Morton ever present Jim McAlister will miss his first game of the season after his booking (for diving) at Almondvale on Saturday took him over the 18 point threshold.McAlister - and Stevie Masterton,who was also booked - will miss the trip to McDiarmid Park to play St. Johnstone on the 2nd of May. The suspension comes when a player goes over 18 disciplinary points - which can be accumulated over two seasons.
Jim (pictured, above) is our only ever present this season. In the past four seasons (2004/05 to 2007/08) he started every match except two: in the first match of 2004/05 he was a used substitute and he was rested for the last league match of 2005/06 - a meaningless match against Forfar which preceeded the play-offs with Peterhead. He started every match in 2006/07 and 2007/08.
