    That's not the point I'm making though. It was a very poorly worded post from Tonsilitis.

    He, and those within the club doubtless believe the accounts of the incident from O'Ware and Duffy, but to state categorically that they were the victims of a crime is foolish and potentially slanderous. Jamie's outlined what the correct approach should've been from those who feel wronged within Morton. This doesn't include the chairman directing his message to the support as a whole in the match programme, a director stating on P&B that an incident took place without evidence (not alleging), the player concerned posting, and subsequently deleting, on Twitter and Facebook a go at the fans after Saturday's win then shepherding his teammates away from the shed after scoring last night's goal.

    I don't doubt that he wants to succeed for Morton, but it also appears that he's wanting to create, or continue, a "them and us" divide between the players and the fans which is healthy for nobody.

    If someone has abused him then that can't be excused, but in the same breath, O'Ware's behaviour over the last few days, in spite of two good results hasn't done him any favours with those who certainly didn't abuse him. It's about time he grew up and stopped acting like a spoilt little brat.

    The beginning of the downfall for Mark Roberts at Ayr (not just his inept management) was a statement he made after a second confrontation with fans. Along the lines of I don't care if they don't like me, I have my own friends. That was the beginning of the end for someone who was adored as a player. He needed to retract what he said/apologise/or hold a clear they air talk at a fans forum. He did none of the above and that may be something Tam has to do, whether it would happen, I'm not so sure. 

    If not then he's more than welcome at Ayr :rolleyes:

    Allegedly, of course.

    That's quite an accusation to make without any evidence to support it.

    It would explain a lot. Tam is Catholic and has recently been demonised on social media by Morton fans for tweeting about Celtic (everyone is entitled to support who they want, even footballers) while Morton were in a bit of a rut. However it is an unfounded accusation, only Tam/Duffy/supporters closest to the incident will know what was really said.

    2 weeks on from the incident he's captained the side to a major semi, maybe that tells a tale on where his loyalties and commitment lies.
