Seems that while there were reports of this, I cannot find anything other than rumour and conjecture.


It would seem that whoever posted this in Canada was completely wrong.

The DT ran with it being a reputable story, I won?t lose any sleep over it not happening.

I looked at some of his highlights from last years Canadian Premiership games - looked a bit lost on high balls

These stories come about on deadline day,be it homegrown or internationally. Some have a grain of truth in them and others are made up. To be honest, I'm glad we didn't splash the cash and would rather see if we could get Harvey Araujo for a reasonable price in the summer.

We don't need him if Williams and new boys can stay fit, pity about McFaz.

It's a big blow losing Kyle McFadzean,that's for sure,but hasn't everyone of our injuries caused havoc. From Will Grigg to Mike Jones, we've missed them all.
I'm hoping Araujo comes back into the fold and we can nick him permanently in the summer.

Maybe brutal but I?m putting McFaz in the out of sight, out of mind bracket. I only saw him play 80 mins of footy for us. It feels like that?s it. We move on

Agreed when you've got an injured 38yr old, why would you want to sign a 20 odd yr old with loads of potential and the possibility of selling him on at a big profit...

Doesn't make sense does it 🤦‍♂️
all we are saying, is give us ...a goal, or 2+

Its difficult to get deals done on Deadline Day at best of times, trying to do it when the selling club is miles away and potentially the player is not in this country either just amplifies things. Could be one of those things that resurfaces in the summer window if they still fancy bringing him in.

Any timescale been mentioned for his return?
I think I read Grigg was end of Feb. McFadz was possibly tail end of season, but if he gets another contract he'll probably not be risked so good to go next season.
Just don't recall a mention for young Harvey.
