Morton Interesed In Allan McManus

Morton have been linked with a move for former Airdrie and St. Johnstone defender Allan McManus.

According to Tayside and Fife local newspaper The Courier Morton, Dundee and Livingston are battling for his signature.

Name: Allan McManus
Age: 33 (17.11.1974)
Position: Central Defender
Nationality: Scottish
Height: 6' 1"
Former Clubs: Hearts, Livingston, Alloa, Airdrie, Ayr, St. Johnstone

This is a rumour I've heard in the past week and I'd be quite happy if it turned out to be true.

We have also been linked with moves for Queen's Park's Stuart Kettlewell and Jon Newby who was recently released by Morecambe. The rumours appeared on football messageboards and both claim that the stories linking us with these players had appeared in newspapers - I couldn't find any links to the articles.

I met Allan last night and his preference would be Morton as he is local to renfrewshire..but think Livvy or Dundee have more cash....but travel would be a factor for him!!

Cheers for the update.

I like the way you got around saying he was born in Paisley by saying he is 'local to renfrewshire'.
