Is Morrissey sending one fan secret messages?

Dickie Felton is thought by some, including people close to the real Morrissey, to be the person known as TheRatsBack on Twitter and whose blog is "Following The Mozziah". As mentioned in the posts on Felton below, he is convinced that Morrissey sends him secret messages when performing live.

Here is Felton mentioning this delusion on his blog. Note this post is dated February 2010.



Here is TRB mentioning the same delusion on his blog.



And here is Morrissey's World giving a shout out to TRB on the blog. This message appeared around the time TRB began to claim the above, that Morrissey was singing "Ratty", not "Fatty", pointing other fans in the direction of a particular live recording. Curiously, no one else heard "Ratty".




While it's probable that TRB is Dickie Felton and since it's unlikely that Morrissey would send secret messages to one fan above any other (Julia Riley is arguably the biggest Morrissey fan and as far as it is known does not send messages to her in song), several questions arise:

-Is Dickie Felton also MW? This would be in line with TRB's numerous identities. Is this one big smoke and mirrors game where Felton pretends to be a fantasy version of his idol that sends secret messages to his fans, primarily himself? Felton's secret messages claim predate TRB's alleged discovery of MW.

-Or is Marcus Markou MW? Since Markou's preoccupation is with virtual worlds and satirical fantasy lives, could Markou be both MW and TRB, basing TRB's identity off of Felton's identity? (Since Felton is a high profile Morrissey fan in the UK, he would have come across him via the media or Morrissey fan sites.)

-Did Dickie Felton and Marcus Markou know one another before meeting at Markou's film test screening? Could they be pulling this sick joke on Morrissey's fans together?

-Or is Markou duping Felton like everyone else, playing it up for TRB with the Ratty comments on the MW blog?
