RENFREW 2 PORT GLASGOW 1
PORT GLASGOW saw their slim hopes of progressing to the knock-out stages of the League Cup finally extinguished with this defeat at Renfrew last night.
Port boss Brian Heron was pleased with his team’s performance, which he felt was a big improvement on last Saturday’s derby draw against Greenock.
Confident Dom
DOMINIC Shimmin is not too suprised at the good start he has had in Scottish football since signing for Morton at the start of the season.
Doctor won't provide Ton-ic
DAVIE Irons has ruled out any imminent Morton move for Kenny Deuchar — but hopes his close ties with the ex-Gretna goal machine might pay dividends one day.
Away form is the key now
TURNING narrow away defeats into draws or wins will be the key to how successful Morton are this season, says boss Davie Irons.
Irons angry at critics of Dom
MORTON boss Davie Irons has come out forceably in support of his defender Dominic Shimmin after the tackle on Gary Arbuckle which broke the Queens player’s leg during Saturday’s Cappielow draw.
Ton leave it late at Cappielow
MORTON boss Davie Irons felt that his men were well worth their point at a bitterly cold Cappielow on Saturday after being forced to fight back from two goals down.
Three seconds to go
THERE were only three seconds left on the clock, it was revealed after Saturday’s Cappielow draw, when Peter Weatherson struck to save a point for Morton.
Queens stunned
QUEEN of the South came to Cappielow as First Foots and threatened to spoil Morton’s start to the New Year by taking an early two-goal lead.
