CONFIMRED - Sean Morrison signs for Cardiff

[Big Foot]

+1 - Morro didn't need to give an interview now he's gone, clearly wanted to put the record straight.

Can only imagine what this will do to squad morale, Morro was a popular figure in the dressing room - wonder if other players will see Adkins' comments as an insult to their m8

I just hope they can keep professional and don't put in performances that will leave the berk fighting for his job.....

[leww_rfc]

There will be no morale loss, a big figure in the dressing room? Yes. But this is hardly going to cause mutiny against Adkins.

[Royal Lady]

Maybe they'll be wondering who his next escape goat will be....can't be Drenthe cos he's already banished him....

Or Adkins was right and Morrow was attempting to patch up his damaged reputation?

[leww_rfc]

Yeah I was thinking that, quite a cloudy reception awaiting his return to the Madejski you'd think.

Best m8s with club captain Karacan & also close to the likes of Gunter & Pearce - hey, stranger things have happened

Yeah, I bet he's shitting himself at the prospect of returning to 17,000 spastics in jester hats and wigs "booing" him

Genuinely think that if Adkins told Reading fans the sky was green, then you cretins would believe it

Equally if he told others it was blue they'd swear it was green.

It's the nature of us football fans generally though isn't it?. Nail your colours to the mast and never divert.

Every player has his price. £4m for a Championship defender is very good money. There won't be too many more defenders moving in this league for that sort of cash.

I don't think Morrison's comments gave any more insight into anything. Cardiff made a very good offer for him, his agent told him about it and he wanted to pursue it, Reading were happy with the offer made and said he could talk to Cardiff if he wanted to, off he went and got himself a contract.

However, none of that means that Reading didn't want to keep him, or that Morrison was desperate to go. It's just business. I'm not sure why some people are depserate to find someone to blame for him leaving. It's a good deal for all involved.

Thought Morrison spoke well this morning. Good luck to him at Cardiff. Hopefully he'll cost them a few points against us though!

Like I said on the page before m8, I just hope the players keep their professionalism levels as high as possible

Think it's more a case of Nigel says black, you say white. Until you pull your tongue out of Brian's crack, you'll never give NA a fair chance.

Looks like they did on Saturday against Ipswich. Looked like very good morale in the squad and everyone looked very tight knit.

Just listened to Morro on BBCRB and the story he put was a bit different. He said the approach and bid was made to the club after OGS watched him at Wigan. The club confirmed the bid was acceptable and notified the player. He said it came out of the blue and that he was happy here.
Made all the right noises about what RFC have done for him and that he hopes we go up with Cardiff.

Just listened to it again on BBCBerks and he doesn't say the club notified him - I think it was 'I was told' so it could have been his agent still. Also he's never going to say I went for the money is he?

How many other players leave and then give an interview a few days later. He didn't have to say anything at all.

Alright Ronan Keating.

[SydenhamRoyal]

The really big question, which noone has yet addressed, is why this is still on the rumours and gossip page.
