I think withholding ST money at this stage is only harming the club. The board are clearly open to offers and negotiations are ongoing but they can’t just ‘resign’ which some people are wanting until that is sorted. All a boycott of season tickets will do is mean we have poorer quality players next season and less budget for any new owner to work with. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fairly certain we could do it again if it all goes tits this coming season. I thought Kidd would have been ok for next season. Hopefully it means McKinnon is bringing in players of a higher standard than Kidd though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
port-ton Posted May 11, 2019 Share Posted May 11, 2019 Had a bit of a Falkirk detox after last weeks confirmation of what we knew weeks before....however to all the Morton fans pishing themselves I would be seriously concerned if I were you. Also football has a funny way of slapping you in the face and I’m not sure you should be sitting comfortably next season. Don't enjoy the good moments because bad moments are coming is most definitely up there with one of the most stupid things I've ever heard a non old firm fan say. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The female staff and a few journos I know who know him say that he is a horrible, creepy git who used to try and sleep with everything that moved. So basically behaved like a footballer 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless you know the people I've spoken to it's nonsense for you to claim a falsehood. I'm not going to name names, but I will say that all the folk I was referring to are photographers, some work for the largest press agency in Scotland and one is female. Funnily enough the female one was the person who praised him the most highly. I can think of one manager I know who had a very obvious liking for the ladies. I've never seen anything like that from McKinnon. Not even a hint of it. I'm not saying you're lying but it doesn't tie up with my experience of the man. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bairnardo Posted May 11, 2019 Share Posted May 11, 2019 I wasn't saying that you being told that is false, I am saying it is a false representation of what he is like. Few different people I have spoke to, mostly Journos and admin staff plus a kitmam - admittedly none in the same positions as you. One person who went for an interview told me that he said that if she slept with him she would get the job. Think him turning up for the Morton club photos and laughing about with staff when he knew that he had agreed a deal at Falkirk is pretty damning as well.Some pretty unsavoury accusations you are banding about tbh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be a little wary of making allegations like that if I were you. While I don't know what happens at every club, the manager normally only employs people working directly with the team. Players, coaches, sports science, maybe kitman, and one other. And 99% of those appointments are male. The only role where the applicant might be female is the physio. Morton have a female physio, as I think do Dundee Utd. I'm not sure either of those folk would be pleased to read your last post. Let's just say that as a Morton fan you have reasons for disliking McKinnon and leave it at that. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although, I am just passing this on, as with all this stuff there is always a fair level of exaggeration and just as I haven't taken it as gospel, neither should anyone else. Overall though, I have heard enough that makes me doubt he is a top bloke. Happy to leave it there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
