montheton Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Thistle looked more interested in time wasting in the second half. Bobby Madden seemed to encourage the time wasting and then the sec we do it he is blow the whistle to speed us up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rudolph Hucker Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 It’s early days yet, but it’s possible that Nicky Cadden could turn out to be the new Ross Forbes....... .......and, even better, with a bit more pace as well. Here’s hoping....... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vikingTON Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Thistle looked more interested in time wasting in the second half. Bobby Madden seemed to encourage the time wasting and then the sec we do it he is blow the whistle to speed us up.Sir Robert only put on three minutes of stoppage time despite there being five subs, three goals and two lengthy outbreaks of SCENES in the second half. As good a performance as his stellar turn at Celtic Park in September 2013 when Efe juggled the ball to hand us the win.Top notch bloke IMO. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, that was hilarious. Sutton changed everything when he came on, but Hopkin needs to learn that defending is a necessary thing. The gantry forced us to move from our usual spot over to near the segregation "tape". My son fair enjoyed the atmosphere, especially the scenes and the limbs everywhere at the 3rd goal. We scored 2 goals the first one was a gift and the second to be fair to us was well worked. We were never in control of the game though. It was scrappy we seemed to win the wee one on one battles in the first half. Sutton came on and was too clever for Saunders ! then Scott fox happend. Caldwells pish about being the fittest team in the league has already came back to bite him on the arse twice. Just don't forget if it comes to and we need a new manager soon.. We will take Hopkin off you's if we want to 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikedafc Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 To be fair he couldn't foresee his keeper chucking one in the net to get Morton back in the game Caldwell’s tactics are atrocious, tried to sit on a 2 goal lead , guy needs punted very quickly , no doubt he will blame everything bar himself at full time 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BdenJag Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Morton are pish to be fair, but they have Hopkins we don't. Caldwells subs were fucking atrocious, we scored 2 decent goals. But to be honest I don't even think we deserved to be 2 up at half time. Morton's defence was all over the place in the first half, Mansell never really done anything as an attacking threat but as soon as he went off Morton's defence strolled it because no one was closing them down. Caldwell seems to want everyone constantly counter pressing but that only works if you can keep the ball for spells in the game. We can't keep the ball for more than a minute then we are off chasing it down again. They all looked fucked after 60 minutes.Exactly this. It works for Liverpool because they dominate the possession and have players with immense skill. We have Alex Jones and Lewis Mansell, amongst other absolute jobbers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thistle looked slightly less pish first half, but neither team played much football in the first half. Second half, slightly better from both teams. Morton were far better when Sutton came on., not just his physical presence, but we just started playing better football (on the deck)). Your keeper did help us out a bit with our first. One thing Morton will be this season is fit, we will score a few late goals, Im not sure we we will be pretty to watch, but if we could only get a good couple of decent central defenders in we could do ok. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaroonShoeCoo Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 Sadly predictable. Caldwell seems brutally lacking in tactical nous. New approach required. We have a few decent players in there and should be doing better. Quickly getting to the point where Caldwell has to take the blame, plenty of his signings in the squad now. PS is Fox on a bonus for goals conceded? Is that really 9 v Hamilton, Clyde, County and Morton? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
railwayend Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 Loads of football purists are going to slam Morton's style but if nothing else its effective . We nearly blew a three goal lead at Somerset ,it could easily have been 3-3 or 3-4 ...Morton will take plenty of scalps this season ,especially when the winter sets in . They could well do a Livingston . So everybody else write Morton of at your peril .. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itzdrk Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 26/1 for Morton to win at half time. I thought it would go similar to the Ayr game but one better and the goal times are right in that bracket! Just wish I had put more than a quid on now 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best thing is a big protest banner at the next home game telling the club that they are gambling with one-in-a-row. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
