June 8, 2020 Share Posted June 8, 2020 It will be John Morrow, an Irish winger who played for us 97-99. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
