There may have been various factors at play which brought about that situation, but ultimately it's on the manager. After all, he'd had long enough.

As for his views on Etete, I recall Morison got quite arsey with a journalist who dared to suggest that Etete was one for the future rather than the present. But then he's a bit thick, so I suppose we should make allowances.
I'm not sure you can lay all the blame at Morisons feet for that, he would have wanted a striker in as much as anyone, but in the end had to make do with Watters. Davies was't available at all, Etete was for 4 games and he had Robinson for 3 I think?
I think they were probably expecting to get Hugill back, but Norwich decided to hang onto him until January .
plus there weren't that many of that type of player available during that window, and we weren't the only championship club who were desperate for one.

if we had got a Hugill or a Kaba in the summer then I think Morison would probably still be here.
