'Cardiff are on the verge of signing West Ham midfielder Ravel Morrison on loan'

The two clubs are in talks over a season-long loan deal for Morrison with a January recall clause.

All being well, the deal should be concluded on Monday night.

Morrison, who started his career at Manchester United, has made just two appearances for the Hammers so far this season.
The 21-year-old is to go on trial in January over claims that he threatened to throw acid in his ex-girlfriend’s face and have her killed.
He is also accused of threatening to blow up Reah Mansoor’s house during a four-year campaign of harassment against her.
Morrison is also alleged to have assaulted the 19-year-old and her mother, Parveen Mansoor, 39, in Salford in the early hours of July 27.'

do we really need a ticking time bomb???

just what we need

can we have a few boring weeks please with nothing happening apart from some football - please???

We dont have a manager yet, rather odd why we would be signing anyone

Tan signing?

Is this a sign, though?

West Ham and Orient near neighbours and all that!

Tan signing?

IS he in Wales?? Haven't seen him since last season lol, no interest now we're not in the PL

Tan signing?

It wouldnt be the 1st imo

Or Dalman because he finalises the signings i think.

who cares whose signing this is??


This is exactly what we need some creativity and spark in midfield this will be a very good signing!

Preparing ourselves for Daehli's exit. Leaves Burgstaller and Kimbo in disarray now

Squad seriously lacks pace. For all Ole's good signings, the squad is so slow, no wonder we've been craving getting Noone back and missing Fabio.

I agree he is what we need he is a great player when he is not being a troublemaker but it's just the management issue that's bothering me.

Source? Don't want to get too excited.

true....but do we want to be associated with somebody due to go on trial with what he is accused of?? Explains the "January Recall" clause lol

i know what he done.. i would assume there is actually a recall clause is january because west ham have a lot of african players going to the cup of nations

Is there any point if he wont be around in January! He is hardly going to get us anywhere near the top of the division by then. And throwing Acid in a girls mush as well as threatening to bomb someone's house are pretty serious charges. What on earth is the Club thinking on this one??

my point exactly, we shouldn't be associating our club with this.......

Don't know if this is right or wrong but one thing is absolutely certain and that is this could only be an "Emergency Loan" and subject to a maximum duration of 93 days.

Season long loans are "Standard Loan" and can only be made during the summer transfer window, or 1/2 season loans during the January transfer window.

If he signed today the loan would run out on December 23rd.

Exactly what we need

A player to play behind the striker/strikers who makes strong powerful runs into the box with skill and a finishing touch .
Will take Gunnarsson's current role IMO

We need a player with a bit of a bite as well

We don't like Malky's racist texts, but arrests for violence are ok ???

Forgot this guy tried to throw acid in a woman's face, fûck him.

Threatened didn't actually do it not condoning it just saying

This is exactly what we need! Injection of pace and a bit of quality in that area!

Hmmm I think I did mention four months ago that we were after him

Why would you take another players without a manager

Great signing.

Remember the way he tore Spurs apart for West Ham.

Why would you take another players without a manager

It's not just us who does it. Plenty of clubs do it, the top clubs in fact. Like Abramovich signed Torres behind the managers back. When a player is available you get him, even if you don't have a manager.

Great signing whoever the manager.
