Lindau Posted April 1, 2013 Report Share Posted April 1, 2013 Quoted in todays Record  "I hope Morton go on and win the title. I will go out against Partick Thistle and hopefully score again"  Mmmm doesnt sound like someone who has, or is considering, signing a contract with us or is it a smokescreen???

Guest fredthecheesecloth Posted April 1, 2013 Report Share Posted April 1, 2013 Just spoke to Brian's agent, the one and only Mark Cairns. Â He said that this story is has been taken out of context. Brian was talking about Andreas Thom and his friendship with Jimmy Crease the ex Berwick manager. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest fredthecheesecloth Posted April 1, 2013 Report Share Posted April 1, 2013 So he doesn't want Morton to win the league or he isn't signing for Thistle? Â He hates us with a passion. He mentioned he got a tattoo saying I H8 PTFC next to his one that says YOLO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

briogadh Posted April 1, 2013 Report Share Posted April 1, 2013 So he doesn't want Morton to win the league or he isn't signing for Thistle? Â OK but what on earth has the original quote got to do with either Thistle, Berwick or Andreas Thom (whoever he is). Gobbledegook! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenziejag Posted April 1, 2013 Report Share Posted April 1, 2013 One of the other papers today had his quote as he didn't care whether Morton or Thistle won the league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagsman411971 Posted April 1, 2013 Report Share Posted April 1, 2013 Why would we want a 1st division striker? I'm sure we could get someone better as backup to Dools. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thornwoodjag Posted April 1, 2013 Report Share Posted April 1, 2013 Read it today,sounds like a player wanting his old team to win the league. Not so outrageous! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greenton Posted April 2, 2013 Report Share Posted April 2, 2013 Read it today,sounds like a player wanting his old team to win the league. Not so outrageous! Â Would be surprised if Graham said he wanted Morton to with the league. He is very unpopular with Morton fans (wasn't liked by the fans even when he was at the club, by all accounts an unpleasant and arrogant guy) and loves nothing more than rubbing it in when he scores against us. He said something to Tidser after he scored his O.G. on Saturday which Tidser was raging about.. beyond banter. Â Even if he was the best striker in Scotland I don't think he'd be welcome back at Cappielow. He was rotten for us anyway! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â I was saying something along the same lines on the way back from the game tonight. He's evidently a decent player but I'm not sure I'd want him at Firhill. He seems like quite a selfish player and doesn't seem like he would fit in at all well with the team ethic we've got going just now. I also get the same impression from Stevie May. Hard to argue with their performances this season, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greenton Posted April 2, 2013 Report Share Posted April 2, 2013 (edited) I was saying something along the same lines on the way back from the game tonight.

Hard to argue with their performances this season, though. Â I've seen hundreds of players turn out for Morton over the years.. and Brian Graham was one of my least favourites. By no means the worst, although he has certainly improved since he left Morton. There was just something about him, his body language/apparent attitude on the pitch... found it very difficult to like the guy! He seems to think he is a bit of a superstar... not someone that is going to do enything for team spirit. Avoid.

1 John Lambie Posted April 2, 2013 Report Share Posted April 2, 2013 Decent player but sure there's better out there, his lack of mobility would probably be a factor against bigger, stronger & quicker defenders that'd he'd face if he played in the SPL.

There's no doubt he caused us trouble tonight and he could easily have scored or assisted in a goal. I don't think tho' he'd get away with a lot of his rather, to put it mildly, unsubtle gamesmanship in the SPL. The TV cameras would highlight most of that and refs would be too aware of him. If he was a few years younger I might have a different view. Maybe I'm alone in thinking Spence could have more to offer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagfox Posted April 3, 2013 Report Share Posted April 3, 2013 He should try basketball, all arms and elbows. I'd take Spence over him. If he could get more shots on target he could have a bright future in the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
