R&Y99 Posted February 20, 2022 Author Share Posted February 20, 2022 With luck the weather doesn’t batter the pitch too much over the next few days and this game can go ahead. The pitch will be guff anyway, but we cannot be doing with anymore call offs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Deans Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 My big worry is all the games were behind. Morton are considerably better since last time. Any win here would b gr8.Mon Jags 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paisley Ton Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 Forecast for 10 mm of rain. While not a washout your pitch looked like a ploughed field v Dundee Unt. So as I am out the country should I bother to set the alarm to get up and watch the game stream? PS we where poor on Saturday a bit of an Imrie dip so need to get back on the horse as the trap door is still a jar. Also think we missed Oliver, did I realy say that, but in his new link up role he has been effective and a new man. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R&Y99 Posted February 21, 2022 Author Share Posted February 21, 2022 Some images of the pitch coming out today and it looks slightly improved. Nine days without use will have given it a much needed break, so I’m hopeful tomorrow night goes ahead. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VictorOnopko Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 Slightly annoying to be playing 'Decent Morton' rather than the previous 'Bad Morton', although perhaps their manager being in the stand again will mean that the new manager bounce has ended. Imrie seems to have done a very good job so far. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
velo army Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 Hopefully this season puts paid to us ever groundsharing with anyone ever again. The financial benefits have surely been outweighed by the injurious effects (probably literally) of fixture congestion. I can see us ending up outwith the playoff spots because of this. I can see this being a thrilling 1-0 to someone. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see this being a thrilling 1-0 to someone. To be honest, I'm not sure how much groundsharing has had to do with the fixture congestion. I think we've had 6 games postponed, three of which were away ties, and out of the three at home- one was postponed due to covid. I think (though I may have forgotten one) only two have been lost to the pitch. Even then, the lost games were due to waterlogging after very heavy rain, which with our drainage issue and a very wet couple of months, might well have happened had we not groundshared. Obviously sharing has ruined our pitch in other ways, and made it hard to play on. I just don't think the run of postponements can really be blamed on it too much- we've just been somewhat unlucky. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Koop Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 Morton team trains for Tuesday's encounter with a far better-looking football team and a manager who has conquered his vices. (Checks script.) Home win please. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy Millen in the dugout is the same clown who oversaw such hits as our 1-6 shoeing by Inverness, so there's every chance you'll be seeing bad Morton here. Throw in our stinking record at Firhill and generally against McCall and this has the looks of a cuffing to me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Presumably Imrie is still allowed to take training and set tactics and I am pretty sure you could devise some kind of clever system to communicate from stand to bench. I haven’t been to a game for sometime and have only seen highlights. We seem to have been playing pretty well, but defensively have been a bit disappointing. I expect it to be quite a close game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know- my original post acknowledges that. I was only making a specific point re the backlog in response to another post. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
