Mr.Blue Posted August 28 Share Posted August 28 10 hours ago, bridge of allan bairn said: This. The last time we went through to Morton for a league game we didn't want to sit in the rain behind the goals so thought we'd pay for tickets in the main stand. We couldn't see well for pillars (and roof) in front of us and I had to sit uncomfortably sideways through the game as my legs wouldn't fit between the rows. That added to being goaded by really drunk "fans" in their shirt and tie hospitality next to us made it a truly underwhelming experience (and one I won't be repeating). Wee shame that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bairnardo Posted August 28 Share Posted August 28 The more I think about it, the more I think this game is going to be an absolute slog, both for the spectators and for the players on the pitch. Wont be pretty IMO. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RC55 FFC Posted August 28 Share Posted August 28 Cappielow used to be brilliant in the 80s and 90s when the away fans got a section of the cowshed. Always great banter across the fence and good sound made too. WDE is awful but far better than the main stand. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm 6'2 but had to sit fully sideways. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This would make a good thread the terrible legroom league who comes out in first position and wins the worst legroom in Scottish football…… 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GMBairn Posted August 28 Share Posted August 28 What's the deal with Morton? Do you play super defensive and deep with 10 men behind the ball and one man all on his own and that's why you can't score but don't concede? Or are you just well organised and in a good shape but toothless up front cause your striker is a diddy? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on a relatively small sample size - we miss a lot of chances because we have no actual striker, and we don’t concede because we are relatively well organised, seem to have 2 good keepers, keep the ball quite well, and Ian Wilson has been a human firewall so far. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
