Tekel Towers » Morton v Dundee Utd 30/11/19

bowers · 25/11/2019 9:13 am

Back in action on Saturday after a short break. Morton are currently 3rd bottom.
With Shankland missing out due to injury i would go with the same line up that started against QOTS.

Siegrist
Smith
Reynolds
Watson
Robson
Harkes
Butcher
Stanton
McMullan
Appere
Clark

agree 100%, same team and hopefully same result although it is never easy going through there. I reckon we should have more than enough to get a comfortable result though and hopefully another clean sheet

Agree: same line up.

Morton have had some strange results so far this season. I'm wondering if they'll have one eye on their replay at the mighty Brora Rangers (population circa 1,100) with their thoughts on a money spinning 4th Round match in Perth.

Only home defeat for 'ton has been against Ayr United, away from home they are dismal. However, I'd expect us to have enough to comfortably take three points.

Any word on Pawlett's availability? (I'll not say is he fit because he's never actually fit as such).

i think he will be on the bench this week...

I'd keep Pawlett where he is until we are injury ravaged and are desperate, it is no coincidence that we play better football when he is nowhere near the team.

CarlisleArab · 26/11/2019 1:45 pm

Same team for me too.

Hopefully the match will form part of a 'Carlsberg' weekend for me. Out on the piss for a works/5-a-side reunion in Edinburgh on the Friday, 3 points (and a clean sheet) on Saturday afternoon, followed by the Sex Pistols Experience (for the 11th time!) in Bathgate on Saturday night.

A tad harsh IMHO.
A fit Pawlett is a very important squad member.
Don't write him off yet.

Pawlett was involved in 4 of the goals in the first derby, when fit I think he'll play.

Absolute rubbish.

100%

Form has undeniably improved since Pawlett has been out of the team.

Don’t think the issue is so much Pawlett himself (who when he’s on it he’s almost unplayable at this level) but the manager forcing a system change to try to accommodate him.

We are much more structured without him and he’d be better coming off the bench for half an hour if we need a goal.

Pitch inspection at quarter past 10.

TheShed · 30/11/2019 11:18 am

Game off

Arabdownsouth · 30/11/2019 11:29 am

Fuck sake man, 3 weeks without a game!!! Pissed me right off 😒

kingdomarab · 30/11/2019 11:29 am

Annoying but at least early enough to mean we’d not set off like has happened a couple of times recently. Could be a while before we see a rearrangement though.

Rescheduled for 10th of December.
