Morison on the other hand is completely untried at first team level. And I would guess (or hope!) that he has been told he will still get his old job back if things do not work out
It was said that we were appointing a manager after just three games in charge, I used Gerrard as an example to show that other clubs do not appoint managers on the sort of short term, counter productive (in terms of club development) ways as we have for our last two managers. If he has anything about him, Morison would have a long term medium to long term vision for the club, but he can’t do anything about that because, as they do so often, Tan, Dalman and Choo are just thinking one season at a time. If they think Morison is going to keep us up they should back that up by giving him a longer contract, but, in typical Cardiff style we veer from one extreme to the other - if we continue to offer managerial jobs a few months at a time, we’ll only attract a certain quality of outside applicant.
