Morrison started Clyde's opening league game of the 2003-2004 season due to Halliwell being suspended, but despite keeping a clean sheet, he was relegated to the bench for the next match.

He made only two appearances in the 2004-05 season, before joining Stranraer on a free transfer.He Played over 40 games for stranraer before a bust up with manager gerry Briton saw him leave the club.
