BFS never wanted him - not saying that contributed to him becoming a little swine but it probably didn't help.


Don't know what the answer is. If he's guilty then I suspect a suspended sentence, big fine and lots of community service (hopefully with relevance to the crime and the need for people in his privileged position to set an example to young men) and coupled with some anger-management &/or alcohol abuse treatment.


The question is, what can you do with lary little gits who think they can do whatever they like and, thanks to the money thrown at them and the fawning of clubs and agents etc., usually can?


If we had a good man-manager I'd say keep him and he could turn it around and become something good.


We don't.


We have a big, stubborn, ignorant, narrow-minded, dinosaur, arsehole of a manager.


So he's probably better off gone.

Didn't say he was too blame - just that he is not the kind of man capable of mentoring or otherwise turning the player around. If SAF thought Morrison was worth it or needed him and was in a position where he had to make the best of what he had I think he WOULD have persevered with him - also what Otta said.


> Plus he has less choice than SAF


All the more reason to try and turn a sows ear into a silk purse, Just that BFS's idea of developing Morrison into a man and a player would be to tell him to "Bloody smarten yer ideas up lad, or else! Now let's see if yer can hoof this ball up to the big lad in the middle there."

Fergie thought very highly of Morrison, the best youngster he'd ever worked with, high praise indeed considering the likes of Scholes, Giggs etc. Fergie didn't let him go because he knew he would eventually be retiring. Morrison had major disciplinary issues both inside and outside the club, charged for assault, witness intimidation etc. He was in with a bad lot, and the club thought he would stand a better chance of making a go of his life in football by getting him out of Manchester and away from his gangsta cronies. One weekend back in Manchester and he's in trouble again. When someone has severe behavioural issues like Morrison, clubs and managers can only do so much. Where are his parents/family in all this? One day he might wake up and realise what a fcukwit he's been, but somehow I doubt it...

I think he could play quite a bit. They have only one real recognised holding midfielder at the club; Fernandinho, and if he gets injured Lampard can fit in. They have plenty of games coming up in all competitions so the squad will need a bit of rotation. The big plus for them is that Frank is a proven winner and has bags of experience to pass on to the younger players.

      Great news! Peckham Rye station to reclaim its public square by next year!

      By CPR Dave · Posted

      Do you believe this is actually going to happen?!   Demolition was supposed to start in the summer but the Labour government have pulled the plug. Even Labour councillors have had to begin petitioning the government to keep the project alive. https://www.southwarklabour.com/2025/10/03/labour-councillors-launch-petition-for-peckham-rye-station-upgrade/ It's dead in the water surely?

      Oh David / Is David Lammy Toast?

      Yep CRP Dave. It reminded me of Jess Phillips a couple of weeks ago, when the grooming gangs enquiry started going tits up.  It's not very statesman-like to lose your shit like that in the chamber. It's one unedifying display after another.

      He should be. His behaviour has been appalling. Refusing to comply with a Speaker's request to come back to the HoC and explain himself shows utter contempt to parliament and the electorate. If he had any any integrity he would resign. Nothing to do with the prisoner, but all to do with his arrogance and contempt. This Labour party don't have any integrity at all though. We are two weeks away from the Chancellor of the Exchequer breaking a fundamental manifesto commitment. Breaking promises like demeans the entire contract between voters and MPs. If she doesn't resign for breaking those promises (she won't) then all manifesto promises going forward have to also be treated as lies, not worth the paper they are written on.  She should have already resigned herself for the breaking the law over her failure to register as a landlord. They are an absolute disgrace. And whilst all this farce plays out in Downing St where the fuck is the Prime Minister? Nowhere to be seen, unanswerable to the public about this disgraceful shambles.
