Morison OUT

Re: Morison OUT

There may come a time where the cheapest option is to cut their losses on him

They'll give him a new contract if we don't go down and then sack him when we're bottom of the table after a dozen games next season.

I can't see it. They'll know they'll be in the same position. It's a massive summer and the club cannot afford to make a mistake... so they'll give it to Morison.

Re: Morison OUT

I posted this yesterday but this seems a better place for it.

Morison had an impossible task -

change the style, bring in younger players and utilise the squad he inherited. These are contradictory aims. Several of the senior players in the squad cannot trap or pass the ball. The Championship is notoriously brutal for those who haven't played at that level before.

Those having a go at Morison with increasing frequency seem to think that the manager could do much better. It is clear that he has changed our style as much as is possible with this squad.

Now the manager is called upon by many, understandably, to change our defensive system as well as our style.

Mark Hudson is supposed to be our defence coach. What defence? Why is he not responsible for us playing the current "system"?


Morison has an impossible task and I think is largely doing what he can, which may not be very much, but he certainly needs time.

We haven't been in such a parlous position for years, but there are many games to go this season.

Patience is needed.

This isn’t American football. Morison is responsible over Hudson because ultimately he picks the team, he picks the formation, he picks the tactics. Yes there may be input from his coaches but ultimately the buck stops with Morison.

He keeps picking 3 at the back even though it’s clearly not working, he keeps picking Flint and Nelson even though they are at fault most games for our goals.

As for picking Pack to start ahead of Wintle yesterday, utterly ridiculous.

Morison is so far out of his depth it’s unbelievable. He is nowhere near ready to manage at this level. He has the arrogance of Jose Mourinho without the ability to back it up.

I think you're probably right, unfortunately.

The game that we would need to win/draw, that ultimately keeps us in the Championship, will see post-match scenes of the players throwing their shirts into the crowd, as the fans scramble frantically to get one belonging to their heroes (failed heroes?). All capped off by Morison doing a 'fist-pump' right in front of them.... and all is well within CCFC World, again.

For all the stupid things he's been doing lately I'd settle for him to carefully explain what on Earth induced him to select Pack over Wintle. I think it's either misfiring neurons or there was a typo on his team sheet. Maybe Steve will pass the blame on to his secretary.

who knows, perhaps pack was doing well in Training, or he didn't want 2 new faces in the middle at the same time until they've had more of a chance to bed in.
or maybe Wintle was carrying a knock and wouldn't manage 90 minutes.
pack has been a big part of our defensive woes though I think this season. hopefully Wintle can continue to make an impact

He keeps picking Nelson and Flint? What's the alternative? Flint and Morrison? Morrison and Nelson? As for being arrogant, Steve Morison is the boss. I expect him to act like one. Don't you?

The alternative is drop the back 3 which isn’t working and play Morrison and McGuiness as a pair. The alternative is drop one of them for Morrison. They are not doing enough to retain their place in the side. Morrison was excellent against Preston in the cup.

Being arrogant doesn’t not make you a good boss. If you think so then I pity your colleagues.

Maybe it was even as simple as "he'll be up for it and want to put one over his old club"

That sort of stuff though often leads to what we saw from Pack for the first half an hour or so on Saturday - all he did was go around fouling people.

Oh I don't think Pack should have started, I was just trying to think of why he did
