O'Brien Loan Deal Scuppered

Last updated : 04 October 2006 By Sam
Mick McCarthy has already failed with one attempt to bring the highly rated Ireland international winger to The Molineux and Newcastle counterpart Glen Roeder has said that he is unwilling to let any of his players move on loan at the moment.

"I cannot afford to let any of our young players move out on loan, even though some of the young lads would benefit from regular games," Roeder told the official Newcastle website.

"We are competing on four fronts this season, and we have a few injuries at the moment.

"It is no secret that we do not have the biggest squad, and I do not feel I can let any of my players leave at this moment in time."
