MORTON midfielder Alan Power says that he and his team-mates have let Cappielow boss Dougie Imrie down with their poor form.

The veteran midfielder today opened up on a difficult start to the season at his new club.

In a candid interview, the former Kilmarnock favourite admits it’s taken him time to get up to what he believes is full speed in front of the backline.

But despite being stuck at the foot of the Championship, Power insists that there is belief within the dressing room that they can save themselves.

He told the Tele: “The gaffer and his assistant Andy Millen have been great with us, the training is good every week and we’re all unified in turning it around.

“As a group of lads, we feel like we’re letting them down really because we know that we can play better than we’re actually doing.

“It’s a team effort, but we’re confident it can all click, and in this league all it takes is a couple of wins to turn your season around.

“I’d say I’m really enjoying my football, I'm still getting loads of touches of the ball which has been really good.

“But to be honest, I’d rather get hardly any if it means we get three points on a Saturday.

“I think it took me a while to adjust to the league a little bit with its pace and intensity. It took a bit of getting used to but I think I’ve got the other side of that.

“I’m not just speaking on behalf of myself, I think everyone thinks we’re playing quite well and if we can cut out the mistakes then we’ll be okay.

“The games that we’ve played early on in the season have been pretty close maybe barring the exception of the Arbroath game where we really underperformed.

“But up until this point we’ve been conceding really poor goals and not taking our chances that come our way. Hopefully that can change now.”

Greenock Telegraph:

Power admits that the squad share the Cappielow support’s disappointment at results so far this season.

He said: “We understand the fans’ frustrations, we do, because we know that they can see that there are performances in there but we’ve just not put it all together.

“We’re conceding silly goals and not taking our chances. That’s all the difference is sometimes.

“If we weren't performing well and not creating chances then we’d have a bit more to worry about, we just need to take them now.

“It has been tough but we’re not panicking as a team and we don’t want anyone else to just yet, hopefully our luck can change soon.”
