MORTON have appointed Kerr Mactavish as their new general manager.

He will be responsible for the day-to-day running of the club.

Kerr initially got involved at Cappielow as part of Morton Club Together and has become a key figure behind the scenes over the last couple of years, on stadium management and operational matters.

He said: "It’s a real privilege to be taking on this role and I’m looking forward to having the opportunity to make a positive impact.

“Having been in and around the club for the last couple of years, I have a strong awareness of what it takes to run the club and have also had the opportunity to form my own ideas around how we can drive things forward."
