Murphy released by Scunthorpe One of the possible Westwood replacement goal keepers Andy Thorn has an interest in, Joe Murphy, has been released by relegated Scunthorpe. Scunthorpe manager Alan Knill has revealed that Murphy and defender David Mirfinn had told him they did not want to renew their contracts and play in Division One Murphy has been on the Coventry City radar for several years and with the likelihood that current number one goal keeper Kieren Westwood will not agree to renew his contract, City will need a competent replacement and one that is available on a Bosman free transfer will be even of more interest. Andy Thorn had previously admitted he would be interested in signing the 29 year old Murphy should Westwood opt to leave Coventry City.
