The Rock, 26/7/09, Challenge Cup

Losing 1-0 to a team in a higher division isn’t a bad result. But we were at home and have done quite well in such circumstances in the past.

I suppose the only surprise was that it wasn’t Peter Weatherson that got Morton’s goal. He usually scores against us.

Attendance 1,102? Did they not undercount today then? (According to home regulars they frequently do.)

Looks like we need to develop a cutting edge, though.

Morton.

At least it’s at home.

We’ve not had much luck in the draws for the cups recently – except for Annan at home in the CIS last season.

Still, we did relatively well against 1st Division opposition last season (one of whom, admittedly, we will be meeting on an equal footing this.)

I’ve just looked at the BBC SFL page to check Morton’s final position and noticed – I didn’t pay that much attention to the competition after we got knocked out – that Airdrie actually won it last time out. We really ought to have beaten them in the first round.
