The Barque Tay on the River Clyde, by William Clark of Greenock. Source.
Alloa Athletic visit Cappielow.
The situation. This could be Morton's last game against Alloa for a good long time. The Wasps are dead last, and although they still enjoy a mathematical possibility of avoiding relegation, that should evaporate by the end of March. Still, Alloa's string of three consecutive seasons in the Championship has been their best showing in the senior leagues in their history. They finished 8th in 2013-14 (and swept Morton), 9th last year (and won the playoffs to stay up), and are now 10th.
[Morton win 4 - 1. Goals by McManus (2), Forbes, and Johnstone. Morton cannot finish tenth.]
Clyde. I'm pulling for Clyde to win promotion to League One. Today they visit East Stirlingshire. [East Stirlingshire 2 - 4 Clyde.]
Hoops. You could make a division out of SPFL teams that wear hoops: Celtic (green and white); Hamilton Accies (red and white); Partick Thistle (red and yellow); Morton (light blue and white); Alloa (black and yellow); Forfar (dark blue and light blue); East Stirlingshire (broad black and white); Queen's Park (narrow black and white). The owner of the barque Tay is evidently an East Stirlingshire supporter.
