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.

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.

    • Dear families,   My name is Eleanor. I’ve worked in NHS Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services for the past eight years, and I’m about to begin an Infant Observation course in preparation for psychotherapy training. I’m looking for a baby to observe as part of this training.   The observation involves me visiting a baby and their parent for one hour a week over two years, with the aim of deepening my understanding of early emotional and developmental processes. Taking part is a generous contribution to the training of future child psychotherapists — ultimately supporting the mental health of children and families.   Both of my own children were observed as babies, which I found to be a really positive experience. Having an observer gently witness my babies’ development helped me notice their weekly changes in a new way, and I came to appreciate the calm, consistent presence of a trained observer. I was sad when the observations ended!   If you — or someone you know — is expecting a baby due before the end of February*, I would love to hear from you. You can contact me at +44 7977 910018 or [email protected].   Best wishes, Eleanor
    • I rarely iron, so my massive ironing board is just taking up unnecessary space. Does anyone have one of those little ones that you can use on an ordinary table?
    • It's happened twice today, I've never had this happen before! Here's the second one. All I did was try to agree with a post in the lounge!
    • Now I'm having my hand slapped by some forum bot 😮 All I did was try to add a laughing emoji to ianr's post. This is obviously a message from the universe to tell me to get off my phone and get back to working my way through my very lengthy to do list 🤣 ETA: And it's just happened again when I tried to agree with a post in the lounge. OK universe, I give in. Back to the hideous task list.
