WHY DO WE FEAR ARBROATH?

Mention Arbroath, and most folk will think of a wee East coast holiday town renowned for its smokies, yet the Greenock Morton fan-base seems united this Friday morning in mortal fear of Dick Campbell's part-time footballers.

WHY?

It's surely unfair to constantly attack David Hopkin and his squad when the real problem has been openly publicised.

Fellow Morton folk - it's long past time for change.

Yes it is, and to me Mr Rae is just begging for a way out without losing face.

How can Rae the Younger blame the club please?

Blame the Chairman, the CEO, the board of directors - RAE IS RESPONSIBLE!

Or should be.

The fans seem numbed after almost 20 years of Rae. The Club’s a total shambles at the moment. Agreed it’s wrong to constantly target the Manager and squad. Agreed it’s time for change.

That's where the buck stops. Those 'unacceptable losses' are the direct result of almost two decades of profligacy and failure to delegate. Poor little rich kid blaming everyone except the Rae family.

Green dots all round Dickheads!

I genuinely feel sorry for CR. He's been lumbered with his father's toy. Still - he's a big boy now and shouldn't be blaming others.

Alice.

It seems to be the Rae family rather than CR himself. If they want rid of our club surely they can donate it to somebody else. The club is debt free except in the twisted minds of the Golden Casket accountants!

Donate it ?!?!

It's common knowledge that the Easdales have been sniffing around for several years.

I’m convinced they would take over at the right price

Typical response from a closet Tim I.M.O. It's neither clever nor asked for on this message board. The Easdales are successful local businessmen and if they want to do for Morton what MacGregor has done for Ross County - bring it on!

Anybody who thinks the Easdales aren’t interested is in fairyland. Surely it can’t just be about their boy!

Of course they are and they've even had their own man on the B.O.D. for several years.

That's transparent.

Amazing how many can’t see through it tbh

Alex Gray's been on the board for several years-can't help feeling he's the silent assassin just waiting his chance

MIAOW

Perfectly obvious that Gray came on board at a point when there was Rae/Easdale entente and he hasn't budged since. Now the Club appears to have an ever more Easdale orientated infrastructure with the dead wood gradually being disposed of. I'm not the only one who suspects that CR is the 'nigger in the woodpile' - sticking out for Daddy's valuation of the Club.
