According to Billboard (September 1st) Morrissey has split with his management. The story by Juliana Koranteng follows (link from David T. (different) and also posted by Danny_ in the forums): Morrissey Splits With Management September 01, 2008 - Global | Legal and Management By Juliana Koranteng, London Morrissey has split with artist management firm ie: music after just three months. An ie: music spokesman confirmed that it had parted company with the ex-Smiths frontman, but declined to give any details. Billboard.biz understands the management firm, headed up by Tim Clark and David Enthoven, will hold a meeting at its London office this afternoon (Sept. 1) before issuing an official statement on the matter. Morrissey joined ie:music in May (Billboard.biz, May 27), following his split with previous manager Merck Mercuriadis, ex-CEO of the now defunct music company Sanctuary U.S. Other acts managed by ie:music include Robbie Williams, plus Passenger, Craig Armstrong and Sia.

Robbie Williams sold Christmas and birthday wished in winter. Blahblahblah press releases are sent out about his rehab, girlfriend, soccer, him wanting to fuck women and so on. Concerts are organized that serve his ego but not the people who go to the concerts. All things that totally contradict what Morrissey stands for. I am glad he noticed that.
i:e music are not the right managing company for Morrissey.

Either he has too much money and/or he can't be arsed to play the record industry game. Or both.
To Mozza: That's all very well. Keep on being the "difficult" and individual star who we all LOVE to bits. But Please LET us have one more pure & dazzling Morrissey album soon-ish.
No more Greatest Hits albums - just a Brand Spanking new Moz album (to which we can all fall in Love with)!

Moz is deluded about the quality of his songs (Score:0)
he thinks 'father must be killed' is as good as any song on The Queen Is Dead!
he thinks managers/record companies/journalists/radio stations are conspiring against him.
if only he realised that at least part of the problem is the lack of lyrical and musical brilliance in his current/recent material...
