Queen of South vs Greenock Morton preview - Morton missing McCann
Posted Saturday, September 17, 2011 by PA
Queen of the South manager Gus McPherson will pick from an unchanged squad for the visit of league leaders Morton.
Striker Marc McCusker is still not ready to make his debut and, like last weekend against Hamilton, he will miss out.
McPherson is looking for his team to attack the Greenock men from kick-off, he said: "We were very positive last week and played three up front against Hamilton.
"We created chances and got the win we deserved which has been great for everyone's confidence here.
"A bit of the element of surprise may have gone now and I am sure the Morton boss Allan Moore will have them well warned, but I intend to go out attacking again."
Morton will be without Kevin McCann, who has a hamstring problem. He will be the only absentee for manager Allan Moore, who is keeping his player`s feet firmly on the ground.
"The time to be excited is with five games to go, not five games in," said Moore. "Whilst we are doing well, there is no point in going overboard.
"Raith Rovers led the First Division for a long time last season and never got promoted, so feet are very much on the ground at Morton."
The Greenock boss added: "Hamilton went to Palmerston last week as leaders and were beaten so we know that we are in for a really tough game against a gritty and determined side."
