Morton Have Approached Moore

According to George Mair's Scottish Sun match report for the Stenhousemuir versus Stirling Albion match Allan Moore has claimed that Morton have approached him about the job. Mair says: "Binos boss Allan Moore, who revealed he has been appraoched to take over at Morton".

It is unclear if Moore (pictured, above left) meant that he had been approached for an interview or to actually take over as manager. Either way it seems increasingly likely that should Douglas Rae decide that James Grady and Allan McManus are not the men for the job in the long term then Moore will be the new manager.

Whoever the new manager will be the appointment isn't likely to be made until after the Dunfermline match on Saturday. Last Saturday's Greenock Telegraph quoted Rae as saying the Grady / McManus partnership will be in charge for the trip to East End Park: "No, I will be giving them this week's game [against Dundee this afternoon] and next week as well."
