[Albion] Would you take Glenn Murray on loan?

[Blue Valkyrie]

Why go to South America when you could pick someone up in Patcham?

Because he is only available for 93 days, as he cannot be registered by another club as a permanent player, or half season loan, this season.

Has he made up with the Bournemouth manager? I know he has a new house in withdean.

 

[Blue Valkyrie]

I wouldn't rule out a 93 day loan for Murray sometime in February, but we do need a striker now as well.

 

[OzMike]

Yes, new regime and squad now.

As has been pointed out we could sign him but not register him as he has played for 2 clubs this season already. I am sure someone will know the answerr but to refuse to register him wouldnt that make the FL liable under Euro law as restriction of practice, stopping him doing his job.

You may be right, but until the FL rule is challenged and overturned by a court it will apply.

So far no player has gone through the long process of doing so, preferring to take their existing wages and wait until the end of the season for any move.
