The story is here, by the way: http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/14931176.stm Does anyone know why they've been denied clearance? What was the problem. I agree with WDWW, this isn't good news: he's not going to play much for us this season; a loan spell would give him Premier league experience and either put him in the shop window or let us see that he's worth a second chance at the Cottage. I think football league clubs are still allowed to make loan signings, so maybe we'll line up something for him with a championship side.
Thanks for the link Cap, was breaking news when I got it there so was no link to post. I think for the reasons you stated it would have been a win win situation for Fulham FC
He may get game time if we manage to stay in all 4 competitions for a spell, but other than that I can't see it. Perhaps he didn't get clearance for lack of games for us? I've heard of similar things happening (maybe that was with work permits?).
