Are you sure that's right, Dave? I would have thought there'd be no change in his employment situation, as he's still officially a Burnley FC employee, so he could play for us?

I agree, technically he will have the same employer, however his working conditions would change, he would get a game

All seems a bit confusing, but time will tell

Seems Martin from Leeds is the rumourists favourite anyway

...a pity. From what I've heard, he sounds like he would have been quite a useful acquisition for us.

Nicky Weaver has been released by Burnley

Good call. It re-iterates the point I was maiking about Penny having no chance of a game. Weaver was given a 6 month contract to cover Jensen.

I suspect Weaver's wage demands might be a bit high

It can't be, he's six foot four. He wouldn't fit in Stanley's changing room.

He is being chased by Premier & Championship clubs and decided to turn them all down to join Stanley. It's June 11th today not April 1st

It's supposed to be a Championship team keeper. Lee Grant is a league one keeper. Aslo available are Jonathan Lund from Burnley and Rhys Wilson from Swansea.

Johnny Lund could be a nice signing aswell.

He has had decent reviews when he has played for Clarets reserves

Cannot see Alan Martin coming back to Stanley, we will just have to wait and see!!

Haggis316 · 11-06-2010, 17:48

Lee Grant is still under contract at Sheffield Wednesday and has said he wants to stay even though he is now a League 1 goal keeper and not a Championship one.

His form in the last 2 seasons is such that he has been linked to a move to Premiership clubs and I think there would be an uproar if he left Sheffield Wednesday for less than a substantial 7 figure sum.

Haggis316 · 11-06-2010, 17:53

In passing I gather that Rob Burch the rival keeper Lee Grant saw off when they were vying for the number one spot at Sheffield Wednesday has just got a move from Lincoln to Notts County.
