    "At times, I think we played some fantastic football. Big George [Oakley], what a finish for the third.

    Dundee United manager Jim Goodwin tells BBC Scotand: "Really disappointed to lose the game.

    "They're a very aggressive, physical team and we didn't handle that aspect of the game well enough for two of the three goals.

    "We've got a stonewall penalty, Kevin Holt is wrestled to the ground. We haven't managed the game well enough in the key moments.

    "Today, we got bullied at times, which disappoints me. It's a missed opportunity given the way the Raith Rovers result has gone."

    FT: Partick Thistle 4-0 Arbroath

    Arbroath manager Jim McIntyre tells BBC Scotland: "First half, we got into a lot of good areas.

    Despite that late winner, Morton stay fifth after Airdrie shocked Raith Rovers at the Excelsior.

    The top two both losing means the gap remains at three points, though United hold a game in hand.

    Queen's Park's win last night becomes even bigger as Arbroath were battered at Firhill.

    Jim Duffy
    Former Morton manager on BBC Sportsound

    George Oakley today, that's the best striker performance I've seen in a long time.

    He did everything. Held the ball up, ran the channels. Sometimes people say strikers do other things for the team, but he went and got a hat-trick as well.

    It was nothing more than he deserves.

    Ayr can't say they didn't throw everything at this one.

    Mark Ridgers made a brilliant save at 3-1 and sub Francis Amartey cracked a thunderous shot off the bar late on.

    Inverness held off the rally from the home side to earn their first win in six games, and to move a place above Ayr in the Championship.

    No, they won't. The boos ring around Tannadice.

    Dundee United had all the momentum after Kai Fotheringham and Louis Moult pegged back George Oakley's early double in a rollercoaster first half.
