Morton vs Falkirk


Recommended Posts

Behave yourself, two players chased and slid in for a loose ball, they collided and one player unfortunately got a bad injury from it. There was no intent or malice in that challenge at all.

^^^^ This.

On the game, one mistake from Kilday cost us a point in the end. Kilday had a stinker if a first half, short pass backs and poor headers nearly costing us. Was still a surprise to see Duffy subbing him though. And Connor Pepper, normally one of our better players, had one of his worst games in a Morton strip; he tried as much as ever but it didn't come off for him.

Little in the way of goal attempts at either end, though that McManus free kick was a belter and Gaston pulled off an excellent second-half save.

Up front we still struggle, with Johnstone still fairly ineffective. At least McManus looks like he's getting back to what we saw last season, but he can't do it all himself.

Defensive mistakes and our lack of threat in front of goal are costing us dear.

McKee went in high with studs showing. I would be shouting for a red card if a Morton player was injured in such a way.

Shut up. His studs were showing aye but it wasn't an over the ball challenge. It could just as easily have been McKee on the stretcher. Both players fully committed. Hope the boy's ok.

Weve hardly had a bad injury all season and now we've had two shockers in a few weeks. Neither on our own artificial turf either mr wharburton! Norwich will have some brilliant facilities for his recovery im sure which will hopefully see him back playing as quickly as possible.

McCracken taken off today as well. Concerning as you'd have thought the natural change would have been Hippo or O'Hara on for Baird. Hopefully just precautionary

I thought we looked better when he went off TBH. He runs like he is in quicksand now

Just watched the highlights back and it is a shocker of a tackle. A Morton fan earlier mentioned his studs being shown. They were we up and he went right through McGrandles.
