Aldershot striker Marvin Morgan has been warned he may face internal disciplinary action over comments he allegedly made on a social networking site. Morgan seemingly used Twitter to express his disappointment at boos he felt were aimed towards him when he was substituted in the Shots' 2-1 defeat to Hereford and chief executive Peter Duffy has confirmed the club are taking the matter seriously. "We have been made aware of comments allegedly made on Twitter by one of our players Marvin Morgan," he told the club's website. "I would like to take this opportunity to confirm that the club takes this matter very seriously and that we will be meeting formally with the player as soon as practicable to fully ascertain the facts. "Should the allegations turn out to be true then the player will be subject to the club's internal disciplinary procedures. "If these comments have been made then the club is, of course, extremely disappointed by them and wishes to distance itself from them completely. Comments made via social networking sites are the sole responsibility of the individual and they are therefore fully responsible for the nature of their comments and the consequences of them."
