Must have been the third jersey.
Forfar Athletic visit Cappielow today for 90 minutes of association football. Forfar hold first place, and Morton third, making this the League One match of the day.
Forfar's only league loss so far this season has been to Ayr United. They have however been knocked out in their first game in each of the three cup competitions.
Morton have six wins and five loses in league play. The Greenockians have played six cup games and are still alive in the Scottish Cup.
A hopeful development for Morton this season is the absence of a really horrible scoreline. Twice last year the Ton lost 5 - 1, and then there was that 10 - 2 result.
Ex-Morton manager Allan Moore's new club Arbroath have nine wins in ten games in League Two and an increasingly firm grip on automatic promotion come springtime, meaning he'll be back as a visitor to Cappielow next season if Morton don't gather themselves and earn promotion to the Championship.
[Morton win 2 - 0. Goals by Scullion and Barrowman. Morton remain in third place, but are only one point out of first.]
Hurlford United play their sixth Scottish Cup game of the season, a Round Three replay, at Stirling today. They have been in it since the Preliminary Round, as I keep reminding you. [Stirling win on penalty kicks. The score after extra time was 2 - 2. The penalties went to 13 - 12, a Scottish record.]
In Europa League group stage play Thursday Celtic visited Giurgiu Astra and played to a 1 - 1 draw in a pea soup fog.
