Would leave us very short of cover at the back!

    Saves some wages so we could be top of the best behaved FFP table

    Wouldn't be happy with us sending him out on loan. Our bench lacks experience as it is.

    Can't blame him for going IF he goes .. a stalwart for 3 years and now confined to the bench .. I would hope that this will only be temporary

    Blimey, paper thin squad as it is...let's all keep everything crossed we don't get any injuries or suspensions or anything that normally happens to centre halves in the course of a season...

    Can't criticise Morro, though - pretty clear Bob does not fancy him...(unlike @Curb_It‌)

    Frankly, after that ridiculously inept bit of defending against Rodellaga Bob could be forgiven for thinking he doesn't want his place back.
    We need the numbers though

    Morrison is too good to continously sit on the bench. But he doesn't seem to be likely to dislodge bikey or ben haim any time soon. I don't like not having strong cover but I wouldn't begrudge him wanting 1st team football. Just hope our youth are good enough for temp cover if needed and we have a good recall clause in the deal

    Don't think any of us did.

    Big Bob must have some other irons in the fire.

    If it pays for a loan inwards, I wouldn't mind it.

    I wonder...

    Or is this an opportunity to blood another Charlton youngster ?

    One other point: Neither Bikey nor Ben Haim are getting any younger .. good quality central defenders at this level are both at a premium and expensive .. Morrison is under contract until 2016 .. I hope that he is kept to that contract even if it means time out on loan and a period of pistofedness (!!) warming the bench

    Maybe we're hoping Gomez can do a job at centre back

    Let's hope Bikey and Tal Ben Haim are basically indestructible.

    Step up Terrell Thomas. Can learn loads from TBH. Doubt Morro can.

    Stupid in my opinion. We 've just seen what happens when you get a few injuries upfront - what would happen if Bikey got sent off (3 match ban) or injured.

    Pointless and stupid if we let him go.

    When is Gomez back from injury?

    Seems odd but expect the unexpected with Roland.

    If we are going to keep Gomez long term then he needs to be involved. Sending Morrison out on loan ensures that he is on the bench week in and week out if fit. As a long term prospect Gomez could and should be a lot better than Morrison.

    It also frees up wages for a possible incoming. We were linked with Nick Kuipers recently, could this free up wages for a possible Jan bid?

    Would be strange (especially while Gomez is injured) but I doubt Morrison is in Peeters long term plans. He's also someone that wants regular football and has proven he can play at this level for us and Leicester.

    Odd but I hope that Morro stays happy, he deserves that.

    He should be sacked for that, not sent out on loan...

    Bob is obviously not keen on Morrison so no problem for me that he furthers his career elsewhere. He deserves that. I suspect we already have the cover for Bikey and TBH at the club and Morrisons wages will free up some money for January aquisitions.

    The transformation continues.

    Gomez easily able to step in, Big Bob must see something in Thomas or one of the other youngsters

    Was at the training ground yesterday and had a chat with Morro. Obviously disappointed not being in the 1st team, but no inkling that he was off to Brum! Doesn't seem sensible as not sure why we would want to strengthen rivals
