I lost count the amount of times I watched the manager jump up from his seat and berate the players for doing so 

Then that tells you the players are not confident of moving the ball forward to attack…. Just hope McPake has been working on plays going forward at training.

"They have trained well this week," the only stock phrase that was missing from the Managers preview

I hate myself for not feeling any positivity ahead of this game. Our away record is dreadful. We don't score many goals and one conceded is often enough for our opponents to win. Logically, a betting man would stick a few quid on 1-0 Morton.

Fortunately, football is anything but logical. The fact that it'll be blowing a gale will introduce an element of lottery into the proceedings. I can't remember if the Cappielow pitch runs west to east, but if it does, I hope our players will shoot from distance when the wind is behind them and keep it on the deck when we're playing into it.

I wonder what the bookies will offer on Tobi getting on the svoresheet? 🤔

Wind speed at kick off time is set to be 47mph. With the wind behind him, I reckon Tobi should be shooting from the edge of his box. 

Sounds like a great tactic and I am not kidding

[Eastendtales]

Indeed why not, stick them under pressure ffs. 

I have 0 confidence in getting anything today. Scraping a draw would genuinely delight me.

Looks like it's NW to SE.

So maybe if Tobi aims for the corner flag 😁

Kane, despite being "fully fit" warms the bench, and who is this guy Fogarty?

4-5-1 maybe? McCann on his own upfront?

Possibly, there is a few changes Hamilton back in after suspension, Cooper in from the start and Fogarty appears from virtually nowhere, Chalmers, Mebude and Todd dropped to the bench.

Kane to come on and hold the ball up after we go 2 up in the second half. Yes, Santa is real.
