Morrison animosity won’t faze Dowie

IAIN DOWIE will not allow fans’ feelings to derail his attempt to bring Clinton Morrison back to Crystal Palace.

Palace are expected to complete the signing of their former striker from Birmingham today after Morrison arrived at the club’s training ground yesterday to undergo a medical ahead of his reported €3 million switch.

Morrison has been poorly received by Palace supporters when he has returned to Selhurst Park with Birmingham in the past - but Eagles boss Dowie insisted such animosity would not affect his decision.
