Reserve league: Morton 1 - 0 St Mirren (yesterday)
The League of Ireland First Division started on the weekend, and Longford Town showed up for their match with Shamrock II and beat them 2 - 0.
How soon could Morton be playing Clydebank again?
If the West of Scotland league is created this summer (looks likely) and Clydebank join it (looks very likely), and Clydebank win it in 2020-21 and earn promotion to the Lowland League, Morton could meet them in the 2021-22 Scottish Cup. If Clydebank win the 2021-22 Lowland League and promotion to the SPFL, and at the same time Morton suffer two relegations in three years, they could both be in League Two in 2022-23.
