Morris pens Pars contract

Dunfermline youngster Callum Morris has extended his stay at the club until 2014 after signing a new contract with the club.

Morris joined Dunfermline on a one-year deal this summer and has since made seven appearances for the Division One club. The 22-year-old former Republic of Ireland Under-21 international, who started out at Newcastle before spells at Blyth Spartans and Hayes and Yeading, says he is pleased to have impressed during his short time at East End Park and now hopes to use the club as a stepping stone to senior international football. "I am really enjoying my time at Dunfermline and was delighted to sign for an extended time," said Morris. "Hopefully playing regularly at this level can see me make the step up to senior international level."
