  1. Arbroath 0 - 6 Dundee United Dunfermline 1 - 0 Airdrie Morton 0 - 0 Ayr ICT 0 - 2 Queens Park Partick Thistle 2 - 1 Raith
  2. After failing to keep even Dumbarton interested in his abilities as a bench warmer, Garrity was subbed on in only three out of the last 18 league games - for added time only. It seems unlikely that he'll do anything between now and the end of his contract, other than be brought on to waste time.
  3. We took eight points from the first eight games of the season, after exiting the cup in the group stages with defeats to seaside league stalwarts Clyde and Falkirk (on penalties). We eventually went on a good run after getting pumped off Partick, but last season could just as easily have been defined by the bad streaks we had. Maybe I am just being pessimistic. I don't think we're a weak team, but I also don't think we'll be challenging at the pointy end next season and that's absolutely fine.
  4. McGills were clearly generous enough in their sponsorship that we let their boy masquerade as a professional footballer for years.
  5. A strong squad would have taken more than two points off Arbroath last season. We did well given the low budget we started with, but we did little more than stay in the mix as the teams around us conspired to shoot themselves in the foot. I'm less optimistic about next season, but would be happy to finish middle of the table whilst others throw money they don't have for a playoff push.
  6. If you place value in statistics like this over results or position in the SPFL pyramid then you truly deserve McGlynn.
  7. Yes, credit where it's due, Caley's club secretary got the job done and completely outplayed Queen's Park's office.
  8. This season exceeded my expectations. This post also exceeded my expectations, what a load of pish.
  9. Cove can't really afford to sit back and wait for chances, given the importance of a win. That kind of game often suits Morton so I'm hopeful for a good result to close the season. Wonder if Strapp will get another appearance or if Saturday at Cappielow was his last in a Morton kit.
  10. Give it a rest with these absurd Gretna comparisons. Gretna won the league.
  11. The least Caley can do is send QP a nice thank you card.
  12. Cove got a result. Falkirk won't. Thus Cove did it "the right way".
  13. Have you been in their thread in the championship forum? It's to protect them from themselves.
  14. In fairness to QP, they've taken advantage of the backing and might end up with something to show for it. Whilst grateful for what Douglas Rae did for Morton, his firm grasp on the reigns left us with little to show for what was, at times, disproportionate backing. At least under community ownership we're beginning to make the right kind of moves on and off the pitch.
  15. Morton can still make the playoffs and even if they don't, can still have a top half finish. If results don't go our way, though, I wouldn't underestimate the satisfaction of relegating Hartley as a motivator to close the season with a win.
  16. If Raith won yesterday, they'd be three points behind Morton with a chance of finishing 6th - not really meaningless with pride and prize money to play for.
  17. 10th place finish only if Accies win 17-0 against them. 9th a possibility though if Cove take 4 points from Dundee and Morton.
  18. Whilst an unlikely possibility, those results can still get you 6th if Morton beat QP and Cove.
