    Sensible move I think, I also hadn't seen what Kieffer had said about him, which gives me a bit of confidence https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/59192508

    I thought that and then I remembered Kieffer's (alleged) Covid jab decision!

    Is it? It seems a risky one to me

    I think whoever takes over it’s going to be risky.

    I think it’s the right choice though.

    Sensible until the end of the season rather than a 3 year deal I meant. Not risk free of course with where we are in the table but I do think there's 3 worse teams than us in this division once we get a bit of confidence back

    Why only until the end of the season?

    So he goes on a great run before the 2 year deal that means we fall short again

    No idea really. Lots of people will say it’s sensible but so are the alternatives

    Win the next three games and give him a lifetime contract.

    Probably sorting out who looks after what in terms of backroom staff and u23s, before announcement.

    Love to see Hudson given a chance somewhere. Knows the club and well respected.

    I'm pleased, we've seen an improvement in passing, better results, less hoof ball, and the players seem happy and motivated. If he just keeps us out of trouble but we don't improve beyond that then the club can look at it again in the summer. If we are looking a better team by then he can get a longer contract.

    Exactly. And hopefully if he's not taken on as permanent manager he can go back to the U23s. I think it makes sense.

    In the absence of a suitable candidate with good Championship experience this has to be a sensible option given that he know the set up and the players.

    What are you advocating, Bob? That they give him a two year contract off the back of three games in charge?

    I think it's the sensible decision to give him at least until the end of the season.

    Because there’s no continuity and it seems that they’re putting a young manager/coach on an extended trial - if they trust him enough for what will be a period in charge of nearly seven months, I don’t see why they can’t go further than that. Just appointing managers for a period of months is just an extension of the short termism which has cost us dearly under Vincent Tan - the two years given to McCarthy was a mistake, but that shouldn’t put them into the frame of mind that they don’t offer longer contracts.

    They're also giving him the opportunity of his career after a very small sample size of games which is reward enough for him on his current performance. I'd say this is mutually beneficial, and if we were to just appoint him on a 2 year contract and it goes tits up then we're paying off potentially 3 managers at once whilst being cash strapped - I'm unsure when Harris' ends.

    For once, this in my opinion is a reasonable decision from City and hopefully Morison is rewarded with a big contract and pay increase come next May, along with the young players who I presume will assist the effort to keep us up.

    Club haven't got a clue what to do. Will be hard for Morison to go back to u23s if this goes pear shaped though.

    I don't think that he's done enough to be given the job until the end of the season or longer.

    Yeah, I agree.

    I have always liked managers who have rolling one year contracts as well. It suggests a balanced relationship between employer and employee.

    Another team gave a young manager a three and a half year contract after no games in charge today - that’s what tends to happen when other teams appoint a manager.
