His having moved to London will precipitate his own obituary.

FA ask West Ham's Ravel Morrison about Twitter comments

The Football Association has written to West Ham's Ravel Morrison over recent comments made on Twitter.

The FA has given the 18-year-old former Manchester United midfielder until Monday to respond.

A statement on the West Ham website said : "We are aware the FA has written to Ravel asking for his observations regarding comments on Twitter.

"Ravel and the club will co-operate with the FA's request and have until Monday evening to respond."

It continued: "There will be no further comment from West Ham United or Ravel at this stage."

Morrison arrived at Upton Park in January on a three-and-a-half-year deal after moving through the youth ranks at Old Trafford.

The former Manchester United midfielder Ravel Morrison has caused controversy after posting a homophobic threat on Twitter.

After being provoked on the networking site, West Ham United's January signing tweeted: "Crack head ? Go suck out u little faggot your a guy that talks if u see me you try slap me I'm in manchester every week." The tweet was later deleted.

West Ham have not commented, but a spokesman for the Justin Campaign, which aims to tackle homophobia in football, was reported as saying: "It's disappointing to hear that yet another professional footballer in England has used homophobic language."

Obviously hit a nerve with that crackhead comment.

He is English. I bet they don't ban him despite the evidence being as clear as possible he was abusive

Have the FA banned him for eight games yet?

let me get this right...

this lad is moving away from manchester to london to escape the gangland culture ? goodluck with that.

i have a lad that plays for my under 10's side. He's a nutcase, hes got the worse attitude ive ever seen, he goes into tackles trying to break peoples legs, he doesnt do training drills and he sulks constantly. In all the time ive been coaching he's by far the worst behaved player ive ever seen.

but the kid can play. however, it wont stop me releasing him at the end of the season.

morrison will end up in jail or dead. united or any other top team dont need that sort of hassle.

I believe they had enquiries from nearly every club in the Premier League for him

Pathetic isn't it. Threatening and homophobic and yet nothing seems to be done about it.

Homophobia < racism

O.K

He has been charged under the same rule as Suarez (E3)

Every United fan I know absolutely raved about him, then he left for West Ham and all of a sudden, "...he's **** and was never going to make it. It's all about Paul Pogba now"

[Chris]

Macheda has called someone on there a "little stupid gay" aswell. What are they teaching them at Man Utd?!

So can we expect him to get an 8 match ban as well then...

Not a chance. 4 at most. Luis got 8 for his repeated abuse. This is a one off despite crystal clear and a lot more aggressive.
