Although we always seem to struggle away to patrick no matter how well we are playing I think we'll do the business, played well 2nd half of the cup a few weeks ago and should have got something from the game, if we start that way we'll be fine, should be a cracker! We are stronger now that we were last time we played Partick. our team barely knew each other then, and we had some experimental formation with Tidser at left back. I don't think we have anything to fear from Partick at the moment, but I wouldn't expect us to win by a large margin. Probably be one goal in it either way or a draw. Although a massive win for the Ton would be nice of course, but O'Ware being out probably makes that less likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M0rtonfc Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 I think it's honking patter cause we never said Thistle, the lady boys with Liam Gallagher doo's that don't like it when they are called Partick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thrree choices here. Either you're having a go at the fact the guy didn't notice his predictive text substituted Patrick for Partick, or you're still in primary school, or most likely both.

Dunning1874 Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 We're going to need 90 minutes of absolute scenes to save this thread. I'm wary of over confidence here. We're playing well and had a fantastic result last week but we're hardly hammering opponents and we're only three league games in. When Tidser's on form we can control games and by the sounds of it Partick could be a defensive shambles without O'Ware, but it wouldn't be the first time we've looked like favourites going into an early season meeting at Firhill and somehow ended up getting pumped. It'll probably be another sub appearance for him tomorrow, but I can't fucking wait for a fully fit Denny Johnstone being supplied by an on form Michael Tidser.

I've stuck £50 on Morton to win*, that's how confident I am. I'd be willing to bet twenty times that amount, that this thread won't get any better. Football wise I don't think we will get a Morton side anywhere as bad as the first half of the Bet Fred tie. I also doubt we'll get a Thistle side as productive as that first half either. I'll take Morton's second half performance as the benchmark and I just feel we will struggle in the middle of the park as well as at the back which has the knock on effect of limiting chances and goal scoring opportunities for our forwards. Then again it's the Championship and anything can happen... *I also did this bet on Falkirk winning...I'd be happy to take the three points again, tbh.

I'm not too sure how this game will go. Usually when Morton fans get a bit optimistic and the opposition are on poor form it ends in tatters for us but I'm hopeful if we play like we did last weekend we'll get a win. A clean sheet for our defence that now looks to be gelling would be great as well. No doubt we'll be on the receiving end of a pumping now.

We had started the season well, top of the league and went to Firhill on a Friday night full of confidence. We lost 5-0. 2011 maybe?

Colkitto Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 I detest opposition fans saying "our team is shite" just now. As when Morton play them we usually get beat and they're not shite. Lets hope Partick or Thistle or whatever they're called really are shite and we take all 3 points Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
