Hawk Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 Great news for you with Jack staying but the pressing question is, has Reilly signed or are we still in with a shout of getting him back? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing official yet from the club but word I'm hearing is that it's a done deal and he'll be announced upon Jack's return from an eventful holiday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack will need another holiday after that one. Wonder if his missus just sent the Dundee chairman packing! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can understand why, after all being a Morton fan means your club has failed to match us on and off the park and have failed to do so for decades. In fact, from memory, Morton fans have only seen their club finish above St Mirren in the league 3 times in the last 40 years. Forty. Let's just let that sink in. Forty. That works out at 1.2% ... one point two percent. Flip that around and you have a 98.8% likeliness that St. Mirren will finish above Morton. Ninety eight, point eight. Crazy figures, just crazy figures, so you can see why some Morton fans are like they are. We should pity them, not castigate. You've got a fair point. These are indeed "crazy figures, just crazy figures". Sadly wrong figures. Three (3) divided by forty (40) times one hundred (100) equals seven point five percent (7.5%). Perhaps you didn't move from Greenock to Paisley until after primary seven (7)? Your general argument is completely sound though. Carry on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just threw the figures together from memory, but you know... either way those are damning statistics. I mean, if you really wanted to f**k the percentages you could do it based on the number of times they have finished above us in the top tier (I encourage people to google it, it's fun). I'll amend my post, and even with the amendment they are still "crazy figures". I believe the term around here is "minter".

So doing what I should have done in the first place yeah, it was twice in the 90's. The 95/96 was the one was I was thinking of, didn't realise they squeaked past us in 97/98. So, is that us done.. ..are we all agreed that Morton have managed to force their way above their far more accomplished derby rivals a total of 4 times out of 40? No matter how you slice it, those stats make for horrendous/hilarious reading. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bottom six Premiership club, underachieving relative to their budget with a long term aim of getting into the top six and establishing themselves there, are exactly the type of club who are going to take a shot on a manager doing a good job in the Championship. The club who've had the second best team in the country for three years and are looking to not just maintain that position - with a rebuilding job to do and a side with a far larger budget challenging them - but to build on it, with the aim of more trophies and further progress in Europe, aren't going to go near a manager whose biggest success to date is keeping a team in the second tier. They'll be looking for managers who've already proven themselves in the top flight, be that someone who's gone to England and hasn't had it work out like Alex Neil or someone who hasn't had a shot at a club of Aberdeen's size yet like Tommy Wright. Ross won't even be on their radar, which is great news for St. Mirren, obviously. The only way Ross is leaving is if a job like Motherwell, Kilmarnock or Dundee (again) comes up. Think that's right mostly. I think if Tommy Wright leaves St Johnston then I would think they would have a sniff around. Hearts are also a possibility if there's a vacancy. Dundee United might come knocking. But the deal would need to be attractive to Ross and I'm not sure that all of these options would be, 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
