THIS is your chance to have a sneak peek behind the scenes at Morton's annual Sportsman's Dinner.

Billed as the sporting event of the year, Saturday's showpiece event saw 350 guests enjoy a fabulous night of footballing entertainment at Greenock Town hall.

Guest speakers Ron Atkinson, the former Manchester United and Aston Villa managerial legend, and ex-Rangers wing wizard, Willie Henderson, thrilled the crowd with tales from their careers.

Over £10,000 was also raised for the Ton's youth teams - and if you didn't have a ticket you can now see what all the fuss was about.
