Prior to April 2009 there'd been 9 games between us at Almondvale, with our record being W0 D0 L9 F3 A20. Then Our Lord and Saviour Brian Wake played there for the first time for us and scored a double in a 2-0 win, starting a run which now stands at 10 games unbeaten.

LIVIFOREVER Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 I see Callum Carson's twitter suggesting Hoppy will rotate the starting 11 a bit with us playing 3 games in 8 days, but with the snow forecast from Wed onwards the Pars game will prob be postponed so i'd just go with the same again. We've had an extra day of rest over Morton too with us playing on Fri so wouldn't think any of our players need a rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our last season in the Championship included three awful games at home to you, including a 1-0 defeat in the Scottish Cup. Just thinking back to then makes me shudder.

An awful run considering the two teams have been fairly equally matched over the period. Hopefully we can end it like we did with Dumbarton's winning streak a few seasons ago.

Kabba Modou-Cham waltzing through your defence at Almondvale like Gerd Muller in his prime in our diabolical relegation campaign was the clearest indication of that fact. The same applies to Inverness playing in the Highlands after Wake's intervention was sought and delivered from afar on Saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just thinking back to then makes me shudder. I also have bad memories of Robert Snodgrass and Graham Dorrans taking the proverbial mickey out of us in a 4-0 win, pretty sure it was 3-0 at HT. One of the best opposition teams I had seen us play at the time. EDIT was Griffiths in that team too?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikingTON Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 NB: The manager who provided the crushing iron fist within Wake's silk glove performance at Almondvale in April 2009 was of course Sir David Irons. A truly inspirational figure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GiGi Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 That Morton team. Keenan, Finlayson, Robinson, Coakley, Shields, Harding. No wonder a team that had a few genuine players cuffed us. So much better off now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colkitto Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 Real hard one to call. Two teams on form at the moment. We have a good defensive record but reckon there will be goals in this game for both sides. In the end up it may come down to luck or what team turns up tonight. I'll go with my heart 2-1 Morton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
