  1. Yup. That soap and deodorant scent could be too much for your delicate wee nostrils!! God forbid they'd actually try and win something.
  2. I'd be torn as f**k! Was genuinely rooting for Alloa earlier, mainly because of Goodwin. I want him to be St Mirren manager after the next guy, so want him to do well.
  3. Cheers for that. There had been whispers about Holt, so that tallies up. And cast-offs from other clubs is likely to be our level in terms of transfers.
  4. nah, now you've sacked him I can stop pretending I think he's a good manager. I was referring to a far more handsome, league cup-winning Jim.
  5. Pains me to say it, but I know who I'd be trying to employ as manager if I was in charge of Morton...
  6. I hope this is the case, because all the obvious candidates seem flawed. I'm not saying we want (or can aspire to) a flawless manager, but there must be someone out there with similar qualities to Ross. Interesting from @RandomGuy. about Neilson. I'd not realised Hearts fans didn't like him. Were they legit complaints, or was it akin to spending 32 years blaming another team because you failed to draw at Dundee 32 years ago?
  7. Yeah, rough news about Harry, but not too worried. Wonder if he's moving to Ipswich. How many Prem teams have plastic pitches now? He might have missed a few games anyway.
  8. Yep. Ipswich fans seem a sensible bunch and are excited by the prospect of not just getting one of the manager revolving door managers that somehow still get jobs at that level in England. We absolutely must apply the same logic to our approach and I trust GLS will do that. Neilson also would suit me fine; I love the idea of Jim but it's just too soon and he's not done enough yet. I'd like to see a team at Championship level give him a shot either next season or in a year or so (not Morton) to see how he gets on at that level. Hey, that could be us if we come straight back down
  9. Yeah, whereas Barnsley and Dundee felt like weird moves, this one has a solid feel to it. I hope it happens now, rather than any further into the window, and that we find a great replacement.
  10. Awright VT mate? I've not heard much from you recently, as you've completely shat it and failed to materialise in any meaningful threads for the past couple of months. Spineless c**t. Ripping the piss out of Brechin and Raith fans doesn't count. The record will always show that you can dish out the trolling, but have shat it and hid when the tables turn. Anyway, we are preparing for life in the top flight while your joke of a club has no manager, a dwindling fanbase and you're failing to offer contracts to your best players who are deserting like rats from a sinking ship. Relegation and part time football surely beckon. Discernible upward trajectory, indeed. Get it right round ye.
  11. Fair enough - transparent wind-up attempt on my part anyway. I am genuinely pretty confident we'll stay up, and genuinely very intrigued to see how your summer goes. It's never dull supporting a diddy club
  12. We'll stay up, I'm not worried. And even if we come down, we'll go back up before Morton even get close. That's got to hurt.
  13. At this early stage, I'm struggling to see which teams will actually finish below Morton next season.
  14. And 86 days longer than your title challenge lasted this season.
  15. Really surprised he's not at least being registered as a player. I think that situation might change over the summer.
  16. Hopefully he'll get a good pre-season in and stay injury free - I'd imagine then you'll have a decent player on your hands.
  17. The glorious part is, I'd still put money on Raith being back in the top flight before Morton.
  18. Ripping into the likes of Raith and Brechin really just reminds us all how fucking diddy Morton are, tbh.
  19. Yeah, this. Hope we can make the numbers work as it'd be an exceptional addition to our ground. If we can show it can work for us, it'd be great for more clubs of similar size to follow.
  20. I think the conclusion you need to draw there is that we lacked physicality in other areas of the team - yes, Morgan is slight, but you can afford to carry a slight player who brings what he does to the team. What was needed was more physicality around him, to soften defences up, to be more imposing in the middle of the park, etc. Last season, if players went through Morgan, they knew there'd be no comeuppance. Jim Goodwin the player would never have stood for it. I keep banging on about Curtis Main at Motherwell, but in my mind he's precisely the sort of striker we need to be looking at bringing in.
  21. Not sure how many would be worth considering , in all honesty. Probably only three or four I think are genuine Championship level. Of those, Josh Todd looks capable, and was unlucky with injuries - some thought he might have been worth another look next season, but it looks like we're being pretty ruthless. He plays as one of the three behind the front man. Stelios is Stelios; flawed but ok for the Championship. Not sure if he'd go to you, I think he's the sort of player who needs to feel the love. That's not a dig at Morton. The other viable option is John Sutton who is already being linked with you. He'd do a job, no question, even if he was first choice off the bench. I think he'd have been better than any of your out-and-out strikers this season. The fourth - bit of a youth prospect - would be Nathan Flanagan, who we recalled from his loan at Christmas (presumably in case Morgan didn't come back to us on loan) but hasn't really featured much at this level.
  22. Good stuff. Didn't think there was any doubt, in fairness. #Unfinishedbusiness
