Macclesfield Town's new boss Paul Ince has made his first signing, snapping up Blackpool striker John Murphy on a month's loan.
The 30-year-old has scored 83 goals in 252 league appearances for the Seasiders, but has not featured at all this season for the League One outfit, having been troubled by back problems.
Macc turned to Murphy after missing out on Chester City's Drewe Broughton, who chose instead to join League Two rivals Boston United.
Murphy started his career with Chester, before moving to Bloomfield Road in the summer of 1999.
