In case you haven't noticed, the Swansea game was last season with predominately players that weren't Morison’s and there has been a total rebuild this season and the style of football has changed. Even you have admitted that we have signed some decent players. To constantly harp on about what happened last season in the derby is ridiculous. He did the job he was employed to do and we finished comfortably in mid table. He deserved a chance to carry on the job he had started. Colwill and Davies have both been injured since the end of last season and unable to train or play, so to state they are being ‘held back’ is just plain wrong. You are just trying to appear clever with the benefit of hindsight imo.
Sounds like you’re saying you disagree with a club decision there.
I just can't for the life of me work out what the board expected. We've rebuilt a squad on peanuts. What did they think would happen?
Play offs? Top two?
Good luck finding a credible manager who wants to achieve something in the game.
Come and play under a trigger happy board, you'll have next to nothing to spend and have no support from above because there isn't anybody that knows diddly about running a football club. Form an orderly queue.
I’d say that doesn’t situations like this only highlight the need for a Director of Football, but Tan's dead set against one apparently and I suppose the thing is that you’ve got to think who’d be appointing the guy - we’d probably end up with club electrician doing the job.
.....you must have a very sensitive eye when it comes ot spotting improvement because I didn't see much..
I preferred what SM was doing compared to NW or MM but I think rather than keeping him on because of any perceived improvement I'd have kept him on because he is working on something long term and despite there only being crumbs of things to come, you have to give him time to experiment and find his feet ......the players too.
I was not in favour of Morison in the first place BUT this does not seem like a level-headed decision. It's seems a bit heat of the moment.
The football we have played is better than it’s been for years. Been a bit stale up front admittedly and results haven’t been great but I thought we were allowing a bedding in period.
I think there’s been some sort of incident or strong disagreement, which wouldn’t surprise me when you look at some of his interviews.
I think he deserved more than 10 games. 1 point off relegation, but 4 points off the playoffs. It’s pathetic. But it’s done so let’s see who they bring in. I’d like Nathan Jones..
I’m glad he’s gone - never warmed to Morison didn’t like what he did to young Isaak Davies and I definitely wanted Nathan to **** him up during their little Fracas the other week.

Nathan or Dyche for me
I think that public shaming soured a lot of people against Morison. May have upset one or two of the hierarchy as well. Morison never recovered from that imo.
I believe Jones is on a long term contract with Luton and would be expensive. Dyche probably waiting for Prem job, and may have been too close to Malky for Tan's liking.
Really not sure myself, perhaps Bellamy, but there again he has baggage.

what he did to young Davies was give him the entirety of his first team football in his career.
yes certain players he chewed out in public, but only the ones that he felt he could improve and work with, others like Pack et al were just quietly moved out of the team, not to be seen again. All the players he publicly criticised were given more chances.
Ask Davies whether he'd prefer getting hauled over the coals but actually playing under Morison, or someone like Warnock who praises all his players to the skies in public but wouldn't consider playing anyone under 25.
Not sure why this is funny - they have never been wrong before on anything City related ever ever - get your spoon ready for the humble pie you will be eating you non believer, 🥄

10 games. We're not f****ng Chelsea with a £300 million worth of players. It's crazy beyond belief. Morison's recent comments about performance over results wasn't an indication he didn't know this is a results business, more that the team was still finding it's feet, trying different options which couldn't really be tested in pre-season friendlies. I'm sure Morison wasn't expecting the team to fly up the table straight away - all the faults, weaknesses, come out in these games against established opposition, then bit by bit tighten up, improve discipline, and we'd be looking at 16th/17th position at the end of the season at worst. Job done, with the push for a play off with a few changes in the squad the next season.

Call me old fashioned but I believe the Isaak Davies Saga should have been done in the changing room or in private.
