UNDER PRESSURE: That’s Ton boss Davie Irons.

MORTON’S defeat at Ross County on Saturday means that they have completed the first quarter of the First Division campaign without a victory.

It is the longest period the Cappielow club have gone without a win in the league since the disastrous 2000-2001 season.

There were angry shouts from supporters who had made the long trip to Dingwall aimed at both players and manager Davie Irons after the team’s defeat.

The club are now rooted at the foot of the First Division table, four points behind second bottom Clyde and third bottom Airdrie.

Port scrap for a point

PORT GLASGOW boss Craig Brown was fulsome in his praise of his team, after a battling performance saw them salvage a point against the odds. The Port could have crumbled after losing an early goal and then being reduced to 10 men with the ordering-off of keeper Sean Graham after just 20 minutes. But they stuck to their task, and might even consider themselves unfortunate not to have come away with all three points. GedHoey scored the equaliser.
