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
Are Birmingham really rivals this season... they sit second bottom in the table, think if we sent him on loan there it would be to help Birmingham take points off our promotion rivals

Well that's the optimists perspective! What a thin squad we have now though. Igor and Johan won't be fit for this saturday (Johan on the bench) so unless this is about getting someone in who plays a more lacking position then it can't be a good move
No I'm just looking at the League table which never lies... And as BP has already mentioned with Joe Pigott, am sure there will be a 24-hour recall clause should he go on Loan somewhere so should Birmingham suddenly catch us up or should one of our players get injured then we'll be able to recall him.
Combine that with the fact that whilst just sitting on the bench Morrison is losing Match Practice (U21 Football probably wont do it) so should an injury happen then Morrison can just be thrown straight in
At Birmingham, any lack of match fitness and sharpness will quickly be highlighted by their struggling team and leaky defence. Still after 8-0, any score will be an improvement!
More likely that Lennon has been recalled as he's barely played at Cambridge and the decision is that his development would be better served with the U21s than not playing in league 2.
Not saying the Morro rumour isn't true, but this Pete O'Rourke has got a lot wrong on Twitter before....

He can still play un the U21s if he is out on loan so that isn't a factor.
Sky Sports understands Birmingham are set to complete a loan deal for Charlton defender Michael Morrison today. The 26 year old will be Gary Rowett's first signing as Birmingham manager.

Cue Bikey getting sent off or TBH injured in first five mins tomorrow knowing our present luck :-(
You make your own luck. Playing with fire I'd say selling your best back up CB, TBH & Bikey are not unbreakable and they will pick up cards. Morro was our 3rd if not 4th best defender and didn't get a starting place.
If there is 24 hour recall then I don't see the harm. Morro needs to be match fit in case we need him. Gomez on the bench will be ok as cover and everyone seems to forget Cousins is really a CH so cover there also. If it allows us to sign a striker then even better.

Not sure cousins was really a CH played there in younger years but was always more of a RB... before moving to midfield...

Until we reach fifty points, every club in this league are rivals.
Maybe Lennon's been recalled so Morro can go out on loan, therefore freeing up a bit of wage to bring an attacker in.
Or that Lennon has only made 3 appearances for Cambridge since august and Bob wants to loan him out to another side where he may get more games under his belt.
A poor decision, still a long way to go in this division and in football you can never know what can happen, we could be giving a end of season rival a player that could benefit them and could hinder us.
If he wants football I bet a lot of league one clubs will be happy to take him for decent money.
Morrison perhaps going, Pigott gone .. are we are back to a few out one in policy to balance the wages account ? .. it is obvious that we need another striker, especially with the frantic Christmas/New Year programme not so far away .. Peeters and the board must know this and are clever enough not to clutch at straws and bring in any old body .. I/we will await events with interest
Not sure that one out means one in. Hasn't been the case with other loans.
Also not sure if there would be a 24 hour recall. If Brum are paying his wages I doubt they would agree to that. This not like a youth player going to a lower league club.

If we can use his wages for a loan in midfield or up top then it makes sense.

he does need games

But it's not on the OS as yet anyway.
