Dunfermlin­e Duffy’s correct call

-

As Morton keeper Derek Gaston extricated the metaphoric­al kitchen sink from his net, and Jai Quitongo over-celebrated the greatest highway robbery since Dick Turpin, one was left to reflect on the highlights of an entertaini­ng cup tie.

The pitch was truly remarkable. Nicky Clark and Declan Mcmanus were a constant menace. James Craigen may have resolved our glaring midfield deficiency. Gaston gave us the save of the season. No one died of hypothermi­a!

The toss of a coin decided the match. Jim Duffy had done his homework, and forced the Pars to play away from the atmospheri­c Home Stand, where most fans were huddled, in the second half.
