In January apparently
I imagine we couldn’t sign him even if we wanted to, given the embargo for the next few years?
He was told at the end of november 2022. He also thinks the 'club will go in to administration soon' as it's in 'such a mess'.
All the best. A brilliant servant.
A fit Morrison could have been a huge boost in staying up.
Gutting, just gutting.
Hull away was one of the best days of my life. Thanks for everything skipper :ayatollah:
Will be very disappointed to see him go if correct

Confirmed by the club. Wrong move imo

Mozza added: "No amount of words will be ever be enough to tell you what this Club means and will always mean to me. The last eight and a half years have been filled with some of the most incredible moments and memories. To every staff member and player I’ve ever had the joy of working with, thank you. You’ve made me a better person and I’ve treasured every moment. To the most incredible fans, my biggest thank you is to you. You are the heartbeat of Cardiff City. I always gave 100% and I leave proud and honoured to have had the opportunity to play so many games for this wonderful Club. Good luck for the future, Bluebirds."
I thought he would have had a part to play when fit, lets face it, he is great I either box, I thought he would see the season out here, then move to U23 coach and in a few weeks 1st Team manager
Me too, I definitely think he's got a couple of years left in him if he can get full fitness back.Quote:

I obviously don't know where he stands in terms of getting back to fitness, but if he does stand a good chance then it's a big blow to lose such a player at this point.

He's only 31! He won't retire for a good few years, especially after spending the last 9 months rehabbing his knee. Good luck to him.Quote:

Best of luck to him in the future, hope he finds a new club soon.
He has looked very slow and ponderous in the u23 matches he's played recently.
If this month is decision time for whether the club could offer him a contract or not (even just one to the summer) there can't be much surprise that they passed. Peak Mozzer would be immense (at both ends of the pitch) but he is not anywhere near that level of fitness.
Maybe he will end up at Derby now they have rubbished the Curtis Nelson links for the nth time, and play on until the normal age of Derby central defenders (57).
I wasn't sure about him at the start - not helped by 'that video' - but he went on to be a great player and captain for the club.
Good luck in the future Mozzer.
He wants to stay, The club has no money and need to offload anyone and everyone. administration is coming. *bookmarked
Yes, good luck to him. If he does decide to carry on playing it certainly won't be at Championship level.Quote:

A voice of reason. We have to be brutally honest, he'd be a liability in defence.Quote:

Things are that mad pal! administration won't be long.Quote:

And look at how he has played throughout his career, he's been very physical, taken some big knocks. The other thing is that he is only going to get slower and it's not like his game is based around positioning. He's done, we wont see him again, and if we do, it'll be brief.Quote:

Perhaps you would like his presence in the changing room - geeing-up the boys?
Why don't we just remember the Morrison that we all fondly treasure?
Him trying to turn back time will end in tears.
Well said, bang on the money!Quote:

If Morrison's legs have gone, we can't afford him to take up a place in the squad with the embargo. If we resign him, we can't bring back McGuinness for example.Quote:

What have we got left? A train crash, dog's breakfast, pig's ear?
All sounds very sad and someone has made a right balls up to see us in this state.
