Dunning1874 Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 12 hours ago, Demented Zebra said: Jim Duffy in tonight's Evening Times very up beat regarding your performance at Dumbarton just a bit unfortunate not to get the goal. The player you signed from Falkirk also sounded up beat in his interview. Maybe this will be a close game. He was worried he'd spin that line about Dumbarton: hopefully that's just the public face he's putting on it and knows fine well that the performance was nowhere near good enough. Had we played well, created a lot and just not managed to score thanks to excellent goalkeeping/defending then fine, that happens and it's hard for a manager to legislate for that. In reality we had absolutely no control of the midfield, the players had no idea what they were supposed to be doing hence we spent most of the game punting it aimlessly, while five players stood still in line with Dumbarton's defence failing to compete for second balls after the hoofs were easily mopped up, and our only clear cut chance came from a defensive error, with one half chance coming from a bit of skill from Forbes out wide and the rest all being speculative shots which were never going in. It was a dreadful performance and if we repeat it on Saturday it's going to be messy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GiGi Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 I wouldn't say messy. We were never in bother on Saturday and rarely stretched or tested even with a midfielder filling in at centre half. We just weren't very creative going forward. Sure to be sorted when Prince Gary Greenock slaloms back into his quarter back berth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McG Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 Wonder if we will have a new striker in the squad for this game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madton Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 Its absolutely shambolic that the club has not put anything on the official site regarding tickets/Fan cards etc. There hasn't been a mention of fan cards in about 2 weeks. Its 3 days before the game and no one has a clue how to purchase a ticket for our biggest home game of the season. Sinclair St will be a riot on Sat Hold your head in shame Morton. FWIW, I have a season card so I am one of the lucky ones but its the fans looking to buy tickets who i really feel for. 2 of my Celtic supporting mates said to me last weekend that they would come down to the game with me and asked how they get tickets. I shouldn't be saying "I've no fecking idea" Good chance they prob wont come now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps lower than potentially could be if folk are still away. I take it you're using "still away" as a euphemism for "still inside" ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tri-TON Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 This is how I imagine we will line up come Saturday. Gaston DoyleLamieO'Ware (hopefully)RussellForbesTidserMurdochThomsonHarkinsQuitongoI can imagine Harkins being brought straight back into the team which is unfortunate. Tam is wanting to make it back but if not it'll be Barr/McManus replaying him. 1-1 McHugh with our goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TurbineTon Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 Didn't you bring down close to 2k for our last fixture in which you battered us? Pissing of rain, midweek - i'd have expected similar if not better this coming Saturday? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
