Sludge seems to think that's all you need to do is roll up your sleeves, show some fight and that's enough. Ability doesn't come into it, hence his love of players like Willie Boland.Quote:

Wow....what a compliment....merci.Quote:
But Maurice, you sexy anglo-franco stud - giving Morrison a job, which you have no specific idea what that might be, IS nothing more than sentimentality, surely?
If you disagree with me, I will refuse to view any of the links you provide for City games!
I am just saying that there is no-one in the club hierarchy that seems to have the passion and will to win that he obviously has. Bloody hell, if nothing else he could be a useful sports psychologist!! As has been said...Hudson was a good club servant....but a motivator he is NOT!
"A bit surprised at that. Yes is is too slow for what we need now, BUT he is a leader and a motivator, something we lack right now!! Surely a role could have been fashioned for him.....unless we are THAT hard up....."Quote:

Totally the right call in the embargo circumstances
We need players on the pitch who will fight for the teamQuote:

We don’t have a very strong XI though.Quote:

Without the ability to bring anyone in we should have kept Morrison until at least the end of the season.
Sorry to see him go, but we could all see his best days were behind him, over the last half season he played for us. Slow and ponderous - it was sad to watch. He's been a great player and captain for us over the years, but it's time to wave him off, and wish him all the best.
Now, about this 'administration' comment. Where did that come from? Is it a direct quote, or just a rumour?
Bale and those types of players go missing when the dark nights are here and it's time to roll up your sleeves and grind out the pointsQuote:

No we'd be bottom of the league if their performances at the world cup are anything to go by :hehe:Quote:

Love Morrison, what a captain and brilliant player. What an iconic moment versus Hull with that goal.
As soon as he got that injury we knew it was the end though. Wish him well.
Sludge, you just accused world class players like Bale and Ronaldo of going missing on dark nights. Seriously, you've said some madness in the past, but if you believe that then you must be twisted up.Quote:

Morrison isn't near match fitness and who knows if he will recover fully after his injury. Maybe he has other ideas or offers and fancies a new challenge..
He's a leader but some fans need to take off the rose tinted specs
Is this a direct quote from Hudson? Did he actually say that he thinks we will be in administration soon.Quote:
