Morton vs Raith Rovers preview - Quartet missing for Ton
Posted Saturday, March 19, 2011 by PA
Morton are without four players when league leaders Raith Rovers visit Cappielow.
Sean Fitzharris is suspended following his red card in midweek against Queen of the South with injuries continuing to rule out David MacGregor, Darren Young and Kevin Kelbie.
Manager Allan Moore reckons his men are due a break against Raith, saying: "We have not carried any luck in any of the three games against John McGlynn's side this season and have only picked up one point from the three games.
"We have deserved more and if we get a fair rub of the green in this one we will do well.
"A win would lift everyone at the club after the disappointment of losing at Palmerston Park in midweek."
Leaders Raith Rovers will add winger Scott McBride to their squad after he spent three weeks on the sidelines with a hamstring problem.
The Kirkcaldy side will continue to be missing defender Laurie Ellis and midfielder Iain Williamson through knocks.
John McGlynn's men head for Greenock boosted by their midweek win over Cowdenbeath, but he knows that a win is far from assured.
He said: "Morton drew at our place and also defeated Dunfermline recently, so we know it is another tough game in a tough league.
"We showed great resilience in midweek to get a winner and we are going to have to show that quality again to get anything at Cappielow."
