Greenock Morton vs Partick Thistle Preview - No new worries for Moore
Posted Tuesday, February 22, 2011 by PA
Morton manager Allan Moore has no injury or suspension worries for the visit of Partick but will need to lift his men following the club's heaviest home defeat in nearly five years on Saturday.
It looks like the Cappielow defence could be overhauled after Queen of the South claimed a 4-0 win.
Moore said: "We were outdone far too easily at the weekend and we can`t allow that to happen again.
"We had been on a reasonable run until Saturday and had started to climb the table so we will put it down to a bad day at the office and look to get going again."
He added: "Despite that bad result, a win over Thistle would lift us back into fifth place in the table."
Partick add Willie Kinniburgh to their squad after the centre-back recovered from the flu bug that swept Firhill last week.
That leaves manager Ian McCall with a full squad to choose from.
The Jags are wary of facing another side that has just been heavily beaten, as assistant boss Ian Maxwell explained: "We faced Cowdenbeath last midweek immediately after they had gone down 4-0 to Dunfermline and they came out and fought for everything.
"I would imagine Morton will be the same after their result at the weekend, so we know how tough it is going to be.
"We lost down there earlier this season when we put in a fairly abject performance, so it would be nice to erase the memories of that with a win."
