    Shane McFaul

    McFaul has signed for Scunthorpe until January. Don't know if it's a loan or trial or what.

    Where else?

    I have a feeling it might only be a loan deal as I'm almost certain that our players' contracts last until January.

    McFaul is only actually on loan to Scunthorpe. If he moves abroad we're due a very small fee for him.

    Not unless he's on a two year contract.

    It seems that's changed. Even a year's worth something now.

    It's only if he moves abroad. Some domestic club training fee. It'd be a very small sum.

    McFaul going on trial at Brighton according to the Sun. Also says that Scunthorpe have offered him a contract.

    Brighton fans decidedly underwhelmed.

    Still, good move for McFaul and one which should raise the club's profile a bit more in England. Now to find the next Dicker/McFaul...

    Link fixed now.

    They're a Division Two side who've signed a player they've never heard of from a part-time Irish club. They want to spend a nice bit of cash on a big name player who'll propel them into the play-offs and further. Stands to reason really.

    McFaul made his Brighton debut at the weekend (some sources credited it to Chamberlain, but it was McFaul). Came on in the 90th minute, miscontrolled one pass badly, and that was it. Seems he'll be in around the team anyway ocne he gets match fitness back.

    Stockport go two points off the play offs after another good win today; Dicker started as per usual.

    Shane was released by Brighton today, after just that one senior appearance.

    What a waste. Don't suppose there's a chance in hell of him ending up back here.

    Either Division Three or one of the top six here, I'd say.

    Wouldn't say no to taking him back, of course!

    I presume as a free agent he is allowed to move to any club whether out side of transfer windows are not?

    Cant see him coming back, not many players do, do they?
    Could really do with him however!
