Morton stopper says side can roll with the punches and bounce back from Firhill draw
MORTON stopper Morgan Boyes says his side have shown they can deal with the pressure teams can put on them and that's why he's backed them to bounce back from their Firhill disappointment.
The Welsh defender believes that rolling with the punches is part and parcel of playing in the Championship.
His comments came after his side did well to navigate pressure put on them by Partick Thistle in Saturday's 2-2 draw and hit their opposition where it hurt.

He told the Tele: "I think in this league you're going to have to be able to deal with the pressure, that's just the time of the game.
"It's going to be coin flip on who's on top at that specific moment in time.
"In the last few games we've shown that we can roll with the punches and bounce back in games.
"We do though need to take confidence that we've not been beaten, we've got a busy schedule coming up with all these games in quick succession.
"We need to make sure that we use this break to the best that we can, move on from our disappointment of conceding so late and then make sure that we come back firing on all cylinders for the games."
