History Morton's greatest success came in April 1922 when they defeated Rangers 1-0 in the Scottish Cup Final. Jimmy Gourlay scored the winning goal, direct from a free kick in the 11th minute. Strangely the Greenock public were denied the chance to celebrate with their triumphant heroes as straight after the match Morton boarded a train for Hartlepool to play the local side in a pre-arranged friendly match. The celebrations were delayed until the Wednesday when 10,000 locals turned out at Cappielow Park to celebrate. For other uses, see Rangers F.C. (disambiguation). ...

Morton have made two other major cup final appearances. On Saturday 17 April 1948 Morton drew 1-1 with Rangers in the Scottish Cup Final. Morton's goal was a free kick scored by Jimmy White. The match was replayed on Wednesday 21 April 1948. This time Rangers won 1-0 after extra time. The goal was said to be highly controversial because it was claimed that Morton goalkeeper Jimmy Cowan was blinded by the flash of a camera. These matches were significant because of the huge crowds they attracted. The first match was played in front of 131,629; the replay in front of 133,629 ( At the time a British record attendance for a midweek match). It has been said that Greenock was empty on these two days. Morton's third and final major cup final to date was in the Scottish League Cup and this was played on Saturday 26 October 1963 when Rangers (who Morton have faced in all three final appearances) won by 5 goals to nil (HT: 0-0) in front of 103,000 supporters.

During the Second World War 'guest' players were common at clubs throughout Great Britain. Morton were particularly fortunate in this respect in that two of English football's greatest ever players turned out at Cappielow. Sir Stanley Matthews and Tommy Lawton made several guest appearances for Morton. When Morton reached the 1948 Scottish Cup Final both players sent telegrams wishing goodluck to their former club. Matthews simply said 'I am delighted to see Morton reach the final of the Scottish Cup'. Lawton's was more expressive, he said 'Memories of happy days during the war at Cappielow compel me to wish the Morton manager & the boys all the best of luck in their cup final at Hampden'. The playing squad was further strengthened by the signings of American John Dillinger and Edward Kelly from Australia. Sir Stanley Matthews (February 1, 1915 - February 23, 2000) was a football player of genius and one of the greats of the English game. ...

The club hit a terrible period of financial distress in 2001. This culminated in the team being relegated from the First Division at the end of the 2000/01 season after a 6-year stay. Furthermore, the club slid into administration. The club's financial problems continued to affect its progress on-the-field, as the team struggled to adapt to life in the Second Division. A 4-0 defeat at Queen of the South on April 27, 2002 confirmed back-to-back relegations for Morton.

In season 2002-03, the team found themselves playing in the Third Division for the first time ever. The club's financial situation was resolved by the takeover by current chairman Douglas Rae, and the team discovered some success at this level. A season-long challenge for promotion culminated in a 1-0 victory over Peterhead securing the Third Division championship at the first opportunity, in front of a Third Division record crowd of 8497 fans.

Also in the 2002-03 season, chairman Douglas Rae appointed John "Cowboy" McCormack, previously manager of Queen's Park F.C.. McCormack oversaw the winning of the Third Division Championship and a dominant start to the 2003-04 season, only for the team to fall away after the turn of the year, and finish in 4th place, well outside the promotion places. This came after being 12 points ahead in the Championship race at the half way stage. This led to unfounded allegations that some players had placed large bets on nearest rivals Airdrie United to win the league, which they eventually did.

Jim McInally was announced as McCormack's successor, and in his first season as manager the club failed to gain promotion to the Scottish First Division by a single point, finishing behind Stranraer in 3rd place. Morton failed to gain promotion to the First Division during the 2005-06 season. Finishing 2nd was not enough, as the SFL playoffs meant that only the championship-winning team would be promoted automatically. Gretna won the division, so Morton entered play-offs alongside Peterhead (3rd), Partick Thistle (4th), and Stranraer (9th in Division One.) Morton's first playoff match was against Peterhead, and the Greenock side were defeated 1-0 over two legs, the only goal a penalty in the second match at Balmoor.

A week after a 9-1 defeat of Forfar at Cappielow Park, Morton achieved promotion to the First Division in 2007. Despite a 2-0 defeat away to Raith Rovers on 14th April 2007, Morton were crowned Second Division Champions when their nearest challengers in the title race, Stirling Albion, lost 3-2 against Ayr United, thus sustaining Morton's 7 point lead at the top with 2 games left to play.

Colours The team's home strip is traditionally a blue and white hooped shirt with white shorts and white socks, though season 2006-07 saw the team playing a blue and white striped shirt with white shorts and blue socks. Short-lived yet distinctive designs have been used over the years, including sky blue and white stripes in the style of the Argentine national team and even a blue Morton tartan. The away strip tends to vary much more; for the 2003/04 season it was an all yellow outfit, changing in 2004/05 to all white, which in turn became the 3rd team strip in 2005/2006, with the special re-issue of the blue Morton tartan strip. The sponsor's logo on the strip is that of Millions, a Scottish candy produced by the club chairman's confectionery concern, Golden Casket Ltd. The origin of the blue and white hoops is unclear, although most people agree that it is good at hiding the dirt. Competitive football has been played in Scotland since 1890. ...

Stadium Their stadium is Cappielow Park in Greenock. Cappielow's etymology is allegedly of Scandinavian origin, although details of this are sketchy. It is generally thought to be an archaic norse word for "plague pit", and the club keep up with this tradition to the present day. It has been home to the club since the early part of the 20th century. Refurbishment has recently been completed, and presently the capacity is around 11,000, with 5,741 of these being seated. The area behind the western goal is known as the Wee Dublin end, which contains non-backed bench seating, converted from the old terracing that once stood there. The main stand contains plastic bucket seating to replace the old wooden benches that were a fixture of the ground until the late 1990s. The "Cowshed" lies to the north of the pitch; formerly a fully terraced arena for both home and away supporters (complete with segregation fence down the middle), it is now for home supporters only, with much of the frontal terracing removed, and plastic bucket seats occupying its place. Behind the eastern goal is the "Sinclair Street" end, with uncovered terracing. Download high resolution version (2160x1440, 713 KB) Cappielow Park, Greenock Home to Greenock Morton F.C.

Rivalry The club has a fierce local rivalry with St. Mirren, from Paisley, although St Mirren's original derby rivals were fellow Paisley senior side Abercorn F.C., who went bankrupt in the 1920s, while Morton's were Port Glasgow Athletic F.C., who ceased running a senior team in the Scottish League in 1912. Port Glasgow Athletic even shared Morton's Cappielow ground from 1917 until 1921 when the needs of World War One saw their ground compulsorily purchased for housing for the local shipyards.

Other Rivalries Morton have also had a traditional, although smaller, rivalry with Kilmarnock although this has diminished in recent years due to Killie's long stay in the SPL and Morton's stay in the lower divisions. Although more recent rivalries have developed with Airdrie United (due, in part, to a Morton fan running the line for a game after the referee got injured) and Dumbarton and Ayr United who, like Morton, don't have their traditional local rival to play in recent years. To an even smaller extent Partick Thistle and Peterhead matches have shown to be important to fans of both sides. For the town in Virginia, USA, see Kilmarnock, Virginia. ...
