Former Skipper Morsy Released By Robins
Friday, 12th Jun 2026 11:14

Former Blues skipper Sam Morsy has been released by Bristol City.

Morsy, 34, joined the Robins in January having become a free agent following his short-lived move to SC Kuwait last summer.

In total, the Egypt international made 15 starts and five sub appearances, scoring one goal.

Initially, the Championship club said Morsy was among a number of players whose futures would be decided once a new head coach was appointed with Michael Skubala having been recruited from Lincoln City and starting his role earlier in the week.

Skubala is the Robins' third manager since Morsy joined them, Gerhard Struber having been replaced by Roy Hodgson, who then left at the end of the season.

Wonder if he will go a bit full circle and go and enjoy his football for a couple of seasons back at Chesterfield with Paul Cook and prepare for coaching with badges etc.

Better still, bet he would own the Scottish Prem....under Kieran at Rangers or Celtic.....not that Kieran is going to work for a year of course.

Get him in the coaching set-up in a year or so when he has his badges - he'll set standards. Could be the start of a "boot room" type of set up at Town, like in the days of Shankly/Paisley/Dalglish at Liverpool.

Just because a player was inspirational on the pitch doesn't mean he will be a good manager. See Roy Keane, Bryan Robson etc etc.

Kind of a shame this one, what was set up last summer as a golden payday and a couple of years in Kuwait has really gone massively off the rails.

I like Sam, he was a warrior for us and is a really lovely fella, i hope he gets a contract somewhere

but RadlettBlue...

Bryan Robson and Roy Keane are miserable suds. They aren't people people.
That's why they never worked out as managers. Oh and Roy Keane expects every player to be at his standard.

Morsy is a whole different ball game. A clever, thoughtful, respectful individual who commands respect from the people around him.

He's not our manager now, but would be a wonderful addition to the backroom staff to learn his trade, like we have with Sone Aluko.

His Ipswich days are over as he is a leftie. And several recent events has shown us that a significant proportion of the fan base does not like lefties.

I think Morsy could do a job in the championship… great leader but why are people suggesting potential manager material? I’m not saying he isn’t but you need to have tactical, analytical and management skills… as has been mentioned, many a great player who was an on and off field leader have failed as a manager…he may be a great one, but his captaincy alone isn’t evidence he will

If Morsy is a leftie, and Ashton appears not to be, would that explain McKenna's decision?

Lord Mac, I think youre on the Money. And Blues1 responding exactly as expected from that cohort. Profane, dismissive, illiterate, intolerant.

BeattiesBackPocket, 'Far left'? Anyway.... I am responding to someone else on the same subject, so I am hardly making news out of a topic already in discussion.
