TRICKY Morton wide man Michael Garrity says he's delighted to have been able to try and repay the trust put in him by Dougie Imrie - after bouncing back from a poor showing against Livingston by netting the winner against Raith Rovers.

Ton were staring the relegation play-off spot in the face after surrendering a two goal lead in Fife before Garrity popped up in the right place at the right time to snatch all three points and move within a point of the Stark's Park side.

And he was pleased to give the reaction he did after being dragged off at half time in Ton's disappointing SPFL Trust Trophy exit on Tuesday night - as he looks to take his chances when they come along.

He told the Tele: "We left it late - but I'm delighted to get the three points. It'd have been a shame to have not gotten a victory after being 2-0 up, so we're just delighted to have gotten the three points.

"It's been a really tough run - but the gaffer had told us to keep our heads down and doing what he's asking of us.

"We did that against Raith Rovers and thankfully we got the win."

"From a personal point of view i'm delighted to have been able to repay the gaffer with a goal.

"Tuesday night, for my standards, wasn't good enough and I was hooked at half time as a result.

"That meant I had to try and bounce back by getting my head down and just being ready for my next opportunity. That came for me today and thankfully I've been able to score the winner.

"He's always telling me about making that back post run and it's paid off today - there's nothing better than getting that winning feeling and being able to contribute too it."
