Dee Man Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 52 minutes ago, Casagolda said: Think I managed to make it through the first 30 seconds of McGhee's post match interview where he rather predictably shifted the blame for our shambolic defensive display on the fact we had 3 of our regular back 4 out. Which may have been be a valid point if said back 4 hadn't shipped 7 goals just 10 days previously at Pittodrie which meant we already had the worst goals against record in the division going into yesterday's game. Whilst yesterday was certainly a new low, it was the 6th time in just 13 home league games this season where we've conceded 3+ goals, so I think that excuse can quite frankly get in the fucking bin. The problems clearly run far deeper and the man in charge either refuses to acknowledge them, or simply has no idea how to fix it. It's the latter. The guy is assistant coach of our national team...

Shaping up to be out biggest top tier win on the road since December 87 imo Awww - did you have to? We scored first that night. Only other highlight was one of our new Danish loanees coming on and getting booked for his first touch (putting Tommy Coyne up in the air). Was trying to laugh at the half time score yesterday but couldn't hear myself over the booing from the George Fox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry [emoji38]Though I think we gubbed Falkirk by a 6 goal margin the midweek after the Morton game. The other Cappielow game we lost 3-4. Both the games at Dens were fucking awful 1-0s IIRC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ought to have been 4-2 but one of our defenders mistook the whistle for Dundee to take a corner for the full time whistle and caught the ball in the box.

Morton got 7 from Rangers (riplol) as well, and I think lost 1-3 at Hibs on the final day to bring up the 100 conceded. Andy Goram might have scored in that game as well.

Ludo*1 Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 Was that the season Jim Duffy won Poty for Morton and in the league despite them conceding an incredible amount of goals? Or do Morton concede barrowloads regularly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rangers took 15 goals off us in our first three meetings and we then beat them 3-2 in the fourth one - our first home win over them in 70 years. Our other win that season was a 4-1 win over Falkirk, which took us ever so briefly off the bottom. Celtic beat us 4-0 at Scapa twice, the second being one where McAvennie got all 4. 5 minutes ago, Ludo*1 said: Was that the season Jim Duffy won Poty for Morton and in the league despite them conceding an incredible amount of goals?

No. We did concede 100 goals that season, but you're thinking of a different season where we conceded 100 goals (84-85) when Duffy did indeed win the Scottish Player's player of the year.

No - the one I'm thinking on was in 1992. I stuck highlights from it on Youtube last year but couldn't remember if your Partick game was the same season.

Yes, the "Gary Patterson Game". A sort of shite Peter Crouch signed for an alleged £1000 and a set of tracksuits from Lochore Welfare. IIRC we had terrible problems with injuries and suspensions about that time, and half the visiting support had no idea who this tall fucker was. He bulleted a header past Theo Snelders in the 9th minute, but was shown up about 20 minutes later. Stewart McKimmie beat him to a through ball, making up about a 10 yard deficit . Didn't he score a ridiculous OG in that 6-3 Thistle game? However he was shifted to defence later in what was a mental season. We had a poor run after the Thistle debacle, before somehow winning 1-0 at Tannadice with what felt like our only attack of the entire match. We also drew 4-4 at McDiarmid, despite being 2-4 down with 10 men (9 if you count Jamie McGowan hobbling off with the subbies all used) and a 5'7" striker with poor eyesight in goal (Paul Mathers was sent off in the first half). That game also marked Morten Weighorst's entry to Scottish football with an absolute worldy. We also came back from 0-2 at Airdrie after having two players sent off. That 3-6 at Thistle defeat also came around a year after we'd won 6-2 there when both teams were chasing the First Division title. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
