He would've been a good signing.

He’s had quite a big reputation for a while now but I can’t remember him ever playing against us and thinking he’s a stand out player.

According to sky journalists.
Good player had a bit of a injury hit season last year,scored about 20 goals from midfield season before though for Scunny which is no mean feat!

Oh well,onto the next one.

Nope. People get confused because he has a blue and red background on his Twitter pic.

He was at SkySports about 5 years ago when I was there. He left a few years ago though.

As for Morris. Good player but there must be a reason he's never been taken by a bigger club. Always seems to have that reputation but no big club has really gone in for him.

Scunny fans at our place are sceptical on him, luxury player.  Almost rate him how our fans rate Marquis at times.  Probably means he's a good player who can at times offer nowt.

He went through a spell where he scored somthing like 13 goals in as many games or something ridiculous for a midfielder but not really set the division alight since. Probably would of been decent but we move on

Was he the one who scored that goal against Plymouth last game of the season?

Turned us down alongside Charlton and Pompey to sign for Fleetwood. One would assume they are splashing the cash.
He would've been a good signing.

Definitely, definitely, not turned us down.

We have never spoken to him, nor shown any interest in him. Complete fabrication.

Wouldn’t want him. His best years have gone. Luxury player. Not for us.
Really looking forward to Fleetwood financially imploding in 12/18 months. Feel sorry for their supporters when they are back in NPL league in 4/5 years time.

Only relaying what what published in the media, I know you can never trust them!

Gives us something to talk about though!  :chair:

Aren't Fleetwood owned by the guy that owns unbro so plenty of money behind them

Plenty behind them but he can’t bankroll the club in isolation, FFP rules will limit that
