Late 1970’s when I was about 10, they had Andy Ritchie who was a great player and Benny Rooney was the manager. That’s certainly been their peak in my lifetime. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Minertaur Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 My favourite Morton memory was starting the 2013 season at Cappielow and having Andy Russell starting up front while Greg Stewart sat on the bench 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CowdenLoyal Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 Remember the time we also put 5 past then at CP? Makes me shiver. Also it's absolutely criminal to not have any footage of Mark Ramsay's overhead kick at Cappielow in a 1-2 win I think? Was a thing of beauty. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was in the Boardroom that day when the Morton Chairman (the sweetie man) gave his pre-game speech. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was footage of Ramsays goal on the old SPFL TV channel. Will have a hunt around and see if I can find it anywhere 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HenryHill Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 In the early 90s were we not two up against them in the Scottish Cup at Cappielow with two minutes to go and it ended two each? Then we lost the replay? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter 'Sumo' Lamont's overhead kick at Arbroath(?) is the best goal there will ever be.

Morton were flying high at the time, we played very well and were a bit unlucky. I remember Billy Steele torturing the left back. I was there with the late great Ronnie Gray. Cowden diehard. Good memories. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We played well sure they might have been top of the Premier League at the time, they humped the Pars 5-0 in the next round. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
