Dons say no a second time to McArdle signing for Shrimpers

14 January 2012 09:16
Aberdeen defender Rory McArdle has been denied the chance again to join Southend United manager Paul Sturrock once again according to local media reports.

Dons say no to McArdle becoming a Shrimper, again!

With a contract to be renewed at the end of the season S24 speculated Thursday that SPL side Aberdeen may have to accept taht centre-back Rory McAdle is looking to make a move down south.

However, www.pressandjournal.co.uk have confirmed that Dons boss Craig Brown has turned down another enquiry from Southend United manager Paul Sturrock to bring the Northern Ireland defender to Roots Hall.

Will Luggy try again?

Shame if he doesn't, it would have made a change to all those strikers!
