I don't think it's fair to offer it to Steve Morison if there's no financial support. It won't go well for a new, inexperienced, championship manager and it won't be his fault. If people really want him then yes but it has to be with the caveat of two years and that we're very likely to end up in L1 next season. Again, that wouldn't be his fault if there's no money.
I'd rather see him stay with the U23s until the time is right and prioritise staying in the The Championship.
