I very much doubt we offered double what Franchise offered?! Title: Re: Clinton Morrison Post by: walrus on Thursday, September 22, 2011, 11:04:45 I dunno, it feels like the days of being the poor relation are gone. We're not sitting on Sheikh money, but I think we're doing alright. Admittedly, it seems doubtful we'd pay double that of Franchise but nice to linked with such deals...
Title: Re: Clinton Morrison Post by: Don Rogers Shop on Thursday, September 22, 2011, 11:06:02 Chesterfield are paying most of clarkes wages so it wouldn't suprise me if we offered a fair amount
Title: Re: Clinton Morrison Post by: mrverve on Thursday, September 22, 2011, 11:12:59 I think his Mrs is from Swindon.
Title: Re: Clinton Morrison Post by: sonicyouth on Thursday, September 22, 2011, 11:16:18 Chesterfield are paying most of clarkes wages this makes me feel happy Title: Re: Clinton Morrison Post by: LucienSanchez on Thursday, September 22, 2011, 11:19:16 Am i being stupid? The headline "Morrison rejects Swindon’s load bid for Sheffield Wednesday’s Di Canio" makes no sense to me...

The headline "Morrison rejects Swindons load bid for Sheffield Wednesdays Di Canio" makes no sense to me... What did you expect? The paper's from 'Ooop North', makes sense that you can't understand what they're saying. Title: Re: Clinton Morrison Post by: Processed Beats on Thursday, September 22, 2011, 11:27:19 Am i being stupid? The headline "Morrison rejects Swindon’s load bid for Sheffield Wednesday’s Di Canio" makes no sense to me... Noticed this too! Title: Re: Clinton Morrison Post by: walrus on Thursday, September 22, 2011, 11:37:13 And me... I assumed it was some swipe at Swindon about Sheff Wednesday having more of a claim to di Canio, but maybe it's me being overly defensive...
Title: Re: Clinton Morrison Post by: Samdy Gray on Thursday, September 22, 2011, 11:40:14 It's just t'northerners not grasping t'proper use of t'words and t'grammar.

The headline "Morrison rejects Swindon’s load bid for Sheffield Wednesday’s Di Canio" makes no sense to me... Typo, trade a D for an N Title: Re: Clinton Morrison Post by: LucienSanchez on Thursday, September 22, 2011, 11:45:08 i let the typo slide, it's terrible all round... makes the Adver look well written/edited
Title: Re: Clinton Morrison Post by: A Gent Orange on Thursday, September 22, 2011, 14:56:13 Ex Adver journo now with PA just tweeted:
SWINDON: Morrison one of five strikers Town chasing on loan Five? Title: Re: Clinton Morrison Post by: Processed Beats on Thursday, September 22, 2011, 14:57:58 I took it to mean five potential targets, meaning five we're looking at, seeing who's available etc etc.
Not that we're actually going after ALL five. Title: Re: Clinton Morrison Post by: A Gent Orange on Thursday, September 22, 2011, 15:13:38 I took it to mean five potential targets, meaning five we're looking at, seeing who's available etc etc. Not that we're actually going after ALL five. Well so did I but it does seem a touch scattergun. Particularly since last time Paolo bought British he hadn't done his research on their attitude. Title: Re: Clinton Morrison Post by: PocketScience on Thursday, September 22, 2011, 15:15:54 On the subject of attitude, Morrison doesn't seem the sort to fall in line with Paolo's strict regime. If I remember rightly, when we played them last season he spent half the game moaning and having a go at his own players... seems a bit Leon-ish
Title: Re: Clinton Morrison Post by: Benzel on Thursday, September 22, 2011, 16:56:21 Paolo used to have a go at his team mates too. I don't think that's an issue, he has undoubted qaulity especially at this level too. I don't think having 5 targets is a cause for concern, if the 4 others are of the same quality as CM then that can only be good.
Title: Re: Clinton Morrison Post by: phelpsieboy on Thursday, September 22, 2011, 17:00:55 Its encoruaging to see us go after a big name like Morrison, but he does have a huge ego and probably never plans in playing in league two. hopefully the other candidates are of similar quality and experience, I imagine Danny "I used to play in the premiership you know" Cadamarteri is one of the 5.
Title: Re: Clinton Morrison Post by: Saxondale on Thursday, September 22, 2011, 17:07:26 Pity we didnt get him. According to the bbc caption on his picture
'Morrison has scored 1,640 goals in 570 career appearances' Hell of a strike rate!!! Title: Re: Clinton Morrison Post by: Bogus Dave on Thursday, September 22, 2011, 17:50:20 Thank fuck we didn't get him. Best days are well behind him, and shocking attitude to match
Title: Re: Clinton Morrison Post by: leefer on Thursday, September 22, 2011, 19:20:06 According to Twitter he has just said he didn't reject us...would love him here because he is a natural scorer.
And according to twitter the best manager he has played under is Alan Irvine :hmmm: Title: Re: Clinton Morrison Post by: Benzel on Thursday, September 22, 2011, 19:48:28 Seems pretty popular amongst Owls fans.
Title: Re: Clinton Morrison Post by: nevillew on Friday, September 23, 2011, 06:08:07 Seems pretty popular amongst Owls fans. Wouldn't give a hoot about their opinions Title: Re: Clinton Morrison Post by: Don Rogers Shop on Friday, September 23, 2011, 17:50:14 Wouldnt be suprised to see him still sign for us
Title: Re: Clinton Morrison Post by: leefer on Friday, September 23, 2011, 18:46:26 Wouldn't give a hoot about their opinions :D Dont have to act the twit twoo. Title: Re: Clinton Morrison Post by: Batch on Saturday, September 24, 2011, 10:48:33 He signed for Franchise on a month long loan.
