New Morton deal for Jim Duffy
Morton fans have been given further cause for celebration after manager Jim Duffy signed a one-year contract extension.
Duffy has penned a deal which ties him to Cappielow until summer 2019, 48 hours after Morton beat local rivals St Mirren 4-1 in the Ladbrokes Championship.
The former Dundee and Hibernian boss is in his fourth season as manager of the club where he made his name as a player. The 58-year-old led the Ton to the League One title in his first campaign and to the Championship play-offs and Betfred Cup semi-finals last term.
Chairman Douglas Rae told the club's official website: "He is an outstanding manager and very good with the players. He's strict, he works them hard, but he's a very, very fair man. A top guy.
"He's very loyal, very intelligent, very honest, and very supportive in everything in connection with the club. He's also a great tactician and great at reading games.
